What's the best timing for launch discounts on new cosmetics lines?

As a cosmetics brand manager, I'm struggling to determine the optimal timing and strategy for launching discounts on our new product lines. I want to create excitement and drive initial sales without devaluing the brand or appearing too desperate. How can I strategically time and structure discounts for new cosmetic product launches to maximize initial revenue, generate buzz, and attract the right customer segments without compromising long-term brand perception?
