HOW AN ACNE PATCH COMPANY CAPTURED THE GEN Z AUDIENCE
A LOOK INTO THE SKINCARE INDUSTRY
Today, I'm taking a look at Starface, an acne patch company that has continually brought an innovative social media strategy to the world, capturing the heart of all Gen Zs, one at a time.
Let's jump in!
The Audience Landscape
In 2021, Starface generated 192K average site visits per month, with 81% of traffic coming from mobile devices.
Outside of direct and organic search, social media drives the highest volume of traffic (21%) to mobile devices.
Since Starface’s target demographic is 18-24 year olds, the brand is consciously making an effort to have a presence on apps that are the most popular with the Gen Z age group.
