How should you market your beauty product so that it addresses the concerns that Singaporean women have?
Results indicate that across the board, blackheads and whiteheads (70%) still remain a top concern amongst women below 25 as well as women from 25-34. This results is similar to 2017. On the other hand, women above 34 are more concerned about dull, uneven skin tones, with dark eye circles following (58%) close behind.
There has also been an increase in women expressing concern for visible and enlarged pores (53%) this year, which puts it at a tie with acne and acne scars. This is an interesting trend that may be worthwhile to look into.

Which beauty culture yields the most influence over Singaporean women, thus allowing for more effective cosmetic marketing?
The figures largely remained the same as last year’s, though there have been slight changes. Korea still reigns over every other country, coming in at more than 30% overall for all respondents. However, there looks to be a slight decrease in percentage compared to last year. Could this be an indication that the craze over K-beauty is dwindling? Will it continue to slide over time?
America comes in second for overall respondents, and has overtaken Japan as the second most influential culture for women aged between 25 and 34.
