Amidst growing concerns about environmental degradation, global trends increasingly emphasize the urgency to adopt eco-friendly consumption patterns. This paradigm shift drives the emergence of sustainability-centered products, especially in the cosmetics sector. Despite experiencing substantial growth, the eco-friendly cosmetics industry in Indonesia continues to grapple with various obstacles that require resolution. In addition, researchers' attention to green cosmetics still needs to be increased. This study integrates environmental consciousness into the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) framework to bridge this research gap. The main objective is to comprehensively examine consumers' intention to purchase environmentally friendly cosmetic products. By employing a quantitative approach, we surveyed a sample of 305 respondents from Indonesia. The collected data was then analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) technique to validate the hypotheses. The results showed that environmental consciousness and subjective norms directly and significantly affect consumer attitudes. Likewise, environmental consciousness, subjective norms, and consumer attitudes influence consumers' intention to purchase green cosmetics. In addition, it was revealed that consumer attitude serves as a potential mediator in mediating the effect of environmental consciousness and subjective norms on consumer purchase intention. This study offers insights into sustainable cosmetics. Companies can use this to enhance marketing strategies for environmentally conscious products.

The aim of this study is to investigate the influencing factor on consumers’ intentions towards purchasing Islamic hotel service. It also investigates the moderating influence of religiosity on these relationships. Data collected using the survey method and 200 usable questionnaires were received from respondents. Regression analysis was conducted to test the hypothesis. The results show a positive and significant relationship between halal awareness, norms and attitude. It also shows that there are non-significant relationships between brand image and price and consumers ‘intentions toward purchasing Islamic hotel service. The study indicates that religiosity has a moderating effect on the relationships between the factors (halal awareness and subjective norms) and consumers’ intentions towards purchasing Islamic hotel service. By understanding the relationship among the constructs in the research model, hotel managers could improve consumer intention. They can focus on the halal awareness, subjective norm and religiosity in their marketing activities.
