Skin Wrkout needed awareness and desire for its skincare collections, and relevant traffic to its own online store, in a category where creator recommendations carry most of the weight.
Creator authority in the skincare niche matters more than raw audience size, so selection had to be tested against creative quality, audience fit and genuine category credibility.
Build a small approved creator roster against a detailed brand brief, then let performance decide where paid money goes.
Hoopla briefed and managed the roster, distributed product samples and personalised information, ran the content on Instagram, and amplified the strongest posts through paid social.
Hoopla reports 18 pieces of content, 320,000 video views, 2,844 engagements and $10,240 in media value. All four are agency figures with no published date range and no independent check.

Why Hoopla Marketing's strategy worked
- 1
Getting the brand to approve the creator roster before briefing removes the risk of a mismatch surfacing after content is already live.
- 2
Selecting on category authority rather than audience size fits skincare, where recommendations only carry weight from people with credibility in the niche.
- 3
Sending product samples with personalised information gives creators something concrete to react to instead of a script to read.
- 4
Committing paid budget only behind posts that already earned engagement ties media efficiency to observed performance rather than forecasts.
- 5
Reporting per creator makes it possible to retain the contributors who actually delivered and drop the rest.
