To brave & benevolent beauty

Love Beauty Planet's products are not really popular and are quite unknown to manypeople The reason comes from customers not trusting, afraid to try new products and stillhaving doubts about product quality In addition, on the issue of relatively high price, it alsoaffects their purchasing decision.

However, with confidence in the quality of the product, we affirm, the price of the productis extremely worth the money and worth it The purpose of this project we want toemphasize not only on product quality but also on safety because the product is extractedfrom nature with a "dream" ingredient list and not tested on animals.

Moreover, according to a survey of our project team, the majority of customers (aged 35) prefer products with lots of soap bubbles (illustrated) because they think more foammakes washing their hair easier should be easier and cleaner Meanwhile, Love BeautyPlanet's shampoo products are quite foamy because the brand uses very few chemicalsand foaming agents, but the cleaning effect is not inferior to other products.

18-This project we want to completely solve that problem Although the product produces littlefoam, it cleans very well and is extremely safe for your scalp (because it is completelyextracted from nature) and prevents scalp diseases even if you wash your hair many times.Through that, we want to convey the message "Don't hold back, Detox the life" Don'thesitate to use new products, keep trying and experimenting with our products And beconfident in yourself, purify your life and turn a new page That is exactly what we tell you.
