✨ How to Get PR as a 1K Content & UGC Creator ✨
My last PR Post went viral hitting over 9k here on Lemon 8 but it’s no longer on my profile 🥺👀 Has anyone dealt with posts that were deleted without any notification?
Also I just made the Beauty Creator Community here on 🍋8 and we’ll see how it goes. Also hence why I’m sad about that post getting deleted 😩
BUTTT Back to how to get these packages! 📦
🛍 Victor & Rolf:
Gifted • No Obligations • Aspire IQ Platform (1k and Up)
- Of course the brand would like you to give a mention but there is no requirement. Alway keep in mind with collabs like this - brands may look to see if you post and may send you more items down the line. It’s not always true and some will send you but just wanted to push that out there. I received the Full Size Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid Perfume and this was insane! Aspire is 1k and up to join.
🛍 Candy & Tea:
Gifted & Redeemed • No Obligation • Glamily App
- I’ve been with the Glamily Community over the past few years and have seen them grow as a platform! How it works is you’d post beauty content just like here on Lemon8 and earn points to use in the gift shop. I’ve got tons of palettes, makeup tools, headbands, and even jewelry! I have a referral code/link if you guys are interested! Follower count doesn’t matter as you’re building a whole new community
Code on Sign Up: ‘RLPVM2’
🛍 Kiss Pro New York:
Gifted • Post Requirement • Ambassador Program
- I started off with Ruby Kisses Cosmetics and when they went global they canceled their Ambassador Program. Ivy Beauty (the big boss brand of the lil ones) emailed and asked if I wanted to switch over to another of their brands and I chose KISS Pro New York. I believe they all have PR Lists including the Mom of them all. The requirements were a little different because of the switch and it didn’t apply to me but for both Kiss Ny Pro and Ivy Beauty you must have 5K And up. When I was with RK by Kiss I had to have 1k but they accepted me at 900 followers so it all depends on your quality content. They do their programs on Fohr and Instagram, or you can reach out to them via IG DM as well! The PR List is usually every month but sometimes it slacks if they don’t have new product to send 🤍
🛍 I Envy by Kiss:
Gifted • Post Requirement • Fohr Bulletin
- Fohr has both gifted and paid opportunities available. The gifted ones come more often than the paid ones but I’ve gotten products from huge brands like Mac. This was I-Envy’s new Collection of Press and Go Lashes. I envy is connected with Ivy Beauty as well and this was the other brand offered to me. They offer PR List through IG as well on their brand page every year (see Kiss Pro New York above).
🛍 Madluvv:
Gifted • Slight Obligations? • Emailed & Grin Platform
- I was originally reached out by a meme we of the team via email for this brand and I became apart of their Influencer Partners through Grin. Whenever they have campaigns available they’ll reach out and ask if I want to apply. I apply through grin for my products. With this set of products in particular I was not required to post, but they gave me a Brow Stamp from the last campaign they wanted me to work with.
🛍 Dove:
Gifted • Text Review • Topbox Circle Platform
- Topbox is a great platform because you don’t have to post to socials. They have just launched adding social media campaigns to the program, but as long as I’ve been with them it’s always been a review on the brand site. I’ve gotten products from Dove, Olay, Caudalie and more! Just go to their site and sign up - No followers required.
🛍 Jo Malone Fragrance:
Gifted • Text Review • Skeepers/Octoly App
- I actually thought these were the full sizes and didn’t know Skeepers did sample products but here we are 😂 my fault for not reading properly! Skeepers is 1k and up and you must have a decent engagement rate - I believe it’s 2 or 3%. The brands range in niche but it’s mostly beauty - I’ve seen apparel, beauty, baby, home goods, and more. Skeepers is an App - first sign up you’ll have one credit for text reviews (site reviews) but if you apply to the influencer part and get accepted you’ll gain 4 more credits for a total of 5 you can use for campaigns - social post or text based reviews. All are required - but the requirement may vary for each brand and campaign/product.
🛍 Mac Cosmetics:
Gifted • Text Review • Bzz Agent
- Bzz Agent is a sampling program. No follower count required - just review products that fit your ‘style’. They’ll send emails every time they think something may align or fit with you and you decide to apply or not. These are text based reviews on websites as far as I’ve seen.
🛍 Anastasia Beverly Hills:
Gifted • Text Review • Bzz Agent
- Another hit from Bzz Agent and this was actually a new launch! I received the product a month before it was officially released which was awesome! 💜😩
Are you ready for the next one? I got a bunch more goodies and the platforms to go with!

As a budding content creator, leveraging platforms that connect influencers with brands is key to receiving PR packages. For example, the Aspire IQ platform caters to those with 1K and above followers, allowing creators to receive products like the Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid perfume without any strict obligations to post. Brands appreciate mentions but the focus is on building lasting collaborations. The Glamily app is another excellent choice, rewarding users with points for creating and sharing beauty content, irrespective of follower count. This creates a community-driven experience where you can earn gifts like makeup tools and palettes. It's essential to maintain high-quality content as brands often look to engage creators with impressive engagement rates. KISS Pro New York and I-Envy by Kiss both require around 1K-5K followers, but your content quality can tip the scales in your favor. Bzz Agent offers sampling programs for brands such as MAC Cosmetics and Anastasia Beverly Hills, focusing more on style alignment rather than follower numbers. The platform makes it easy to receive products in exchange for text reviews, opening doors for creators of all levels. Also, consider signing up for Topbox Circle, which primarily emphasizes product reviews without social media obligations. By diversifying your approach and utilizing these platforms, reaching out directly to brands, and nurturing your content skills, landing PR packages can become an achievable goal for you as a content creator.
The perfume omg! I really hope I can get on some PR lists - I have over 4K on TikTok and over 1K on IG - I’m really trying so hard…what are some of the easiest and best apps/agency recommendations?
