The facilities and infrastructure of advertising and product promotion are made easier by digital technology, which can easily be accessed through social media or various market In the minds of consumers, a lot of information passing by bombarding with attractive offers. The company must realize that there is a need to maximize the company's assets so that the company's survival can be maintained. Companies in similar industries are competing to win consumers not only on functional products but are associated with the ability of brands to provide a special image for the wearer. Without a brand, the product or service will not be recognized by consumers and if the product or service has a brand then the brand will have a higher value (Foroudi, 2. in the customer's mind. A product or service that has a brand will make it easier for customers to recognize the brand compared to competing brands. Brands are said to have brand equity positive customer-based if consumers have a pleasant experience of a particular product or service so that it has a pleasant reaction to a product or service. Companies must avoid brand equity negative customer-based, because consumers will react unpleasantly even in the same marketing activity situation. Building brand equity plays an important role in marketing. Women are increasingly aware to do facial treatments along with the needs and demands of the social environment. Having a clean and healthy face will have the effect of increasing self-confidence in women. Make up cannot be separated from women's daily Seeing the enthusiasm of women at this time and the wide-open market, many beauty products are trying their luck playing in the same class. The need to look beautiful but remain in the teachings of religion is a serious concern. The cosmetics industry responds to marketing related to consumption and faith. Cosmetics companies recognize the need to answer the target market's need for halal cosmetics, which are friendly and safe products for Muslims that are becoming consumption trends (Sama & Trivedi, 2. Muslim women in Indonesia want the cosmetics used to be halal-certified products from the Indonesian ulama council through MUI LP-POM (Food. Drug and Cosmetic Research Institut. Halal certification organizations have an important role as a liaison between halal producers and consumers and halal in supply chain partners as quality assurance (Annabi et al. , 2. With a large number of Muslim women faced with the choice of brands or halal products (Feizollah et al. , 2. The halal industry developed, which at first experienced food development in the non-food industry, namely cosmetics. Islamic finance, toiletries and tourism. The cosmetics market is one of the promising halal Brand image, brand trust and brand loyalty play an increasingly important role in marketing (Sasmita & Mohd Suki, 2. Brand loyalty has a strategic role for the company among which is obtaining market share, new customers, support for brand expansion, reduced marketing costs and can strengthen the position of the brand in the face of competition (Ainin et al. , 2. Brand loyalty can prevent the entry of competing Bisman (Bisnis dan Manajeme. : The Journal of Business and Management Bisman: Volume 8. Nomor 2. Juli Tahun 2025. | 285 brands in the minds of customers, become the basis for setting price premiums, the time needed to respond to innovations by competitors and is a bulwark against price competition aimed at damaging prices. The building of customer trust must be maintained, because trust is the key of brand equity which is the main factor of building long-term successful relationships (Sukesi & Akbar Hidayat, 2. LITERATURE REVIEW Awareness is knowledge and understanding of the subject in certain situations. In the context of Halal, this is part of the process of providing information to further increase awareness of what is permitted in Islam for products that can be consumed or used. The consciousness of the Muslims describes the perception and cognitive reactions to the products that can be consumed on the market. Awareness is an internal condition in the form of deep feelings by means of sensory perceptions of the products used or consumed. Halal awareness explains a high understanding regarding the provisions, rules and regulations of religion so that awareness of Muslims to be in accordance with Islamic sharia and absolutely for the products consumed (Handriana et al. , 2. Awareness in HalalAos context is a feeling of special interest or experience in related to information obtained by something related to the halal product used (Ambali & Bakar. The awareness of halal products is affected by the level of faith of Muslims, the higher the level of faith, the more awareness of the halal needs that are consumed. The awareness of halal is knowledge related to understanding information about halal products (Shahid et al. , 2. HalalAos concept in Islam has comprehensive range and a very broad also applies to all aspects of community life including food, behavior, use of cosmetics, use of clothing, financial, distribution and logistics (Wilson, 2. Cosmetics is a necessity sought by Muslim women because using a brand or product requires trust which is built on the belief that cosmetics are halal so they don't have to worry about using cosmetics. The definition of halal in cosmetics is the content of ingredients in accordance with Islamic law, which include not using ingredients that contain animal origin and no alcohol content. Companies that compete in the cosmetics industry must consider halal in relation to religious values in promoting them (Feizollah et , 2. Halal criteria not only in the food industry, but developing in consumables industry such as medicines, personal care, cosmetics, toiletries and others. Halal certificates must guarantee Muslims what they consume or the materials used in accordance with the law and encourage producers to meet halal standards. Within the scope of halal cosmetics and personal care products include halal ingredients, substances used halal, packaged, stored, and shipped in accordance with sharia requirements. Brand image is about a brand that is reflected by consumers based on consumers' Brand image is a collection of brand associations which are formed and embedded in the minds of consumers. Brand image is a collection of impressions in the minds of consumers about everything related to a brand that is assembled from consumers' memories of that brand. Halal cosmetics must pay attention to the Halal logo or label used. The need to use appropriate procedures so that the brand or product gets Halal certification from a credible authority. Institutions that guarantee halal certification in Indonesia are Bisman (Bisnis dan Manajeme. : The Journal of Business and Management 286 | Bisman: Volume 8. Nomor 2. Juli 2025. MUI LP-POM Food. Drug and Cosmetic Assessment Institute. There are three parts in measuring brand image, namely product attributes, product benefits and evaluation (Altaf et , 2. Attributes are divided into two namely attributes that are directly related and not directly related to the product. As for the benefits of functional benefits, symbolic benefits and experience benefits. For the overall evaluation stage is the subjective value the customer adds to the consuming experience. Brand image is important as an antecedent of brand loyalty (Chinomona, 2. In this study, the first research hypothesis proposed is H1: Brand image influences brand loyalty on halal cosmetics. Brand trust is the perception of consumers to believe in the brandAos ability or reliability based on sequences or experience interactions and transactions with the brand so that hope and expectation that the brand can provide positive results. Consumers who get positive results are expected to lead brand loyalty. Brand loyalty will be more easily formed if the product or service has brand trust strong that will determine consumer loyalty to the brand and has the potential to create relationships that have high value (Edris, 2. Trust is one of the qualities that is the desired subject in any relationship. Brand trust has a role in developing brand equity (Annabi et al. , 2. Brand trust is developed in the results of past interactions or experiences with brand, and related to positive things about brand loyalty which in turn maintains a positive relationship with brand equity (Flores-Hernyndez et al. , 2. Customer trust has affect on customer loyalty (Marakanon & Panjakajornsak. Customer trust in relation with brand trust can be measured by reputation, performance, commitment and expectation (Hapsari et al. , 2. Consumer loyalty is influenced by several factors including satisfaction which is a measurement of the difference between expectations and reality perceived by consumers, emotional ties that are due to certain attractions of a product or service between consumers, trust that is the willingness to entrust a company or brand to carry out its functions, convenience, namely the feeling of comfort over the quality felt by consumers when they make transactions and experience with the company, namely the formation of a behavior because of getting good service from the company. Brand trust is important, it is as antecedent of brand loyalty (Kataria & Saini, 2. In this study, the second research hypothesis proposed is H2: Brand trust influences brand loyalty on halal cosmetics Brand image and brand trust as antecedents of brand loyalty (Chinomona, 2. Loyalty is an emotional attachment which is a manifestation of the basic human need to support each other, have, get a sense of security and build bonds. Consumer loyalty is a behavioral drive to make repeat purchases and build customer loyalty to a product or Loyal consumers will make regular purchases or repeat purchases and are not easily influenced by offers from competing brands. Consumer loyalty can also be relied upon that consumer will make purchases between product lines. Another advantage of having loyal customers is that they will recommend products or services to others which means consumers have carried out marketing activities for the company indirectly and can even attract other consumers to the company (Shahid et al. , 2. Consumer loyalty will also make consumers not easily Bisman (Bisnis dan Manajeme. : The Journal of Business and Management Bisman: Volume 8. Nomor 2. Juli Tahun 2025. | 287 swayed or immune to attractive offers from competing products or services (Parihar & Dawra, 2. Brand equity is a balance between brand assets and liabilities associated with a brand, symbol and name that can add or even reduce the value given by a product or service. Value can be visualized in how consumers feel, think and act towards the brand, price, market share and profitability owned by the company (Moorthi & Mohan, 2. The totality of brand perceptions which includes the real quality of a product or service, customer loyalty, financial performance, satisfaction and overall appreciation of the brand (Arbak et al. , 2. Brand equity is a relational market-based asset arising from relationships owned by brand and consumers. Consumers develop brand loyalty by creating positive outputs that affect brand equity which will positively bring out brand preferences (Ray et al. , 2. In this study, the third research hypothesis proposed is H3: Brand loyalty influences brand equity on halal cosmetics. Figure 1. Research Conceptual Framework RESEARCH METHODS This study aims to explain how to build brand equity which is a long-term benefit for companies by strengthening brand image, brand trust, and brand loyalty. The approach used is confirmatory factors analysis by building model structural equation modeling (Xiong et , 2. Generalization consisting of subjects or objects that have the characteristics required in research to further draw conclusions is population (Majid, 2. The population in this study were consumers of halal cosmetic brands. This research was conducted from December 2024 to January 2025. This research used random sampling probability with 224 respondents. The sample was chosen to represent the characteristics of the existing population with the following criteria: women who use halal cosmetic brand as active users for a minimum of two years and purchase halal cosmetic brand at least twice a Primary data and secondary data are used in this study. In obtaining primary data, questionnaires were distributed to respondents with predetermined criteria. For secondary Bisman (Bisnis dan Manajeme. : The Journal of Business and Management 288 | Bisman: Volume 8. Nomor 2. Juli 2025. data obtained from literature studies, journals, and also online media. This data will be processed using Stata software version 14. In this study are two variables, namely exogenous and endogenous variables. Exogenous variables are two, namely brand image (BI) and brand trust (BT). Whereas endogenous variables consist of 2 namely brand loyalty (BL) as endogenous intervening variables and brand equity (BE) as endogenous dependent variables. Brand image variable is the consumer's perception of all matters relating to the brand image that exists in the consumer's mind. Consisting of six indicators namely personality, identity, association, behavior and attitude, competence and benefit (Wijaya, 2. Brand trust variable is the consumer's perception of trust in the brand that the brand can provide results according to the needs and desires of consumers. Consisting of four indicators namely, meet expectation, high reputation, trusted, reliable. Brand loyalty is the behavior of consumers who make repeated purchases of brand cosmetics and have trust in the brand and consistently use the brand (Saha et al. , 2. Consists of five indicators or variables, observed namely loyal, willing to pay more, will not switch to another brand, positive word of mouth and Brand equity is the consumer's perception of the value built, felt and trusted by consumers and actions towards the brand, which consists of five indicators about attitude towards the brand (Altaf et al. , 2. RESULTS Questioner that has been distributed that received answers that can be used as a sample of 224 respondents. This questionnaire uses a measurement scale with a Likert scale of 1 which means strongly disagree to 9 which means strongly agree, it is necessary to do a validity test and reliability test. In testing the validity of the research instrument required r table with the formula df = n-2 where df is the degree of freedom and n is the number of With a total sample of 224 people with a significant level of 5%, the r table was Of the 20 statements all had r arithmetic greater than 0. 131 except the statement for B16 which had r arithmetic of -0. Cronbach's Alpha is a measure of reliability ranging from zero to one (Hair et al. , 2. From the Cronbach Alpha test results obtained a value 833 which means greater than 0. 7 (Vaske et al. , 2. then the items in the questionnaire statement used in this study are valid and reliable.

Juli 2025. Structural Equation Modeling Analysis The next step after determining the latent variables and indicators used is a full analysis Structural Equation Modeling. Models are built with the aim of testing the models and hypotheses developed. Testing in SEM is carried out in two ways, namely the significance test of causality, namely the regression coefficient test and the model suitability test. Indicators that have value loading factor below 0. 5 have a weak contribution to latent Likewise, the indicators above 0. 5 have a strong contribution to the latent Indicators that have correlations below 0. 5 are not used to build models. The required variance extracted test limit value is > 0. Extracted variance (VE) value > 0. indicates that the variance of the indicators extracted by the latent construct is higher than the error variance. Figure 2. Structural Equation Model Test Results The loading factor value used is minimal 0. 5, so that loading factor values below 5 will not be used in this study. The results of the confirmatory analysis show that the five indicators for measuring brand image have values above 0. 5, which illustrates that the five Bisman (Bisnis dan Manajeme. : The Journal of Business and Management Bisman: Volume 8. Nomor 2. Juli Tahun 2025. | 291 indicators are able to build the brand image construct. Figure 2 shows that the brand image consisting of six indicators turns out that only five indicators contribute to building the This illustrates that the pleasant feeling of using halal products is no longer a requirement but a necessity that is attached to the product. Meanwhile, the four brand trust indicators are also able to contribute to building the brand trust construct, as well as the five brand loyalty indicators are able to build the brand loyalty construct. While in brand equity, it turns out that of the six indicators proposed in the study, only two contribute to building the brand equity construct. This gives an illustration that customers build brand equity towards halal product brands with a very strong belief that they do not want to use other brands even though there are similar product brands that provide the same service, quality, content, benefits. Customers also feel confident in using the halal product brand even though other brands offer the same service, quality, content, benefits. This information can be useful to provide input to the Company to maintain customer brand loyalty by maintaining the brand image and brand trust of the brand. Table 2.

DISCUSSION Halal industry has experienced rapid development with lifestyle offerings triggered by changes in Muslim consumer mindset and ethical consumer trends around the world (Zailani et al. , 2. Halal label has become a guaranteed product that is permitted, not only for Muslims but a global symbol of lifestyle choices and quality assurance. Religious values strengthen the relationship between awareness and purchasing decisions (Ngah et , 2. Consumer decisions to buy cosmetics and body care products labeled as halal are influenced by subjective norms, attitudes, behavioral control and consumer purchase intentions (Sama & Trivedi, 2. To predict the needs of halal cosmetics, marketers must study consumer buying behavior so that appropriate marketing strategies can be designed to meet the needs of consumers, which in turn will stimulate the growth of the halal product industry in Indonesia (Sukesi & Akbar Hidayat, 2.

According to International Monetary Fund data, the expenditure of halal cosmetics products reaches US $ 61 billion per year in 2019 and it is estimated that in 2024 there will be a growth of around nine percent of the consumption of halal cosmetics which will be spent globally at US $ 90 billion per year. The influence brand image of halal cosmetics on brand loyalty In the research hypothesis that the brand image of halal cosmetics brands has an influence on brand loyalty proven. By having a brand image positive, consumers have a perception that is embedded in their minds that the brand can fulfill their desires and Brand based on the experience gained has a number of attributes and benefits expected by consumers (Ngah et al. , 2.

The dynamic environment in business forces marketing within companies to always look for innovative, creative and flexible ways to adapt. The company's marketing agility in seeing opportunities and trends desired by consumers is a reminder for companies to serve these requests and not be complacent. The company will look for ways to form collaborations with customers. This relationship must begin with creating trust in consumers (Parihar & Dawra, 2. Marketing companies will innovate to create brand loyalty, which of course cannot be separated from trust in brands. Positive impression of the brand must be maintained properly (Kataria & Saini, 2. to gain the trust of consumers (Akn & Okumu, 2.
