There are hundreds if not thousands of lucrative niche ideas. Below are some examples of niche market products/ideas,

Cosmetics: Lush is a good example of a niche market. LUSH advocates for ethical buying and purity of handmade products. It differentiates itself from competitors with eco-friendly packaging, organic ingredients, and refusal of animal testing. Lush sells a viewpoint rather than an image. People whose views align with lush will definitely be a loyal target audience.
