KUALA LUMPUR, May 15 (Bernama) -- Mary Kay Inc has launched its Global Social Squad (GSS) Pilot Program, an initiative aimed at strengthening digital engagement by empowering Independent Beauty Consultants (IBCs) as brand advocates and social media content creators.

The programme, which will be introduced in selected markets worldwide in 2026, is part of the company’s broader strategy to expand its presence in an increasingly social-first business environment and enhance engagement with consumers across digital platforms.

According to Mary Kay, the GSS brings together IBCs who are recognised for their creativity, authenticity and social media capabilities to produce digital content, participate in global campaigns, and share social media strategies with their communities and fellow consultants.

Mary Kay Chief Opportunity and Sales Officer, Tara Eustace said the programme is intended to help consultants strengthen digital storytelling and consumer engagement in a social-first business environment.

In a statement, the company said the initiative is also expected to support brand visibility, increase product discovery through user-generated content, and strengthen peer-to-peer learning within the Mary Kay community.

A total of 73 members have been selected for the pilot programme, representing 15 markets across North America, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Europe.

Participants will receive exclusive merchandise, take part in content-based challenges, and gain access to training and development opportunities throughout the year.

Mary Kay said the pilot programme will allow the company to evaluate and refine the initiative ahead of a potential wider rollout beginning in 2027 and beyond.

The global leader in beauty and entrepreneurship added that the programme forms part of its efforts to develop a scalable business model that combines entrepreneurship, creativity, and personal connection.
