The aim of this research is to identify the influences of consumers’ purchase decision based on different culture. The quantitative method was chosen as it best fits the purpose of this study that attempts to understand Taiwan and France consumers’ behavior in making the decision to buy cosmetics products. The findings may be useful to online retailers, international companies, as well as marketers and practitioners to recognize and better understand the new trends that occur in the cosmetics industry. This study also suggests that manufacturers can develop effective marketing strategies by emphasizing the quality of product, price, packages, fragrances, and designs of product...etc. to enhance consumers’ perceived value to expend their purchase intentions in different culture due to their understanding of different culture behavior.
