Influencers are increasingly impacting consumer purchase decisions, with 49% of consumers making purchases because of influencer posts.

1. Brooke Ashley Hall: An Influential Mom Who’s All About Family, Beauty, and Self-Care
Brooke Ashley Hall is a massive influencer with over 25M followers across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok – she’s garnered over 14.5M followers on TikTok alone. Her bio states she’s “intentionally aesthetic” and it’s obvious – just take one look at her well-curated feed. But Hall is also known for skillfully mixing that vibe with vulnerability, which has only endeared her to her loyal community even further.
Brooke specializes in home, beauty, and family content, and as a mother of three and former nurse, it’s evident that self-care, motherhood, and empathy are core components of who she is. In fact, the YouTube channel she runs with her family, The Beverly Halls, is one of the most popular family channels on the platform with over a billion views!
Brooke’s Amazon storefront is packed with some of her favorite products, ranging from things for her kids to clothing and great ideas for the kitchen and bedroom.
In her popular KHY unboxing video– which one commenter said was “the very first KHY review I enjoyed” – she tries on a new outfit (shirt, leggings, and jacket) from Kylie Jenner’s new brand and has since racked up over 34K likes on the video to date!
2. ttrippiereed: A Funny & Fashionable Gen Z Influencer
Julia Reed, also known as @ttrippiereed on TikTok, has over 2.1M followers on the platform where she’s known for her funny videos, love of fashion and makeup, and original music (she’s a pianist/composer). She proudly reps Gen Z as she showcases new looks and skits about what it’s like being friends with a “pick me” girl (which has over 3.9M likes) and when “those guys” like you.
@ttrippiereed these people dont get any better in college 😭 #middleschool #pov #fypシ
Her audience is predominantly female with the majority being in the coveted 18-24 age range, making Julia the perfect influencer for the Gen Z demographic. She prioritizes long-term relationships with the brands she likes, and she’s had notable collaborations with companies such as Baskin Robbins, Princess Polly, and Armani Beauty.
Julia’s authenticity and relatability is a huge factor in her brand partnerships. As a longtime fan of Aquaphor products, her recent brand partnership with the skincare brand was a full circle moment for her. The campaign included insights on how she’s used Aquaphor long before the sponsorship, to the point where it’s been with her during big life moments like her first kiss and high school graduation.
3. Games4two: You’ll Never Get “Bored” of These Board Game Lovers
Games4two is made up of partners Chris and Aly, who bill themselves as “the two-player board game couple” on TikTok where they have over 2.7M followers. If you’ve ever thought that board games are boring, you’ve obviously never seen their content because they’ve got an additional 3M followers on Instagram and 2.15M subscribers on YouTube who beg to differ.
Their fun and engaging videos routinely get millions of views (like this TikTok of them playing Orbito that got over 77.7M views!) as they play a wide variety of games. We all know the best way to try a new game is to actually play it, but watching Chris and Aly is the next best thing.

From dexterity/skill games, strategy games, balance games, word games, and more, you’ll find them all here on their channel and their Amazon storefront, which features over 100 of their favorites. Games4two even have a long-running partnership with Exploding Kittens.
Chris and Aly like to keep things interesting and they’ll often wager a friendly bet on the outcome of the game, such as loser makes dinner, loser washes the dishes, loser buys dinner, or loser cleans the bathroom – which only adds to the suspense. But one of the highest-stakes games they ever played was Catch the Moon – where the loser had to pay the mortgage!
