Beauty & Cosmetics
See how beauty & cosmetics brands on Postscript are using SMS to convert shoppers, increase lifetime value, and improve customer support.
Personalize your customer journey with Keywords
Beauty is personal. Your SMS strategy should be, too. Start with a welcome flow that segments subscribers based on skin concerns or other preferences. From there, you can send personalized product recommendations and beauty tips.
Launching a new moisturizing serum? Send a targeted launch campaign to subscribers who triggered the DRYNESS keyword at any point in the past.
Turn hesitant shoppers into raving fans
Whether it’s picking the best serum for their skin, or choosing the right foundation shade, most customers need a little bit of help from an expert.
Browse abandonment, cart abandonment, or post-purchase flows are all opportunities to educate and nurture customers. With guides and quizzes, you can even reduce the number of customer support tickets.

Retention Marketing Manager
“We really want to make sure we're making a connection with people that's going to last. We're not just saying, ‘Buy this product,’ all the time. We're connecting with people on a level that’s outside of our product.”

Ellie Carroll
Enterprise Account Executive
"I’ve specialized in ecommerce strategy in the beauty space for almost a decade, and decided to focus on SMS once I saw what an amazing tool it was for my clients. In my eyes, SMS is second to none in terms of not only driving incredible revenue with strong ROI, but also building community and fostering brand loyalty. Even something as simple as sending content to subscribers based on skin type, skin concern, or interest makes a huge difference in how users interact with your brand."
