The Body Shop Bloggers

Headstream’s objective was to raise awareness of The Body Shop with beauty bloggers, reignite passion for the brand and build strong long-term relationships.

To achieve this we carried out a full audit and analysis of the beauty blogosphere, monitored and invited relevant bloggers to an initial event hosted by The Body Shop in April.

The result was an unprecedented level of activity on blogs and Twitter prior to, during and immediately after the first event in April. There were very positive reviews of a number of products resulting in ongoing blogger outreach activity and a second event in August which tripled the number of bloggers engaged by the brand.

We now have an ongoing relationship with 60 key beauty bloggers and YouTube vloggers on behalf of TBS and have used the events to promote different product ranges and initiatives for the brand.

Last Thursday, Headstream hosted the second Body Shop bloggers event at Sketch in London. We invited over 40 key beauty bloggers to the event, who learnt about the new Body Shop fragrance Love Etc and how it was created and the gorgeous new Autumn Trend Make-up from Chase Aston.

It was a fantastic event in a stunning location, which was well received by all the bloggers resulting in lots of excellent reviews! Have a look at some photos from the event on our Flickr page.

Using social media in cosmetics

Blog party 5

It was interesting to read an article on Cosmetics Design Europe  recently which discusses how cosmetic brands are not utilising social media in their marketing activity. 

‘While many cosmetic companies have some presence in social media, Viton said very few are truly committed and many approach it in the wrong way.’

However at Headstream we have been successfully utilising social media by engaging bloggers by hosting numerous blogging events for our clients L’Oreal and The Body Shop. This has given bloggers a real insight into the beauty industry, which resulted in positive endorsements online. We also contacted bloggers who couldn’t attend the events and asked if they would like to choose some products to review, which again resulted in positive coverage and awareness online. We are really pleased to be planning two more events to continue building relationships with bloggers and promote some exciting new products this autumn.
