"Women spend an extraordinary amount of money on cosmetics--$45 billion a year in the U.S. alone. Now in its fourth edition, Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me strikes fear in cosmetics-counter consultants everywhere. First off, Begoun has deconstructed ingredient lists. Ever wonder what methylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben are doing in your mascara? And what is diazolidinyl urea? All four are potential irritants, and the latter is a preservative that can release formaldehyde, a class A carcinogen. Buyer beware. Begoun also lists which companies are cruelty-free and which continue to conduct animal testing. The majority of the book--and that's nearly 800 pages--is devoted to reviews of thousands of cosmetics, from cleansers, foundations, alpha-hydroxy acids, and moisturizers to lip liners, eye shadows, and concealers, all of which Begoun has personally tested. (There are no hair care products listed, as that warrants another book Don't Go Shopping for Hair Care Products Without Me.)She's perfectly frank and tells it like it is. (On Revlon's ColorStay "goes far beyond the claim of 'It won't come off on him.' It won't come off when you want it to.") You'll learn how to tell when you're being boondoggled by a salesperson, what's overpriced and overhyped, as well as what's overlooked. More than 200 brands are included, along with a helpful summary at the end that lists the best products for each cosmetic category. It should be noted that not only is Begoun a fine consumer advocate, she's also a self-esteem she mentions time and again that even the best cosmetics won't necessarily improve your life, and that's a point well taken."

Environmental issues that happened all over the world have earned public attention. There’s a change in consumer’s lifestyle that aims to reduce the negative effects on the environment created by their consumption. As the industry grows wider, the cosmetic industry continues to contribute to environmental damages. There are various movements to preserve the environment, one of them is by buying green cosmetics. This study aims to determine the effect of altruistic value, biospheric value, and hedonic value, as well as to determine the mediating effect of pro-environmental beliefs and personal norms on the green purchase behavior towards green cosmetics products in Indonesia. Purposive sampling with online survey technique was done on buyers and users of green cosmetics products with a minimum age of 17 years old. 230 respondents were collected and analyzed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Method (PLS-SEM). The result revealed that altruistic, biospheric, and hedonic value have a significant effect on pro-environmental beliefs, which encourage feelings of interest in fulfilling responsibilities to deal with environmental problems (personal norms). The mediating role of pro-environmental belief on the relationship between these three values and personal norms, as well as the mediating role of personal norm on the relationship between pro-environmental belief and green purchase behavior proved to have a significant effect. This research hopefully can be useful to help managers in formulating strategies to market green cosmetic products."

As a country Muslim-majority country, awareness to use halal products in Indonesia is increasing. This affects the development of the halal industry, one of which is the halal cosmetics industry. Along with the shift in consumer behavior from traditional to online shopping, Wardah as a pioneer of halal cosmetics made efforts to develop Wardahbeauty.com site. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the factors that influence online purchase intentions for halal cosmetics, using a case study of the Wardah brand. This study adopts the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory to understand consumer behavior in buying halal cosmetics online. The research sample was selected using judgmental sampling involving 274 respondents. This study uses a quantitative approach and the Structural Equation Model (SEM) method to see the relationship between the variables studied using the IBM AMOS 26 application. The results show that S-O-R theory can help explaining online shopping activities, where the stimulus studied is religiosity, hedonic shopping value, utilitarian shopping value, and environmental stimuli. These stimuli succeeded in influencing the organism, consisting of cognitive attitude, affective attitude, and emotional purchase which ultimately resulted in a response in the form of intention to purchase halal cosmetics online. Even so, no significant effect was found on hedonic shopping value on cognitive attitude, utilitarian shopping value on cognitive attitude and affective attitude, environmental stimuli on emotional purchase, and emotional purchase on online purchase intention."
