With the ever-changing cosmetic industry and ever-evolving Generation Z, we ask ourselves: What does Generation Z expect from today's beauty brands?

Highlighter, their great ally. This is the fetish cosmetic of this generation. Did you know that 17% of new skincare products mention the “glow” or “bright” effect in their description?
Even better if it’s natural. Real awareness has grown in the cosmetic industry about the importance of natural elements and the rejection of chemical elements.
