Micro beauty creators, 5,000 to 25,000 followers
A micro beauty creator sits between a nano's flat rate and an influencer's reach premium: 652 of them here, median 7,774 followers. 48.8% link a portfolio, so you can usually see prior paid work before you brief, and turnaround is faster because most have run a brand deal already.
The largest follower band among the 652 micro beauty creators is 5k to 10k, with 471 creators. 0 (0%) have fewer than 1,000 followers and 180 (28%) have more than 10,000, which is the split you would expect from an index built around UGC work rather than reach. 74 of them are on TikTok.

Questions about micro beauty creators
How many micro beauty creators are there?
652 at the 14 September 2026 export: 578 on Instagram and 74 on TikTok. Every one passed UGC Agent's qualification check, meaning the bio or recent content publicly advertises UGC work. The index grows with each search run, so treat the count as a floor.
Where are micro beauty creators based?
United Kingdom (171), United States (149), Chile (41) are the largest pools among creators who state a country. Country is taken from the public profile, so 199 of the 652 have no listed location or sit outside the recognised list.
How many followers does a typical micro beauty creator have?
The median is 7,774 followers, with the middle half between 6,075 and 10,488. 0% have fewer than 5,000 followers and only 28% are above 10,000. That is by design: the index is built around creators who make content for brands to run, not around reach.
When was this page last updated?
Counts and the 30 listed profiles come from the 14 September 2026 export of the index, and the page regenerates with each export. Follower figures are shown as bands because exact counts drift, and the listed profiles rotate so the same accounts are not on show permanently.
Should beauty creators be gifted or paid?
Gift when the product is low cost, the creator has under a few thousand followers, and you only want an organic post with no script. Pay when you specify a hook, need ad usage rights, or ask for a multi-week skincare check-in. Most brands in this niche run a mix: a gifted seeding wave to find who films well, then paid deliverables from the five or six creators who produced the best clips. Say which model applies in your first message so nobody wastes a week.
What disclosure rules apply to beauty UGC?
In the US, the FTC Endorsement Guides require clear and conspicuous disclosure of any material connection, including free product, and prohibit claims the creator has not experienced or the brand cannot substantiate. In the UK, the ASA and CMA expect #ad on gifted and paid content alike. Beauty carries extra weight because efficacy claims such as 'clears acne' or 'reverses wrinkles' can trigger cosmetic-versus-drug rules. Brief creators to describe what they observed rather than promise outcomes.
Which formats perform best for skincare and makeup?
For skincare, a two-part deliverable works well: a first-impression texture and application clip, then a check-in two to four weeks later showing the same area of skin. For makeup, a full-face application with a swatch moment and a wear test at hour six gives you both a hook and proof. Both formats cut cleanly into 15-second paid social variations, which is usually what the brand actually needs from the shoot.
Do beauty creators expect exclusivity?
Category exclusivity is unusual for nano and micro beauty creators, and asking for it without paying for it will end most conversations. A creator who films skincare content for a living will work with several brands in the same year. If you need them to avoid a direct competitor for a window, name the competitor list, keep the window short, and attach a fee. For a one-off gifted post, do not ask at all.
