The beauty and cosmetics industry is one of the oldest in the world. Longstanding distribution and purchasing methods in this sector have resulted in significant consolidation in the market, leaving a few big players to dominate. However, the sector is undergoing a significant change in both how products are distributed and how they are sold.
Digital-only, single-brand beauty and cosmetics firms are rising in popularity, leaving traditional business methods vulnerable to disruption. According to a 2017 Deloitte study, online sales and specialty stores are threatening traditional sales channels such as department stores. Consumers are also beginning to show signs of reluctance to engage in mass-marketing strategies.
These behavioral changes may appear to be alarming, but they can present significant opportunities. Brands are now able to reach their customers directly using new, widely available commerce technologies, effectively circumventing traditional channels. Business owners and brands can now easily enter new markets and grow in a way that was previously impossible.

Millennials, who are more likely to engage with the latest technology tools during their buying journey, account for an increasing portion of the marketplace.

With beauty chatbots, users are able to have a conversation much like they would with an in-store human assistant and receive beauty information, tips, and recommendations. The bots ask users a variety of questions, and once the users respond, the digital beauty consultation begins.
Several beauty distributors and brands are adopting AI-powered chatbots to productively engage with their customers. Sephora has created an intuitive beauty chatbot which allows customers to try out a vast range of makeup shades and tones simply by uploading a selfie into the messaging interface. CoverGirl pioneered the use of the world’s first influencer chatbot, Kalanibot, which is modeled on Instagram influencer Kalani Hilliker, a teenage dancer with over 4 million followers. With the world’s leading beauty brands embracing chatbot technology, it marks the beginning of the trend toward more personalized and intelligent beauty experiences.

The health and beauty industry is number one when it comes to influencer marketing. Consumers pay more attention to celebrity endorsements than they do to company advertisements, and they consider these celebrities to be their friends rather than distant celebrities. In addition, recommendations and reviews from fellow consumers and friends or family is more genuine of all. That’s why user-generated content is so important for brands looking to attract more loyal customers.
