Common Questions from Beauty Brands
Everything you need to know about authentic beauty marketing
How do you ensure creators actually use our products long-term?
Our platform requires creators to disclose long-term product use. For skincare campaigns, we recommend 4-8 week testing periods for authentic before/after documentation. Creators who violate authenticity requirements are removed from the platform. You can also request proof of prior use or see creator portfolios showing their genuine product preferences.
What about FTC compliance and skincare claims?
All creator contracts include FTC compliance clauses requiring clear disclosure (#ad, Paid Partnership tags). For skincare products, we provide built-in disclaimer templates for sensitive skin warnings, patch test recommendations, and claim verification. Before/after content includes required disclaimers ("results may vary," individual results). Our legal team reviews all skincare campaign briefs to ensure compliance.
Can we specify the type of tutorial content we need?
Absolutely. When creating your campaign, you can specify: tutorial length, specific techniques to demonstrate, close-up shots required (swatches, texture, application), before/after requirements, routine integration context, lighting standards, and whether you need multiple looks/applications. Creators submit content for your approval before publishing, and you get 2 revision rounds to ensure it meets your quality standards.
How do we find creators with specific expertise (dermatologists, estheticians)?
Our creator profiles include verified expertise badges. We verify certifications for: licensed estheticians, dermatologists (MD/DO), nurse practitioners specializing in dermatology, makeup artists (licensed), and cosmetic chemists. These creators typically charge premium rates ($1,500-$8,000) but provide exceptional credibility for scientific skincare campaigns. You can filter specifically for credentialed creators when building campaigns.
