Brand loyalty and 3CE reputation
Many repeat customers purchased specifically because they trust the 3CE brand for quality and unique color formulations. Influencer endorsements (e.g., Fromis9 on YouTube) also drove purchases.
Sale and promotional pricing
A significant portion of buyers explicitly mentioned purchasing during sales or at discounted prices, suggesting price sensitivity and opportunity-driven buying behavior in the market.
Unique packaging and magnetic case innovation
The magnetic lid design was a key purchase driver for consumers seeking novelty and Instagram-worthy aesthetics. The stackable design appealed to those wanting compact, portable cosmetics.
Specific color matching for undertones
Cool-tone and blue-toned shade options attracted cool-undertone (blue) consumers who reported difficulty finding suitable blushes. Some buyers purchased multiple palettes to match their seasonal color theory needs.
Multi-purpose functionality
The ability to use the palette as blush, eyeshadow, highlighter, and contour in one product appealed to consumers seeking efficiency and value.
