3. Multi-functional Serum Products - The demand for versatile and affordable serum-based cosmetics that also offer hydrating, nourishing, and nourishing functions creates opportunities for brands to deliver extensive benefits and inclusive users.
Industry Implications
1. Beauty and Skincare - Hybrid cosmetic serums, solid watermelon serums, and bronzing protective serums are examples of how the beauty and skincare industry are innovating in response to market demands.
2. Packaging Design - Natural and ethereal serum branding highlights the importance of packaging design and creativity in helping brands reach their target customers.
3. Cosmetics and Fashion Retail - Multi-functional serum products offer opportunities in the cosmetics and fashion retail industry to fulfill customers' demand for a convenient, time-saving, and beneficial experience.
