This study aims to identify the impact of each of these factors on the purchase intention of Skintific skincare products. The research objectives are to determine: (1) the effect of social media marketing on purchase intention, (2) the effect of celebrity endorsers on purchase intention, (3) the effect of electronic word of mouth on purchase intention, and (4) the simultaneous effect of these three variables on purchase intention. This study employs a quantitative approach, collecting data through a questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents from Generation Z in Pekanbaru. The selected respondents are those who have purchased and used Skintific products.
