Meta's sample Facebook Feed ad for La Lueur face wash with three parts numbered: 1, the primary text above the image ending in See more; 2, the headline Daily foaming face wash under it; 3, the Shop now button. Beside it, Meta's text recommendations: primary text 50 to 150 characters, headline 27 characters.

Meta's own sample ad: the first lines of primary text show before “See more”, and the headline sits beside the button.

12 underwear ads, and why they work

One ad per brand, longest-running first. We quote the copy as written and link to the ad.

    “You guys suck. Everything on your sight is sold out.” - Sorry souls who see these ads and keep waiting to buy. We’re going broke and Zuck’s getting rich showing you these ads. …here’s your last reminder before we start penny-pinching.

    The Pittsburgh Penguins | NHL Unisex Onesie

    Shop now

    Why it works. Opens with an angry shopper's quote about sold-out stock, then jokes about its own ad bill. The joke turns scarcity into a laugh, not a push.
