Question

Social Media Designs

What tool do most users use to create  a social media ad? I create mine in Illustrator, but I notice when I look on the behance site, those ads are absolutely 100% mind blowing! Is there some sort of optimization that needs to happen or perhaps a gradient map being placed on top of the ads? I'm at a loss can someone steer me in the direction of creating great social media ads? 

 

Thanks.

I actually did a google search and to my surprise most of the answers were Indesign is used to make great social media ads along with photoshop.  I probably didn't word my original question very well, but I was ultimately wondering more about where to create the ads that look more vibrant than mine.

I'll post my example and then a sample I see from behance. If that's not misusing the persons work. It's just to help me undersand.  My ad seems boring compared.

You have that large beige area on the left side. I think you could improve the ad when you make that a brighter color, possibly the pink you used in the text or the pink lipstick.
