Task prompt
What the agent was asked to do
Using the State of Fashion Beauty report for June 2025: 1. Identify whether consumers are more likely to save or splurge on facial serum and brow product. 2. State the net intent percentages of consumers who are likely to save or splurge for each of those two products, rounded to the nearest full percentage. 3. Calculate the average net consumer intent percentage for each of the three main categories, including only products with a positive net consumer intent percentage. Round to one decimal point. Report which category customers are least likely to splurge on. Just write your response straight here for me.
