In contrast, 82\u00b0E, launched by Deepika in November 2022, has managed around \u20b925 crore, according to industry estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both actors have massive social media pull, strong brand equity, and sizable fan followings. They are matched in popularity, but the same cannot be said about their respective brands. One clearly has an edge over the other. In this case, it is Kay Beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What went wrong with 82\u00b0E?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A core difference between the two brands is pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kay Beauty\u2019s average product is priced affordably at around \u20b9299, making it accessible to a large portion of Indian beauty consumers. It hits the sweet spot of mass affordability and aspirational branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katrina seems to have built the line keeping in mind India\u2019s price-sensitive but beauty-conscious audience, especially women who look for functional, everyday products without shelling out a fortune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, 82\u00b0E positions itself as a luxury skincare brand, with products starting at \u20b92,500 and going up to nearly \u20b94,000. While targeting the premium market is a valid strategy, it demands either a very clear value proposition or a unique, standout offering that sets it apart from both domestic and global competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to multiple marketing and retail experts, 82\u00b0E currently lacks such a defining \u201chero\u201d product. In contrast, top-tier global brands like Est\u00e9e Lauder (Advanced Night Repair) and L\u2019Occitane (Immortelle Divine Cream) have built their entire portfolio identity around one or two iconic products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Devangshu Dutta, CEO of retail consultancy Third Eyesight, cautions against overestimating the power of celebrity equity alone. \u201cCelebrity involvement, even with an equity stake, doesn\u2019t automatically ensure brand success,\u201d he says. \u201cWhat matters is how well the product and brand resonate with the end consumer. Many factors\u2014category selection, pricing, accessibility, and retail strategy\u2014determine scalability.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>He adds, \u201cA high-priced D2C brand with limited-use products will always scale slower than a more affordably priced, high-rotation brand with widespread retail availability.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Missing the emotional connect<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another crucial area where 82\u00b0E falters is brand recall without Deepika. Experts argue that if Deepika\u2019s face were to be removed from the branding, very little would remain to emotionally anchor consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While celebrity-founded brands enjoy the initial boost of recognition, long-term consumer connection demands storytelling, product efficacy, and relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a product priced between \u20b92700\u2013\u20b93900, the experience and results need to justify the cost. But user feedback suggests the perceived benefits don\u2019t dramatically exceed what one might get from a \u20b9999 serum in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katrina\u2019s Kay Beauty, in contrast, positioned itself as a homegrown solution for Indian skin types, with products that worked well for deeper skin tones and humidity-prone weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The brand tapped into inclusivity and practicality\u2014two emotional hooks that resonate deeply with Indian consumers. Additionally, it responded to functional needs by launching waterproof and sweat-resistant products, which especially make sense during monsoons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Instagram, Katrina actively promotes her products, collaborates with influencers, and shares content that resonates with her target audience. In contrast, Deepika\u2019s brand presence on social media lacks the same level of relatability and consistent engagement, suggesting a need for a more tailored and active digital strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DI_wjSRoZTM\/? utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Link: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DI_wjSRoZTM\/? utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DIWHG1DSR5f\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DIWHG1DSR5f\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Retail footprint and distribution strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skincare, particularly in the premium category, remains an experiential purchase. Consumers often want to try and test products before committing, especially at a higher price point. 82\u00b0E launched as a D2C-only brand, relying heavily on its website and social media advertising for discovery and sales with no store opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The strategy meant substantial upfront investment in paid media and influencer partnerships to generate traction, but lacked the physical visibility or tactile experience needed to convert high-end skincare buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In contrast, Kay Beauty quickly became visible across Nykaa\u2019s extensive online and offline retail network, giving shoppers a chance to explore products across price tiers in-store and online. The Nykaa tie-up served not only as a strong distribution engine but also as a brand endorsement in itself, given the platform\u2019s dominant position in Indian beauty retail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Kushal Sanghvi, a media and marketing strategist, puts it, \u201cKay Beauty got its pricing, packaging, promotion, and place\u2014basically the key P\u2019s of marketing\u2014spot on. Deepika\u2019s brand, though elegant, is caught in a niche premium wellness space with limited scale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kay Beauty was developed with a clear understanding of what works in India: colour cosmetics tailored for Indian skin tones and seasonal weather. The brand focused on frequently-used products like lipsticks, kajal, and foundation sticks that had both a functional and emotional appeal, allowing it to drive repeat purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In contrast, 82\u00b0E focused on skincare rooted in self-care and holistic wellness, a space that is already crowded with local and international competitors, and where product effectiveness needs to be proven over time. Moreover, Indian consumers still tend to see skincare as utilitarian, rather than indulgent, which makes higher pricing even more of a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Short-Term Results vs. Long-Term Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to contextualise these figures within brand age. Luxury brands, globally, have often taken decades to establish loyalty. From Est\u00e9e Lauder to Chanel, brand equity is built slowly through repeated use, reliable results, and consistent positioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But time alone won\u2019t change the equation unless the core approach is recalibrated. If Deepika\u2019s brand intends to build a long-lasting business, it will need to think beyond elite appeal and D2C strategy. Offline presence, a wider retail network, and possibly a reimagining of its product portfolio to include lower price points or trial-sized options could open the door to a broader consumer base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India\u2019s beauty and wellness market is growing at over 15% year-on-year, and opportunities abound at both the premium and affordable ends of the spectrum. But clarity of positioning and accessibility remain critical to long-term\u00a0success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>(Published in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exchange4media.com\/marketing-news\/why-kay-beauty-outshone-820e-its-beyond-skin-deep-say-experts-143214.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Exchange4Media<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shalinee Mishra, Exchange4Media May 7, 2025 Bollywood\u2019s biggest stars, Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone, have reputed beauty businesses to their names \u2014 Kay Beauty and 82\u00b0East, respectively.
