Chinese consumers are expected to splurge on high-end beauty products this year, boosting travel retail revenues for global brands emerging from pandemic setbacks.

CGTN spoke to Caroline Andreotti, Coty's chief commercial officer for luxury, at the ongoing China International Consumer Products Expo.
