Existing brand loyty
Many reviewers explicitly state they have used 3CE lip products for years or ”at least a decade" and buy each new release, showing high brand loyalty and repeat purchase beh.
Influencer and social media recommendation
Several reviewers mention discovering or choosing a shade after seeing it recommended by a YouTuber or on Instagram, indicating social content drives purchase decisions.
Bundled mini gift lipstick
A recurring reason for purchase satisfaction (and upsell to full size) is the free mini 'Cashmere Hug' lipstick included with orders, which reviewers call a strong value add.
Sale pricing and promotions
Multiple Japanese and other reviewers note buying during a sale period at a discounted price, suggesting price promotions boost conversion.
Positive reviews and reputation
Some buyers say they purchased specifically because online reviews were good, using aggregate ratings as a trust signal before trying a new shade.
