Abstract

Domestic cosmetics companies are striving to protect the environment and solve environmental problems through ESG management. This study analyzed the relationship and influence between the perceived consumption value and purchasing behavior of upcycling cosmetics according to environmental values for MZ generation women in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. In addition, based on the research results, it was intended to provide basic data for product development and marketing strategies related to upcycling cosmetics. First, all variables were found to be positive (+) correlation. Second, it was found that the higher the environmental value, the higher the perceived consumption value of upcycling cosmetics. Third, it was found that the higher the environmental values, the higher the purchasing behavior. Therefore, it is hoped that it will induce a positive consumption value for upcycling cosmetics, and that the cosmetics industry will be helpful as basic data for the development of related products and the establishment of differentiated marketing strategies.

국내 화장품 기업들은 ESG 경영을 통해 환경보호와 환경 관련 문제 해결을 위해 노력하고 있다. 본 연구는 서울·경기지역의 MZ세대 여성을 대상으로 환경가치관에 따른 업사이클링 화장품의 지각된 소비가치, 구매행동 간의 관계 및 영향력을 분석하였다. 아울러 연구 결과를 토대로 업사이클링 화장품에 관련된 제품개발 및 마케팅 전략 수립을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 첫째, 각 변수 간의 모두 정(+)의 상관관계로 나타났다. 둘째, 환경가치관이 높아질수록 업사이클링 화장품의 지각된 소비가치가 높아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 셋째, 환경가치관이 높아질수록 구매행동이 높아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 업사이클링 화장품에 대한 긍정적 소비가치를 유도하고, 화장품 산업은 관련된 제품개발 및 차별화된 마케팅 전략 수립을 위한 기초자료로 도움이 될 수 있기를 기대한다.
