Styling The Section
The Before After Slider section is a powerful visual tool to highlight transformations, product effectiveness, or customer results.
It lets visitors drag a slider to compare two images, typically showing progress or improvement after using your product.
This section is especially effective for beauty, fitness, or lifestyle brands, as it delivers instant visual proof that builds credibility and trust. Use clear, high-quality images and short captions to make the comparison stand out.
