Nothing quite piques our interest more than campaigns that promote self-love AND inclusivity. As children of the 90s, the “beauty standards” we grew up with are, thankfully, going out of style. Bye-bye, unrealistic Victoria’s Secret standards… Hello, REAL self!
This plays a huge part in why Rimmel London’s recent TikTok campaign #KindandFree was and is successful. Here are some ways you can replicate their success:
- Create a relatable, fun hashtag challenge
- Leverage User Generated Content (UGC)
- Be inclusive in every way
- Encourage authenticity and individuality
- Trust your content creator’s video creation prowess – they know how to best speak to their audience
- Align your brand with values of self-love and self-acceptance
- Celebrate differences, imperfections and unique qualities
Why does it matter?
There is a very strong cultural shift with what the definition of beauty is. With TikTok, “manufactured” beauty performs poorly in comparison to their no-filter, unique and effortless counterparts. Innovative brands understand this, and now so do you!
