Makeup.uk: Finding confidence in beauty
The beauty industry is a rapidly expanding one. In 2018 the worldwide cosmetics market was said to be worth $507.8 billion. By 2025 cosmetics are projected to grow to $758.4 billion. As with all industries on the internet, platforms grow in the form of websites and Makeup.uk is to beauty what Amazon is to retail.
Makeup.uk know that beauty is an individual process. Every person has their own vision of what makes them beautiful. Cosmetics highlight the beauty within. It is about discovering the confidence to uncover what works for us that is the difficult part.
Finding the look that works is the difference between a ‘regular’ person and the people we look up to as beauty icons. Beauty is discovering the right products and processes to create outside beauty. With sheer size of the online world, it can be intimidating to start a journey into cosmetics. MAKEUP understands this. That is why they offer a lookfantastic student discount to help young people find their beauty
