Are there friction points unique to cosmetics (shade anxiety) blocking conversion?

As a cosmetics e-commerce brand, I'm struggling with unique conversion challenges specific to beauty products. Customers seem hesitant to purchase makeup and skincare online due to concerns about color matching, texture compatibility, and fear of wasting money on products that might not suit their individual skin tone or type. These 'shade anxiety' friction points are causing significant cart abandonment and reduced conversion rates. How can I design a strategy that overcomes these psychological barriers and helps customers feel confident making online cosmetic purchases?
