Makeup industry is a very well known industry in the world. From a small town of an under-developed country to a modern city of a well-developed country, people have heard of names like Revlon, Lancome, Avon, and L’Oréal. These most popular makeup brands outreach marketing is insane; they have products for all age and class of people.
People get to know makeup brands and show brand loyalty from an early age. All thanks to the optimal digital and non-digital marketing and optimal product distribution technology that these brands pour billions dollars into, they have been able to reach almost everyone.
If you ask me, I personally love brands that are cruelty free and think more about the environment and health rather than money.
Here are the most popular makeup brands in the world.
