HARJANTI explained that buying interest in a product arises because of the basis of trust in a product accompanied by the ability to buy products. One factor that can be used to increase buying interest in beauty products is the brand image or product brand image which is used as a reference for interest in buying a cosmetic product. According to Keller . 3: . , brand image is a consumer response to a brand based on the good and bad brands that consumers remember. The results of Gogi Kurniawan's research . found that brand image variables have a significant positive effect on buying interest. So that the better the brand image in the minds of the public, the higher the interest in buying the product and vice versa if the brand image of a product in the minds and memories of consumers has been tarnished or bad, the lower the interest in buying. In addition to brand image, price can also be used to influence buying interest. Price is the amount of money charged for a product or service, or the value a customer offers to benefit from owning or using that product or service (Kotler &. Keller, 2. Price greatly affects buying interest because the ability of consumers to make purchases by comparing the benefits he will get with the sacrifices incurred is very This is also in accordance with the results of research by Puspitasari et al . found that price variables have a significant influence on buying interest, so that the existence of affordable prices according to benefits can increase buying However, the results of this study are contrary to the results of research by Ulyah et al . found that price variables have a negative and significant effect on Buying Interest, which means that if prices go up, buying interest will go down and vice versa, if prices go down, buying interest will go up. In addition to brand image and price, online customer reviews can also influence buying interest through reviews provided by previous consumers. According to Ningsih . , said that online customer review is a form of assessment given by previous consumers on information from the assessment of a product in various aspects, so that consumers can find out the quality of a product. The results of research by Az Zahra et al . found that online customer review variables have a unidirectional influence on buying interest, so companies are required to pay attention regularly so that buying interest can increase. However, the results of this study are contrary to the results of research by Syah et al . found that in the Online Customer Review variable, there is one dependent variable that has no influence on buying interest, namely the valence review variable. This indicates that consumers perceive positive or negative statements that are dominant in certain product reviews do not affect buying interest. The Online Customer Review feature itself was created so that consumers who have bought products can provide experience about the products they buy so that potential buyers who will buy the same product get information from reviews given by previous buyers, and prospective buyers can also compare with products from other similar stores. This is what the Online Customer Review feature looks like in the Shopee marketplace. And with the rise of cosmetic trends today, one of the local cosmetic brands that is quite rising in name so that it attracts the attention of the author is Madame Gie brand cosmetics. Madame Gie is a brand from Indonesia that sells various beauty products that are known to belong to one of the artists. Giselle Anastasia.
