47 of 57 Introduction Cosmetics is one of the secondary products most consumed by young people today (Irfany et al.
, 2.
Caring for beauty is part of the human instinct, especially for women.
The tendency is to like something beautiful, an essential part of human life.
Questions arise and even doubts about cosmetics are caused by a lack of information.
The cause is a lack of specific details about cosmetics related to Islamic The religion of Islam does not reject every progress achieved by humankind (Wisudanto et , 2.
However, as a religion that requires humankind to be safe in the afterlife.
Islam provides principles that must be obeyed in every face of development in this life for the sake of the safety and benefit of humanity.
According to the Institute for the Study of Food.
Drugs, and Cosmetics.
Indonesian Ulema Council (LPPOM-MUI), what is meant by halal products are products that meet the requirements of halal Islamic law.
First, they do not contain pork or products derived from pigs.
Second, they do not contain forbidden materials, such as ingredients derived from human organs, blood, or excrement.
Third, all ingredients come from animals slaughtered according to Islamic Sharia procedures (Nuryakin et al.
Fourth, all storage places, places of sale, processing, and transportation may not be used for pigs.
It must first be cleaned according to Islamic law if it has ever been used for pork or other non-halal Fifth, all foods do not contain khamr .
LPPOM-MUI revealed that the critical ingredients for halal cosmetics include: first, fats and their derivatives, which are usually used as ingredients in lipsticks, soaps, creams, and lotions, that come from Second, collagen and elastin help maintain skin elasticity.
This substance is often used as a moisturizing product and comes from animals.
Third, placenta and amnion extract .
mniotic flui.
are used for skin rejuvenation and obtained from animals or other animal substances (Wisudanto et al.
Indonesia is the largest halal target market in the world.
This large market opportunity can be maximized by reaching various generations for halal products.
The young Muslim generation in Indonesia has the most potential to become a large market in selling many halal products, especially in the cosmetics industry segment, which is growing rapidly in the world (Randeree, 2.
Based on Ishak et al.
research, the factors influencing the millennial generation (Y) in consuming halal products are positive attitudes about halal, the social environment, such as family and friends, and being cautious about accepting halal products.
It was explained that a positive attitude towards halal products is the most important behavior when consuming them.
The attitude of younger generation consumers in choosing halal products has not been widely discussed and researched.
Religion/beliefs, mass media, and the surrounding environment can influence the younger generation's positive attitude toward halal Worldwide.
Muslim consumers increasingly assert their sensibilities in the cosmetics product Muslim consumers globally spent billions on cosmetic consumption, which represented 5.
of global spending.
Halal cosmetic products are defined as those that do not contain alcohol, pork, porkbased gelatin, pork by-products, or any other animal by-products unless slaughter follows Islamic Halal cosmetic products with various derivative products ranging from shampoo, face cream, and face makeup to lipstick, which is part of the circle of halal cosmetic products (Kurniawati & Savitri.
Muslim consumers prefer halal to non-halal products (Figure .
In essence, if there is competition between non-halal and halal products in similar industry segments.
Muslim consumers will choose halal ones (Hanafiah & Hamdan, 2.

48 of 57 Meanwhile, in the more specific youth segment, the millennial generation has unique characteristics in their consumption behavior.
It includes consuming halal cosmetic products.
This type of consumer always involves the internet, social media, and the influence of influencers in considering their purchasing decisions (Handriana et al.
, 2.
Previous studies and literature have shown that subjective norms, the behavior of accepting halal products, and religiosity influence the consumption of halal products (Widyanto & Sitohang, 2.
MuslimsAo attitudes about halal products may be influenced by Islamic halal standards, as well as the benefits of consuming halal products versus the downsides of ingesting non-halal products.
Regarding purchasing decisions for halal products.
Sholihin et al.
explain that the health factor is dominant.
Therefore, in this case, halal product producers must transparently explain the manufacturing process so consumers feel confident about the halal product.
Within the scope of conventional economics, consumption behavior is always associated with the use value .
contained in the goods consumed.
Utility in economics means satisfaction or pleasure that someone consuming a product can obtain, whether goods or services.
Conventional consumption behavior is only based on the level of satisfaction.
Consumers will tend to continuously consume an item until the desired maximum level of satisfaction is met, so there are no norms or ethical boundaries in consuming.
only satisfaction is the limit for someone consuming from a conventional economic approach (Moore-Berg et al.
, 2.
Far different from the conventional economic approach, consumption in Islam focuses more on the application of Islamic values contained in the Qur'an and Hadith in every consumption behavior that is carried out.
It is the basic difference from conventional consumption principles, which only rely on the satisfaction level.
Consumption in Islam is an activity carried out by a person to fulfill their needs by selecting, searching, and using it, which is always based on Islamic religious norms.
One of the commands contained in the Qur'an is to consume halal food as the Word of Allah SWT in Al-Baqarah verse 168.
Based on what is stated in Al-Baqarah verse 168.
Allah commands all humans to consume halal and thayyib goods.
Thus, as a Muslim consumer, it is obligatory to practice what Allah has commanded in consuming goods (Hanafiah & Hamdan, 2.
In consumer behavior involving religious teachings, consciousness has been hypothesized to play an important role in determining buying intention (Usman et al.
, 2.
Bashir .
stated that awareness is the hope of Muslim consumers in Indonesia.
High consumer awareness is hoped to encourage producers to care more about halal products/services.
In the end, it is hoped that halal will become absolute for producers of all products aimed at Muslim consumers.
According to Azam .
, halal awareness is the ability of consumers to form a pattern of awareness about the important factors of religious signs in consuming a product (Akn & Okumu, 2021.
Amer, 2024.
Kristanto & Kurniawati, 2023.
Mohammed et al.
, 2023.
Mursid & Anoraga, 2.
For example, consider how well a Muslim can separate halal and non-halal products while preventing contamination during shipment and storage.
Unfortunately, the concept of halal has been conventionally limited to food or anything related to food.
In Islam, halal also covers larger aspects of life, such as the business and banking industries (Fauzi, 2023.
Suandi et al.
, 2.
Muslims and non-Muslims around the world have become more receptive to the issue of halal.
As a Muslim, halal is a prerequisite for all things, methods, and processes applied and consumed daily (Hassan & Ara, 2022.
Ramdani et al.
, 2.
According to Bashir .
, halal awareness is MuslimsAo understanding of problems related to the concept of halal.
This knowledge includes understanding what is legal and how the production process for a product is in accordance with Islamic halal standards.
Based on their research, halal awareness products are determined by positive attitudes.
A positive attitude is a positive perception of halal Awareness among consumers can be a major determining factor in the purchasing decisionmaking process (Kurniawati & Savitri, 2.
For that reason.
Muslims need to have, understand, and know about halal in measuring halal awareness.
As mentioned by Azam .
, halal products are not only raw materials but also include other aspects such as safety and quality, handling, processing equipment, processing aids, packaging, storage, transportation, distribution, and retail.
In the digital era, consumer perception in the internet network is important to look for the strongest factors to determine a product's success (Hu & Basiglio, 2023.
Jadhav et al.
, 2023.
Tong & Chan, 2.
The consumers of halal cosmetics in several Muslim countries benefit from the growth of the halal industry, where the market is dynamic to generate many opportunities that lift the trend of halal cosmetics (Amiri et al.
, 2023.
Liew & Karia, 2.
However, several factors make this a trend among Muslim consumers, especially in the digital world where many factors play a role (Ab Talib et al.
, 2020.
Ashraf et al.
, 2023.
Mostafa, 2023.
Sen et al.
, 2020.
Umar, 2020.
Zaki & Elseidi, 2.
As a result, it is difficult to determine which focus factors are relevant.
Therefore, this study explores, trims, and Indonesian Journal of Halal Research | DOI: 10.

Based on several concepts, we have developed a list of statements (Table .
that are research instruments related to halal cosmetics in the perception of the millennial generation.
This part reveals a method that explores factors that can provide a common thread connecting young people's perceptions, halal awareness, social media, and their relationship with the halal cosmetics industry.
The Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) method can provide a complete picture and It is a quantitative method that is exploratory in nature.
thus, it can be useful for achieving the objectives of writing this article.

According to Hair et al.
EFA is exploratory quantitative research.
In EFA, factor analysis is a procedure for examining data and providing research with information on how many factors are needed to describe the data.
All random factors are related by an estimate to form a group of factors (Hair et al.
, 2.
In several studies, it has also been stated that EFA can be used when the latent variable has unclear indicators.
The reason is that indicators of one latent variable can overlap with indicators of other latent variables (Akomah & Ramani.

Lastly, the sixth factor is related to brand trust and product quality.
In the end, millennials will also consider the quality of the products they choose.
They choose a cosmetic product that is influential on their health with a trusted choice.

means that it is a form of consumer behavior after purchasing.
Quoquab et al.
found that the experience after purchasing and using certain halal products can directly impact customer loyalty.
The experience of using halal cosmetics with guaranteed ingredients and production processes can create loyal consumers, even if competition with regular cosmetics enters the realm of price.
Most halal consumers do not regard low pricing as the most important advantage.
quality assurance is more important to them.
If these elements are fulfilled, the bridge to customer loyalty will naturally form.
Conclusion Producers and marketers of halal cosmetics must be able to match the expectations of the millennial generation, the majority of whom make purchasing decisions based on social media recommendations.
The internet and social media are the main impetus for the millennial generation to make choices for a product, especially halal cosmetics.
Based on the results of this study, six main factors can increase the interest of the millennial generation in making choices about halal cosmetics: (Factor .

55 of 57 producer in the halal cosmetics industry must pay attention to market demand before carrying out innovation and production to achieve a cosmetics industry that can survive the competition.
The previous mistake was starting innovation and developing new products without being balanced by indepth market knowledge, making it difficult for the halal cosmetics industry in Indonesia to maximize market control.
This study is limited to assessing surface factors, and the findings do not thoroughly grasp the complicated elements.
The EFA study is an initial stage that can open many doors to different types of research.
Advanced quantitative research using the Structural Equation Modeling method can be carried out by linking purchase intention with many variables.
The results of this EFA study can also be followed up with qualitative research to provide an in-depth analysis of the phenomenon.
As for practical implications, this study is expected to be a simple model factor for halal cosmetics products to reach the millennial generation as their customers.
