The problems identified from this study are the lack of marketing strategies through advertising so that consumers lack product information which causes minimal purchases of Scarlett products, and the emergence of many new skincare brands with better quality makes competition even tighter, while making it difficult for the Scarlett Whitening Brand to become the most favorite brand. The purpose of this study was to determine the Brand Ambassador and Brand Image mediated by Trust on Purchase Interest of Scarlet Whitening Products. The method used in this study is an intervening variable using a statistical processing application. The results showed the t-statistic value of brand ambassadors on purchase interest of 13.024> t-table 1.96. the t-statistic value of brand ambassadors on purchase interest of 10.457> t-table 1.96.
