The consumer on the other side of the screen was left alone, looking at the home beauty device she had purchased with a huge sum of money sitting in the idle drawer, and confusedly asking questions in the search bar. "Are home beauty devices a tax on IQ?"

With the popularity of the beauty economy, the market for home beauty devices has become active again. According to the "Baidu However, a survey by Sino-Singapore Jingwei found that many manufacturers in the beauty instrument market currently conduct "OEM sales", with product prices as low as more than ten yuan, and some manufacturers shout "OEM qualifications are not required, just pay."

OEM products are as low as more than ten yuan, and the retail price is 10 times the purchase price.

In the eyes of some young people, home beauty devices are a relatively expensive investment, but a cost-effective investment for long-term ownership. 25-year-old Mengmeng (pseudonym) bought a domestic beauty device priced at about 1,000 yuan at the beginning of this year. “I will try a domestically produced one first, and if I can adapt to the experience, I will place an order for a big-name beauty device after my consumption level improves.”

This year 30-year-old Yunyun (pseudonym) told Sino-Singapore Jingwei that she planned to place an order for a Japanese Essence Introduction Device worth 18,000 yuan, which would be interest-free for 6 periods. However, she still had to repay 3,000 yuan a month. She was about to catch up with her mortgage payment, but later she still had to pay back her mortgage.

The market price ranges from a thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan, and is concentrated between 5,000 yuan and 7,000 yuan. Overseas brands such as , Yameng, , Zeus, and Panasonic occupy 80% of the Chinese beauty device market. However, due to the short development time of domestic brands, they mainly imitate foreign brands in terms of product functions and designs, making it difficult to demonstrate their brand influence. Most of them focus on high cost performance.

What is worthy of attention is that there is also a certain chaos in the home beauty device market. Some manufacturers can produce low-priced beauty devices through OEM and OEM without any qualifications.

Sino-Singapore Jingwei’s investigation found that many merchants claimed to provide wholesale of beauty instruments and “OEM processing” services, with prices ranging from more than ten yuan to several hundred yuan.

Zhongxin Jingwei contacted the staff of Shenzhen Zhuoli Technology Co., Ltd., a beauty instrument manufacturer, as a beauty salon staff. When asked whether OEM customers need to show specific qualifications, the other party said that they only need company qualifications and trademark certificates. They are responsible for the warranty of after-sales quality issues. "If you have your own brand, you can put your brand on it. If you don't have it, you can use neutral products (products without logos) or use our brand."

Are household beauty instruments subject to IQ tax?

Why can OEM products be so expensive? Industry insiders revealed that the key lies in marketing.

In 2021, #Li Jiaqi company was fined 300,000 yuan for false propaganda. According to the relevant penalty decision, the anchor used "full face activation collagen , The effect of lifting and tightening, lifting and lightening wrinkles is very obvious... After using it for a month, it is equivalent to taking a shot of Thermage . The effect is really scary and miraculous." The product has been evaluated to a certain extent.

Earlier in 2020, the Shenzhen Consumer Committee evaluated 10 beauty device products with good sales on the market, including NuFACE, Namisi, and Compass. , Jindao and Refa, SKG, Panasonic, MKE, Notime and Yameng.

The results showed that 6 of the ten products had the risk of sensitization, and 2 had the risk of low-temperature burns and burns to the dermal layer of the skin. In addition, from the perspective of makeup removal effect alone, testers believe that the makeup removal effect of beauty devices is not as good as that of human hands.

Is there an IQ tax on a home beauty device that costs thousands? Ding Hui, chief physician of the Department of Dermatology and Cosmetology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, once publicly stated on Zhihu that the introduction of various beauty instruments is useful, but its effect is limited. It is a kind of passive absorption by the skin. First, It is difficult to maintain, and secondly, it is easy to form dependence. Most of the essence introduced acts on the surface of the skin. If the surface of the skin is placed on the table, it will be similar to our keyboard. Fat-soluble small molecules enter the intercellular lipids. To exert its effect, without the action of external force, the essence mainly acts on the 1-5 layers of cells above. Going down, the basement membrane band at the junction of the dermis and epidermis blocks it, making it difficult to penetrate further.

"Instead of destroying and repairing later, it is better to protect it from the beginning, use sunscreen, and avoid eating foods that are high in sugar, oil, and fried at high temperatures." Ding Hui said.

Capital is accelerating its entry into the industry

Despite the constant controversy, the beauty device track has still attracted capital to enter the industry.

Based on industrial and commercial registration, China has added 14 new relevant companies since 2022, 50 companies have been established in the past year, and the monthly registration growth rate in the past year has remained above 9%.

On this basis, capital has also entered the game one after another. Tianyancha shows that since this year, domestic beauty device brands such as PINYAN, Mesmooth, Hua Fanxi, and Zhongmeike Biotech have received financing from IDG Capital, Tencent Investment, Celtic Ventures, Nut Capital, Kexi Capital, and Capital Well-known institutions such as China Construction Investment Corporation are entering the market, with investment and financing amounts reaching hundreds of millions of yuan.

Huawei has also entered the beauty device market. Last year, it launched two beauty devices, including the popular radio frequency beauty device.

At the same time, there are also listed companies that use home beauty devices to extend their business from the B end to the C end.

This product is a home beauty device based on light wave energy. It helps consumers achieve skin rejuvenation at home through multiple dimensions such as instant skin brightening and promoting collagen regeneration.

Ping An Securities released a research report in April 2022, which showed that Winona, a brand of cosmetics manufacturer Bettany, also plans to develop home beauty devices and other tracks in the future.

In 2021, some investors asked about the company's competitive advantages in beauty devices and other products on the investor interactive platform. Xiaoxiong Electric responded that personal care products are still in the early stages of development and are looking for room for differentiation.
