How to Actually Make Money as a Lemonhead.LA Affiliate
A no-BS guide to turning your glitter obsession into a side hustle
Welcome to the cool side of commission ✨
So you're obsessed with Lemonhead.LA. You've converted friends to Spacepaste®. You’ve had strangers stop you to ask what’s on your face.
Congrats–you’re already doing the thing.
Now imagine if you got paid for it.
Welcome to our affiliate program: the easiest way to turn your influence (tiny or massive) into actual cash 💸
What is affiliate marketing, anyway?
Affiliate marketing = sharing your custom link or code and getting paid every time someone shops through it.
Your people get 15% off.
You get 10% commission on every order. If your link generates 5+ orders you'll automatically get bumped up to 15% commission.
No shipping, no customer service, no MLM weirdness.
Just real rewards for sharing products you already love 🛍️
Can you actually make money?
Short answer? Yep.
Plenty of our creators have made hundreds or even thousands just by posting what they're already doing: GRWMs, product recs, unboxings, chaotic close-up swatches, and messy bathroom selfies.
This isn't just for influencers with 100K followers. If your cousin, coworker, or TikTok mutual shops through your link–you get paid. Period.
Step 1: Know your glitter
You don’t have to be a pro MUA, but it helps to know what you're talking about.
✨ What’s the difference between Spacejam® and Spacepaste®?
✨ Why doesn’t Lemonhead.LA flake or fall off like other glitters?
✨ Which shades slap in daylight and which ones hit harder at 2AM?

Step 2: Pick your platform
Where are your people?
-
Instagram: Link in bio. Use Reels. Add your link to a pinned Story highlight. Make ManyChat your BFF.
-
TikTok: GRWMs, unboxings, shade recs, vibe check videos. The less filtered, the better.
-
YouTube: Swatch it. Wear test it. Apply it in the car before brunch.
-
Pinterest: Pin your looks, your fav shades, or moodboards that match your vibe (make sure to add your link to all your glitter posts- the sales you'll get will shock you).
-
IRL: Yes, even the real world. We've seen creators add their affiliate link to linktree and include that on their business cards or digital contact card.
Wherever you hang out–make it easy for people to shop.
Step 3: Start with your circle
The easiest sales are the ones closest to you.
Post a look on Stories and text the link to your BFF. Mention your discount link during your next FaceTime when your sister asks what glitter combo you're wearing.
This isn’t about going viral right away. It’s about momentum 💫
Step 4: Build your vibe–not just your following
Let’s be honest: people follow you because they like you. That’s what sells.
Consistency > clout. Whether you’re an aspiring MUA, a glitter goblin, or just someone who loves a subtle sparkle moment–your people will find you. Keep showing up. Keep tagging your looks. Keep talking about what you love.
The algorithm favors activity. Your link favors authenticity.
Step 5: Promote it–but make it ✨you✨
Drop your link in your captions. Mention it in your tutorials. Make a pinned post with swatches and your link.
But don’t overthink it.
People want real. A short story that says “YES it stays on during a dance floor breakdown–tap the link for 15% off” does more than a perfectly edited video ever will.
And when someone DMs you, “What glitter is that??” …you already know what to do.
Ready to get started?
You already wear the glitter.
You already have the influence.
Now it’s time to get paid.
👉 Join the Lemonhead.LA Affiliate Program and make your link famous. We’ll send the sparkle. You just be you.
