Is the Chinese market only for beauty giants? Discover opportunities for niche beauty brands

China, the major battlefield for beauty giants, has become the new beacon for international beauty market growth. For two decades, international beauty giants such as L’Oreal and Estée Lauder have been cultivating and saturating the market to an unprecedented level compared to the rest of the world. Facing the uniqueness of the Chinese beauty market and digital landscape, those beauty giants have grasped the opportunity to equip themselves with localized expertise and transformed China into a global innovation hub.

Nevertheless, compared to beauty giants, niche beauty brands have fewer existing resources and recognition from the market. So to win in the Chinese market, understanding the market pain points, mastering the digital ecosystems, and customizing a different approach for niche beauty brands are key.

Gen Z and Millenials in China are constantly craving for cool new perks, and this has set a positive tone for niche beauty brands such as Dr.Ci:Labo and Simihaze. Unapologetic and meticulous, unlike their predecessors, the Chinese new blood are constantly redefining norms and exploring individuality.

In this webinar, we will give an overview of the beauty industry in China and explore the possibilities for niche beauty brands in the east cosmo. What are the opportunities and risks for niche beauty brands? How to choose the right platforms and partners when entering the Chinese market? Join us for the webinar and learn how niche beauty brands can conquer the oriental giant.
