Abstract

In recent years, many industries around the world have been affected and impacted by the epidemic. Cosmetics market growth has slowed significantly since 2022. Under the influence of epidemic, the cosmetics industry as a whole bids farewell to high growth under the impact of the epidemic and then enters the era of R&D (research& development) from the era of marketing. Therefore, this paper explores the changes and impacts of the cosmetics industry before and after the epidemic by collecting annual sales, number and distributions of companies and other data on the Chinese cosmetics market, and analyzing and comparing these data between different companies and brands. The outbreak of epidemic lead to the closure of offline brick and mortar shops, stagnant logistics and also the economic downturn. These has reduced traffic to the offline channel for cosmetics, while fueling rapid growth in online sales of cosmetics. The cosmetics industry should still be on the up and up in the future, but time will have to wait to prove this.
