The Jessica’s Secret Index April 2019: Skincare
As reported, The Moodie Davitt Report has entered into a collaboration with popular Chinese price comparison app Jessica’s Secret. The partnership offers a monthly snapshot of the duty free products most price-searched by Chinese travelling consumers on the app.
The Jessica’s Secret Index, in association with The Moodie Davitt Report, provides an indicator of what’s hot with the app’s predominantly younger Chinese traveller user base. The results do not represent sales rankings but offer a useful insight into Chinese interest on a monthly basis.
The Index will be developed over time to include further granularity of findings by sector and sub-sector. Initially the service will cover wines and spirits, skincare, makeup, fragrances and handbags.
Note: As a reference point we also feature below the week’s best-selling (online) skincare lines from Lotte Duty Free and The Shilla Duty Free, the Korean travel retailers whose business is dominated by Chinese shoppers.
