Dozens of protestors from different poltical groups march to Lancome's shop in Causeway Bay after the French company cancelled a concert featuring pro-democracy singer Denise Ho.

The company's decision came after Beijing newspaper Global Times accused it of inviting a "Hong Kong and Tibet independence advocate to promote products” while mainland internet users threatened to boycott the brand.
