The origin of beauty filters on Instagram

Instagram filters were initially popular for their beauty effects. Indeed, it is possible to smooth the face with an Instagram filter. It is also possible to apply different makeup on the faces through the Instagram filter. For example, one can see themselves applying mascara, foundation, lipstick or any other form of makeup.

The evolution of Instagram filters, for brands

Instagram filters were then available to publish for business accounts and so Instagram filters for brands appeared. The major beauty brands and cosmetic brands have directly grabbed it. Let’s mention L’Oreal Paris or Gucci which offers different filters for live fitting and especially for lipstick fitting in augmented reality.

Shopping Instagram accounts

Hoe does shopping on Instagram work?

With the arrival of the shopping function on Instagram, brands now have the opportunity to set up an entire online sales system. Indeed the shopping function on Instagram is a facet of Instagram among Reels, IGTV, Instagram posts and story. This shopping function will allow you to display all your products in a very elegant way and completely integrated with the Instagram app.

Once you’ve added all your photos, descriptions and prices, you’ll need to link the buy button with the buy button on your website. This way when a user clicks on one of your products to buy it on Instagram, a pop up taking up the entire screen size will pop up and display the final purchase page of your branded product on your site. This way the user buys on your site but via the Instagram platform.
