☆ As part of the ‘cocktail culture,' consumers are still splurging on dinner and drinks

"Sticker shock" has taken a toll, the report found, with consumers more likely to walk away from a purchase because the price is too high. Further, when it comes to discretionary spending, adults are more likely to treat themselves to dinner out or premium spirits rather than cosmetics. Consumers in the U.S. are four times more likely to have said their latest splurge purchase was food and beverages over personal care, Deloitte found. "Despite the tough economy, consumers continued to enjoy premium spirits and fine cocktails," Chris Swonger, president and CEO of the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, said in a statement. "Cocktail culture continues to thrive in the United States," Swonger said.
☆ Why economists study hemline lengths and men's underwear sales for clues we could be headed for a recession

The creation of the lipstick index is widely attributed to Leonard Lauder, one of the billionaire heirs to the Estée Lauder cosmetics fortune. Back in 2001, when the US economy was in the throes of a recession, Lauder noticed that lipstick sales were actually rising, not falling. Lauder's theory was that lipstick sales and the health of the economy were in inverse proportion to one another — essentially, as the economy got worse, lipstick sales got better. The lipstick index has borne out several times throughout history. Still, lipstick probably isn't a reliable recession indicator — there are plenty of times when cosmetics sales have boomed during times of relative economic prosperity and dipped during downturns.
☆ The 'lipstick index' strikes again: Beauty shoppers are still spending big, even as US consumers dial back on everything else

Beauty sales are bucking a trend of declining consumer spending in other categories. The strength in beauty is reflecting a long-held retail indicator called the "lipstick index." Consumers are spending more on beauty in general, with over a third of survey respondents saying they spent over $500 on beauty products in the past year, up from a quarter the year prior, according to Inmar Intelligence. Other beauty retail partnerships, like Sephora and Kohl's, are getting a boost from the lipstick indexUlta and Target aren't the only retailers seeing beauty products fly off the shelves. In fact, the allure of Sephora is so strong that it's helped buoy same-store sales for Kohl's and draw younger consumers.

☆ The Lipstick Index Is Back

Lipstick is one of the few beauty products where sales are up versus before the pandemic. Masks off, lipstick index on. In a gloomy economy, consumers might cut back on other discretionary purchases but will keep shelling out for small luxuries such as lipstick—or so goes the theory. “When lipstick sales go up, people don’t want to buy dresses,” Leonard Lauder , then-chairman of Estée Lauder who is widely credited for coming up with the so-called “lipstick index,” told The Wall Street Journal in 2001.

Now, many of the same companies are seeing sales of chocolate, cookies, and other sweet snacks rise. "Our products remain an affordable treat for families and consumers," Michele Buck, the CEO of Hershey, told analysts on a call. While consumers cut back spending in many areas, such as travel, sales of lipstick actually grew.
