'Winter Skin Care Routines' Give Brands a Boost

TribeSkin425

With the onset of blustery, cold winter weather, consumers often reach for a surplus of skin care products to combat the dry conditions. 

According to Tribe Dynamics, content across social media boasting "winter skin care routine" information helped give several skin care brands a boost in Earned Media Value (EMV)—Tribe Dynamics’ proprietary metric for quantifying the estimated value of consumer engagement with digital earned media.

Notable products include:

  • Drunk Elephant's B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum, which earned $500,200 EMV;
  • Drunk Elephant's Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil, which earned $465,500 EMV; 
  • Drunk Elephant's Lala Retro Whipped Cream, which earned $411,600 EMV;
  • Tatcha’s The Water Cream, which earned $1.5 million EMV;
  • Glamglow’s StarPotion Charcoal Oil, which earned $322,200 EMV; and
  • Kiehl’s’ Midnight Recovery Concentrate, which earned $260,800 EMV.

Tribe Dynamics stated, "All six products increased their respective EMV totals month-over-month, averaging a 112% month-over-month boost in EMV that suggested heightened usage."
