The development of digital technology has transformed consumer behavior in making purchasing decisions, including for beauty products such as sunscreen. Consumers are increasingly relying on online information obtained through electronic word of mouth (e-WOM), such as online customer reviews and beauty influencer reviews. Information obtained through e-WOM is considered credible as it is based on real user experiences, thereby influencing consumer trust and purchase decisions.
This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected through an online survey using a four-point Likert scale questionnaire and accidental sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis and multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS.
The results of the study indicate that 120 respondents perceive customer reviews as useful information in assisting the selection of sunscreen products, while the expertise of beauty influencers plays an important role in enhancing review quality and consumer trust. In the purchase decision process, respondents tend to rely on information obtained from customer reviews and beauty influencers. Simultaneously, customer reviews and beauty influencer reviews have a significant effect on sunscreen purchase decisions (64.5%) with customer reviews being the most influential variable (? = 0.512). These findings are expected to serve as a basis for optimizing electronic word of mouth (e-WOM)-based marketing strategies.
