The beauty industry is buzzing with exciting new brands, and the competition is fierce! But who's making the biggest splash online right now?
The Rise of Designer Beauty Brands:
Data reveals that designer beauty brands are dominating the online conversation. Here's a closer look at the top players:
Miu Miu Beauty: With actress Emma Corrin as the face of its Miutine Eau de Parfum, Miu Miu took the top spot in September's brand vitality score (VIT). This metric, measured by Traackr, assesses a brand's social media presence and influence. But here's where it gets interesting: Miu Miu's success might be short-lived, as fragrance trends can be fleeting. Will they maintain their momentum?
Dolce & Gabbana Beauty: Close on Miu Miu's heels, D&G Beauty is riding the fragrance wave. Their scents, My Devotion for women and men, fronted by Katy Perry and Michele Morrone, are creating a buzz. But the real question is: Can they sustain this growth, or will they be a one-hit wonder?
La Beauté Louis Vuitton: This newcomer debuted in August and has already climbed to 36th place in the VIT rankings. But can they compete with established brands in the long run?
Aveeno: Focusing on dry skin solutions, Aveeno saw a massive 163% VIT growth, making it the only skincare brand in the top 10. But with so many skincare brands out there, can Aveeno keep up with the competition?
Color Wow: Owned by L'Oréal, like Miu Miu, Color Wow experienced a 150% growth. But will their success be enough to stand out in the crowded beauty market?
Dyson: This brand's innovative approach to hair care has propelled them to the 25th spot. But is their success solely due to their technology, or is there more to their strategy?
Glossier: Leveraging their partnership with the WNBA, Glossier introduced new lip gloss shades and a limited-edition hoodie, resulting in significant growth. But is this growth sustainable, or will they need to constantly innovate to stay relevant?
