Audience Insight

One feed, many life stages: a teen and her mother follow the same account. Low-barrier mechanics kept the brand accessible across generations.

Brand Voice

A warm “Kotty Girls” persona built community, while 1-2-3 mechanics and a CTA in every post moved users from scroll to Shopee or store.

Strategic Value

Content designed as a full-funnel system: gamification drives engagement, challenges extend reach, deals convert, education builds loyalty.

A Face Mist as a Daily Ritual

Mera Indonesia · Crystal Glow Essence Mist

Process

1

Scout

Picked creators for audience fit and credibility, not follower count.

2

Brief

Co-wrote one brief (message, mood, hero shots), so every video sold the same idea.

3

Shoot

On set to protect brand codes while each creator kept their own voice.

4

Align

Ran feedback rounds until every draft was approved and on brand.

The Challenge

A face mist is easy to scroll past. Beauty buyers trust the creators they follow more than brand ads.

My Approach

Put the mist inside creators’ daily routines, so viewers saw a habit, not an ad, all under #BetterMoodExpression.

The Impact

Every creator video shipped on brief. During three months managing content, the Mera and Kotty accounts grew from 50K to 55K followers.
