| Abstract: This study investigates the influence of Instagram review dimensions—message credibility, source credibility (trustworthiness and expertise), review quality, and review quantity—on purchase intention for skincare products among Egyptian consumers. Using a simulated sample of 380 respondents, Pearson correlation analyses revealed strong positive correlations (r = .70–.82, p < .01) between all review dimensions and purchase intention, with message credibility showing the strongest association (r = .82). These findings highlight the critical role of credible, high-quality, and abundant reviews in driving consumer behavior. Implications for marketing, limitations of simulated data, and future research directions are discussed. | ||||
