About Timeless Skin Care

Timeless Skin Care is a US-based skincare brand founded in 2009 by Veronica Pedersen, built around a belief that effective skincare does not need to be complicated or expensive. What started with a single product, 100% Pure Hyaluronic Acid, has grown into a full lineup of serums, eye creams, facial sprays, oils, and accessories trusted by millions of customers worldwide.

Every product is formulated with high concentrations of clinically studied active ingredients in clean, simple formulas made in the USA in small batches to guarantee freshness and potency. No parabens, sulfates, dyes, or artificial fragrances, just the actives that actually do something: Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid to brighten and defend, Coenzyme Q10 as an anti-aging trifecta, Matrixyl peptides to address fine lines, and hyaluronic acid for deep hydration. The catalog spans serums, eye creams, facial sprays, pure line oils, and bundles, with over 32,000 five-star reviews across the range.

Timeless approaches skincare as an education-first brand. The Timeless Lab blog, ingredient glossary, and skincare quiz reflect a philosophy that customers who understand what is in a product and why it works are the ones who see results and stay. That educational DNA runs through everything the brand builds, including how it communicates on its product pages.

The Challenge

Timeless Skin Care sells products whose value lives in their formulations. A serum with three stable forms of Vitamin C, a peptide complex clinically shown to stimulate collagen production, a hyaluronic acid molecule at the right molecular weight to actually penetrate the skin: these are meaningful distinctions that ingredient-savvy shoppers care about. But communicating them through static images alone creates a gap between what the product does and what a new visitor understands when they first land on the page.

That gap matters most in a category where trust is built slowly. The skincare market is crowded with bold claims, and prospective customers increasingly rely on the experiences of people like them to navigate the options and form an opinion before they buy. A product page that shows a bottle and a bullet list of benefits is not the same as one that shows a real person describing their skin before and after four weeks of the Vitamin C serum. The brand had the social proof: it did not yet have an effective way to put it in front of shoppers at the point of decision.

Performance was also a constraint. Previous video player implementations had created page load issues on Shopify, making video content difficult to scale without degrading the experience for the customers Timeless had worked hard to earn. Any solution had to maintain the speed and reliability that a high-traffic Shopify store requires.

The Solution

Timeless Skin Care implemented Videowise across multiple placements on their Shopify storefront: video background widgets and a shoppable video carousel on the homepage and a video carousel on product detail pages.

On the homepage, the shoppable carousel introduced new visitors to the brand through real customer video from the first scroll. Shoppers could watch, engage with the content, and add directly to cart without leaving the homepage, collapsing the distance between discovery and intent. For a brand with an education-first identity, opening the experience with authentic customer voices rather than brand photography was a natural extension of how Timeless already talks to its audience.

On PDPs, the carousel brought UGC and how-to video content directly onto the product page, showing the skin conditions each product addresses, the texture and routine fit of the serum, and before-and-after context that static images cannot provide. Customers describing their experience with specific products, in their own words, on the product page, gave hesitant shoppers the peer validation they needed to move from reading ingredients to adding to cart. How-to videos reinforced the brand's educational positioning, guiding shoppers through the right application and layering method at the moment they were evaluating a purchase.

Videowise's lightweight infrastructure resolved the page speed issues Timeless had experienced with previous video tools, allowing the team to scale video coverage across the catalog without compromising the Shopify experience.

The Results

Results were validated through controlled A/B testing on both placements.

Homepage shoppable video carousel :

  • Up to +7.09% revenue per session
  • Up to +5.69% average order value
  • Up to +4.99% orders
  • Up to +1.57% conversion rate

PDP video carousel:

  • Up to +9.33% revenue per session
  • Up to +6.39% conversion rate
  • Up to +5.74% orders
  • Up to +3.7% average order value

Shoppable video delivered meaningful lifts across every core commerce metric on both placements. For a brand where purchase confidence depends on understanding both the ingredient science and the real-world results, putting authentic customer video at the center of the product page turned education into conversion.
