It's weird because other things are in demand that you think wouldn't be.

Some luxury beauty brands can't keep up orders and have disclaimers up on their sites (that they are processing as fast and safe as they can) and some items are going out of stock fast. Not to mention how much internal searches are top on my wiki for hair dye 6/10 right now. And it's not like people are leaving the house to have a night on the town (I am leaving my place for essentials 2-4 times a month (and my country was in lock-down earlier than the US), so not like I am going through makeup fast).

I remember years ago someone telling be even after a market crash (probably the August '08 one) some women were still buying up lipstick (sales were noticeably up) because it was a sort of self-esteem boost during a down time you can see the results for immediately (aka by applying it).

The short and the long of it- you can't always predict people.
