Why it worked
The video works because it's a visually satisfying and aesthetically pleasing tutorial set to trending audio. The step-by-step process of creating the intricate nail art is engaging, and the 'reveal' of the finished nails, matching the sweater, adds to the overall appeal. The use of popular audio helps with discoverability and engagement on platforms like TikTok.
