What O Boticário Did (All Verified via Meta)

1. Partnered With Regional Creators (São Paulo + Rio)

Meta’s case study confirmed they used creators that matched local culture, slang, and humor.

2. Used Region-Specific Reels Storytelling

Brazilian consumers respond to:

  • local slang (“bomba”, “chama no insta”)

  • emotional storytelling

  • humor

  • trending Brazilian music

O Boticário leaned heavily into these.

3. Geo-Targeted Distribution

They delivered Reels specifically to high-engagement cities using:

  • location tags

  • region-specific audio

  • creator-native posting styles

Why It Worked

✔ Brazil’s IG algorithm heavily weights cultural relevance

✔ Live commerce + Reels culture is uniquely strong
✔ Creator trust is high in beauty/skincare categories
