Research

Research

This study provides insight into Canadians’ perception of green beauty and their motivations for purchasing such products, so as to highlight the strength and nature of the green beauty trend. To accomplish this, an online survey was sent out to a randomly selected general sample of adults aged 18+. Initial findings exhibited that consumers are becoming more amenable to and interested in purchasing green beauty products. Many respondents attributed this change in behaviour to newfound awareness and concern about matters such as climate change, animal rights, and the danger of toxic exposure. Findings from this research could be expanded upon, particularly regarding discrepancies in beauty-labelling practices.
