CHAPTER 1: REASON FOR CHOOSE THE TOPIC Currently, with the increasing quality of life, the general trend of cosmetic stores and beauty salons is to return to nature Cosmetic companies are actively building for themselves safe and quality brands, especially taking advantage of beauty ingredients available in nature such as: essential oils, fruits, coffee, tea green, To produce a variety of quality beauty

cosmetics

In recent days, in Ho Chi Minh City and neighboring provinces and cities, the UV index has continuously reached the red alert threshold According to the World Health Organization

(WHO), the current ultraviolet (UV) index of 3 has begun to cause harm and too long

exposure to UV rays will cause damage and most seriously lead to skin cancer That siren is gradually waking up women to cherish and take care of their skin more carefully during this period and even later because the skin determines confidence in work and life Recognizing the current situation, our team believes that the decision to choose the topic of developing and launching the LOV skin anti-aging product line is completely reasonable because of the potential market that the product brings That's why we chose this as the topic of our essay

CHAPTER 2: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY L'Oréal Cosmetics Group was founded in 1909, its headquarters are located at the Eugene Schueller Centre in Clichy, Hauts-de-Seine, near Paris After more than 100 years of

pharmaceutical brand With the development of online commerce platforms as well as the growing awareness of consumers about facial care, the above numbers promise to increase in

the future

We will start a new L’Oréal project using this report "LOV” will be the name of the new product It is an integrated anti-aging lotion from green tea and caffeine and nutrients with the effect of nourishing the skin safely and effectively, freezing aging, forever youthful At the same time, with that use, the birth of the product is also meaningful associated with the purpose of raising charity funds for the community of people with skin cancer with the hope

of bringing healthy young skin in the beauty community in general and Vietnam in particular

Campaign activities:

* Cooperate with KOLs, celebrities to receive products and use and post photos and videos of the results before and after using the product, thereby highlighting the skin rejuvenation and skin care benefits of the product

be donated 40,000 VND to the skin cancer charity

CHAPTER 3: SITUATION ANALYSIS

3.1 Market Summary

3.1.1, Analysis of skincare industry in Vietnam

Industry revenue and growth

Vietnam’s skin care product market size reached 854.3 million USD in 2019 and is expected

to reach 1,922.4 million USD in 2027 Skincare products market can increase revenue by 1,154.25 million USD from 2020 to 2027 (Kale & Deshmukh, 2020) Increasing disposable income and a growing young population are the main factors driving the product market In which, the most potential customer segment in the future is Generation Z, accounting for 39.08% of the total population Overall, these factors have increased the demand for skin care products by domestic consumers

3.1.2 Industry trends

The cosmetics and skincare industry has been growing rapidly along with the rapid

improvement of living standards in Vietnam Consumer tastes and preferences with

increasing disposable income raise the level of sophistication towards premium skin care products Luxury brands become more attractive while mass leather products decline

3.2 Macro — environment

Demographics

Vietnam has more than 93 million people in the group of young people (average age is 32.5 years old), the young population accounts for 65% People’s lives are stable and the demand for beauty increases, especially from men Consumers have more product choices Once a brand has captured the minds of users, their destination is trust And L’Oréal is one of the brands that does this very well

Year Average income

conditions for enterprises to produce and trade in cosmetics products

Difficulties: However, the tax policy is still complicated, creating difficulties for imported products, thereby directly affecting L’Oréal’s profits

Culture

Nowadays, people don’t want to go to the skin care salon but want the products so that they can organize their own skin care at home and our company is providing such products to the consumers

In general, Vietnamese people have the mentality of buying foreign goods not only because

of the quality and design, but also because of the brand reputation of foreign enterprises, and

at the same time, Vietnamese goods have not yet created trust among consumers for many reasons In the minds of the 9x and 10x generations, Vietnamese cosmetics are images of poorly advertised mixed creams, cosmetics of unknown origin widely sold on the market

LI This will be a great advantage for L'Oréal Group in general and LOV products in particular, because the product is manufactured with modern technology and natural ingredients are completely imported from abroad and circulated in Vietnam Vietnam should ensure safety and meet the needs and psychology of customers

Nature

Advantages: Vietnamese consumers are more interested in products with natural ingredients L'Oréal has created a friendly environment and activities that positively impact the

environment

Difficulties: Vietnam's climate is hot and humid, with monsoon frequent natural disasters

This greatly affects the preservation and transportation of L'Oréal’s products On the other

hand, air pollution in Vietnam is quite serious and working outdoors or in front of a computer for a long time, ultraviolet rays and computer radiation are very harmful to the skin

Therefore, skin care to protect the skin is extremely important

Technology

The advanced and modern cosmetic production line element will be an important basis to

help cosmetic manufacturing and processing units get the best quality products, bringing high efficiency to consumers

L’Oréal offers virtual try-on's of the company's products before consumers actually pay We also offer tailored solutions for individuals interested in in-depth diagnosis of skin problems

is increasing O03 — Environmental pollution, ultraviolet rays, computer radiation push people to make more efforts in taking care of their skin
