Southeast Asia Skincare - Best-Selling Brands In terms of brands, the eCommerce market of skincare products in Southeast Asia shows a high brand richness, and there are no brands with absolute market dominance. The **market share of the top ten brands has not exceeded 6%, which shows that there are still large market opportunities for new brands.** At the same time, we can also see obvious differences in consumer brand preferences on different platforms—consumers on Shopee prefer Japanese and Korean brands, as well as local brands from Southeast Asia. Japan's Senka leads the comprehensive sales of skincare products, while South Korea's COSRX champions among sales of Facial Serums & Essences. Indonesia's local brands performed well, with six brands including Skintific, being in the top 10 for best-selling brands.[ See the free report for specific hot-selling brands in every countries.](https://www.tmogroup.asia/downloads/skincare-southeast-asia-outlook/) European and American brands are more popular with consumers on Lazada.
