Overview

How can data visualization uncover patterns in global cosmetics sales, brand performance, and consumer preferences — helping businesses identify market opportunities across regions and price segments?

Built an interactive Power BI dashboard that integrates global cosmetic review and sales data to provide a holistic view of the industry.
The dashboard combines market KPIs, product-level insights, and regional breakdowns to help executives understand brand trends, pricing behavior, and category performance.

Key components:

  • Data cleaning and transformation using Power Query

  • Dynamic visuals for brand share, rating trends, and price analysis

  • Region-based filters for Europe, Asia, North America, and Oceania

  • Automated metrics for popularity score, cruelty-free distribution, and luxury category share

Research

  • Sisley emerged as the most popular luxury cosmetics brand, leading in both price and sentiment metrics.

  • Europe leads the global shift toward cruelty-free products, with over 60% of total reviews linked to ethical brands.

  • Found that mid-range products received the highest customer satisfaction (average rating 3.0–3.5).

  • Face oils and serums were the fastest-growing product categories by review volume.

  • Helped segment global markets into luxury, mid-range, and affordable tiers, offering a data-driven view of brand positioning.
