Abstract

This study aims to examine how personalised content affects consumers¡¯ purchase intentions in the mobile beauty shopping applications within the UK. Based on previous studies personalised content on mobile beauty applications influences consumer behaviour in terms of mobile application convenience, m-loyalty and emotions. In-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 females between the ages of 18-35 who live in the UK. According to the results, personalised content has a positive influence on both mobile convenience and m-loyalty while for emotions the influence is both positive and negative. Moreover, findings also suggested that the personalisation-privacy paradox can prevent consumers from making a purchase. The study provides suggestions towards m-retailers and managers in relation to m-commerce and beauty mobile applications. Findings also offer an insight with regards to how m-retailers can successfully incorporate personalised content to increase consumers¡¯ retention and eventually their profitability.
