The Animated Stars section adds a subtle, moving star effect to your product page background. It’s a great way to highlight areas you want people to notice—like your product’s main benefits or unique value.

Why is this section important?
Visual touches like this help your page stand out and keep shoppers engaged. This section is especially useful when you want to break up content and make things feel more premium or dynamic without being too distracting.

Where to use it
Most stores place this section below the fold, usually above or below the main feature list or “why buy” section.

How to add it
You can add this section in two ways:

  • From the left-hand section list in the Shopify theme editor, click “Add Section” → search for Animated Stars

  • Or scroll to the bottom of the page preview, click the blue + icon, and select Animated Stars from the popup


Tip: Try pairing this section with a bold product benefit or headline. It helps guide the customer’s eye and adds a high-converting visual break.
