Abstract

Beauty influencers are those who review beauty and skincare products on social media platforms, like Instagram. Generally, to persuade their followers, beauty influencers use their faces as their primary asset when reviewing beauty products. They do this by displaying a photo or video of their face before and after using a product to show the differences and changes that result from the use of beauty products. This study focuses on a niqabi influencer who reviews beauty products without showing their full face. To understand the persuasive communication model utilized by this niqabi beauty influencer, the researchers conducted a qualitative content analysis of the posts on the Instagram account @kinans.review, which has more than 145,000 followers. This study describes and analyses how @kinans.review uses persuasive messaging to build trust by developing source credibility without showing their full face. This research can contribute to researchers and influencers who want to understand the use of persuasive communication in the creation of social media content.
