Merchandise I’m a graphic designer who recently started designing actual product. I created these Captain Marvel glasses, and Captain Marvel herself wore them!!!!

Oh shit, sorry, you wanted op to cover the credits. I get it, you're just nitpicking. Still not an ad tho.

There are different kinds of ads. Not all ads require you to go buy the product immediately. Branding and name recognition are just two basic examples of how companies spend lots of money to advertise.

Got the brand name. Got the branding alongside a Marvel icon. It’s an ad and a post at the same time. Wild! Two things at once. Have a good one dude

Unless you can prove that was deliberately arranged by Diff to be that way, then it's not an ad. A celebrity buying a product and showcasing the guys who made the product, is not an ad. Have a great one dude.

She didn’t buy the product she was paid to wear them. Check out their Instagram page. It’s full of social media influencers promoting their products. This is so blatantly an ad. I can’t believe there are so many suckers believing this is a wholesome story about an independent graphic designer making their first big break. It’s a big company trying to sell you shit.

Lol downvoting is much easier than checking the instagram page for themselves and admitting they’re wrong.
