YouTube, the most representative video sharing platform, is used by millions every day. New videos across various fields, such as daily life, beauty, games, eating, fashion, and music are constantly being uploaded. Among the content available on YouTube, beauty-related videos are particularly popular. Creators who produce and share beauty-related content on online media platforms are known as beauty creators. There is a significant amount of beauty-related content produced in response to high public interest. Most of this content focuses on sponsored advertisements related to product relevance and attitudes, such as makeup tutorials, hairstyle creation, and new product reviews. However, there is a lack of research on the diverse environments of self-media beauty creators and basic makeup production techniques. This study investigated the content composition of individual media YouTube beauty creators and examined the current status of YouTube beauty creators in Korea. This research is necessary for the development of diverse content and videos by beauty creators. Based on these findings, a makeup technique was developed for YouTube beauty creators, considering the production environment of marketing content and video production steps. This study aims to expand and specialize the broad range of content environments of beauty creators and develop makeup techniques that can be effectively used in YouTube content production.
