Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to extend the Push-Pull-Mooring (PPM) theory to identify the factors influencing Muslim customers’ switching intention to halal-certified cosmetics.
Design/methodology/approach
A snowballing sampling method was used to distribute an online questionnaire via social media platforms. Of 403 questionnaires, only 363 were usable. SmartPLS 4 was used to analyse the data using a structural equation modelling approach.
Findings
The findings of this paper confirmed that social influence and scepticism have a positive effect on the switching intention to halal cosmetics. However, compatibility with current cosmetic products has a negative effect on the switching intention to halal cosmetics. On the other hand, negative side effects and negative past experiences have a positive effect on scepticism. Scepticism was also found to mediate the relationship between negative side effects and negative past experiences toward the switching intention to halal cosmetics.
Practical implications
The findings of this study primarily benefit cosmetics manufacturers, whether halal-certified or otherwise.
Originality/value
This study extends the PPM theory with negative side effects and negative past experiences. Moreover, this study also introduces new relationships and untested relationships between scepticism and switching intention. This study shows the mediating effects of scepticism on the relationship between negative side effects and negative past experiences toward switching intention.
