Beauty Industry Consumer Behaviour Report 2022: How we conducted our survey
To understand beauty consumers in Singapore better, Daily Vanity has been conducting a large-scale beauty industry consumer market survey annually – this being the eighth year we’ve run this study. We are also the official data partner for Statista, the Global No.1 Business Data Platform used by many marketers and business leaders around the world.
Over S$200,000 was poured into advertising, data collection, cleaning, crunching, and software development to help consolidate information that’s highly sought after by many marketers, country managers, business owners, and researchers around the world who seek to understand the beauty landscape in Singapore better.
We recruited participants primarily via Facebook and Instagram ads and asked them to take a 20 to 30-minute online survey in March 2022.
A total of 1,077 participants who are based in Singapore took part in this research. The female sample size of 1,013 provides a 95% confidence interval for Singapore’s female population of 2,033,728, with a 3% margin of error.
This means that should the survey be repeated 100 times, it will yield the same results 95 times with a +/-3% to the responses. It also indicates that the survey results are highly significant, and can be taken as a good indication of the overall market sentiments.
This is possibly one of the largest studies that deep-dives into the consumer behaviour in the beauty market in Singapore and provides an insight to what really affects beauty consumers’ purchasing decisions.
The good news is that you can access our report for free. Read till the end of the article to find out how you can receive a copy.
