HBL BEAUTY to Launch at @cosme Stores
Introduction of HBL BEAUTY
JULIA IVY Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based company led by President Hitomi Fukui, introduces HBL BEAUTY, an exclusive eyebrow cosmetic brand. From November 27, 2025, to January 27, 2026, customers will enjoy a unique opportunity to visit select @cosme beauty stores across Japan to explore the innovative products developed under the concept of "Cosmetics to Enhance Your Natural Eyebrows".
A Unique Retail Experience
During this limited-time period, beauty enthusiasts can enjoy a hands-on experience with HBL BEAUTY's best-selling items, including the award-winning HBL 3D Cushion Brow, designed to help users achieve stunning eyebrow looks just in time for the festive seasons. This pop-up store allows customers to view, test, and purchase products directly, addressing their desire to try before buying, which becomes particularly critical during holiday party seasons.
Addressing Eyebrow Dilemmas
Surprisingly, nearly half of consumers—49%—experience difficulty when selecting eyebrow cosmetics. The primary reasons cited include uncertainty about which products match their unique hair and skin types (46.5%) and being overwhelmed by the range of choices available (43.7%). These statistics highlight a clear need for more environments where consumers can experience and try eyebrow products in real-time.
User Preferences and Market Insights
According to findings, the most pivotal factor influencing consumer choice in eyebrow cosmetics is usability, with 48.6% of respondents prioritizing ease of application over price or color. Other surveys reveal that about 90% of users feel intimidated by eyebrow makeup, emphasizing a vacancy for products that are approachable and user-friendly for all consumers.
A Solution to Market Issues
Historically, HBL BEAUTY products have been primarily available online or through eyebrow salons, leading customers to express desires for more physical locations to experience the products. By establishing a presence in the popular @cosme stores, HBL BEAUTY aims to expand access to its salon-quality eyebrow cosmetics and contribute to the overall enhancement of the eyebrow cosmetic experience within the category.
