How-to

How do I make a TikTok ad without showing my face?

Short answer

Use an AI presenter. On DINEX UGC you type what your product is, edit the AI-written script, choose a presenter (John, David, Joy or Grace), and download a captioned vertical 9:16 video that you can post on TikTok or run as an ad. You never appear on camera, and a 20-second video costs ₦15,000. Other faceless options — product-only footage, slideshows or voice-over on stock clips — work too, but a person talking to camera is the UGC format.

Step by step

  1. Create a free account and save your business (name, colours, logo).
  2. Choose 20 or 40 seconds.
  3. Describe the product in one or two sentences.
  4. Edit the script. Start with a strong What is a hook in a video ad in the first sentence and end with a clear What is a call to action (CTA).
  5. Pick a presenter and a caption style.
  6. Download the MP4 and upload it to TikTok like any video, or use it in TikTok Ads Manager.

Does the video fit TikTok?

Yes. Videos are vertical 9:16, which is TikTok's recommended orientation for in-feed ads (it lists 9:16 at 540×960 px or larger). The same file works for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and WhatsApp Status.

Other faceless formats

  • Product-only clips: film just your hands and the product. Good for demos, but needs filming.
  • Slideshow or text-on-screen: quick, but less personal.
  • Voice-over on stock footage: cheap, but often feels generic.
  • AI presenter: keeps the human, talking-to-camera feel without you on screen.

Can I use my own voice?

Not currently — the presenter's voice speaks your script.

Can I make several versions?

Yes. Each version is a separate video, which is a good way to test different hooks.
