Challenges
NYX Cosmetics DE has a large, engaged and creative audience, and wanted to share high volumes of inspiring content onto their social channels, to celebrate German makeup artists and customers. By using localised content they can keep up with local trends and makeup looks, and tailor their content to align with what is highly engaged with on their channels. The challenge in all of this is the process of finding this content. It can be very time-consuming to find localised and relevant content from a pool of global hashtags, and alongside this, ensure that as a brand they could share this content without risk, with legal rights to the imagery.
StoryStream Solution
NYX Cosmetics DE chose StoryStream to collect real customer content at scale, whilst using StoryStream’s AURA AI technology to immediately find the high-quality content and filter by German language. NYX Cosmetics products can easily be seen by AI recognising the NYX logo within images making it a possibility to find product images as well as make-up looks.
Rights are all managed at scale using StoryStream’s rights management tools to gain legal and secure rights automatically.
