It’s grown +18.6% in searches since last year. Though L’Oreal is a top market leader, branded searches overall remain low making this trend low competition.

Searches for how to use and what is reveal that consumers are unsure how exactly to use hair mascara. This is a lot of opportunity for brands to work with UGC to make educational content around hair mascara products.
