Executive summary

Consumers continue to demand quality products

As consumers became increasingly affluent, this boosted the performance of cosmetics and toiletries, as they were no longer satisfied with products providing just basic features, but demanded products with additional benefits or an improved performance. Products such as nourishers/anti-agers were particularly popular amongst consumers, as they provided consumers with extra anti-ageing benefits on top of just basic moisturising. Manufacturers thus looked to develop products with added benefits to meet the demands of consumers, as consumers were willing to pay for them, despite their higher price.

Organic and natural products gain popularity

With the benefits of organic and natural products widely known, manufacturers launched many such products in 2008 to meet the demands of consumers. With relevant reports widely available in newspapers and magazines, consumers were educated on the benefits of organic and natural products compared with standard products. Thus, there were major launches of mineral make-up and organic skin care products from established brands in 2008.

International manufacturers maintain their dominance

Cosmetics and toiletries giants such as L'Oréal (S) Pte Ltd and Procter & Gamble (S) Pte Ltd continued their dominance in 2008. The strong standing of their brands, coupled with many key product launches such as L'Oréal Dermo-Expertise Derma Genesis and Gillette Fusion Power, and major advertising campaigns in 2008, resulted in their continued dominance. Domestic manufacturers remained insignificant due to their lack of budget for marketing and product launches. Consumers’ familiarity with established international brands also meant that they were reluctant to switch to domestic brands in 2008.

Consumers switch to channels selling products at cheaper prices

Department stores continued to be the leading distribution channel for cosmetics and toiletries in 2008, due to the success of premium brands in cosmetics and toiletries. Beauty specialist retailers such as Sa Sa and Beauté Spring increased in popularity in 2008 due to the economic slowdown, as they were able to sell products at very cheap prices. Masstige retailers such as The Face Shop also saw an increase, due to their popularity amongst consumers due to their affordability. Parapharmacies/drugstores also remained a key channel for sales of mass brands.

High penetration of products leads to minimal growth

Cosmetics and toiletries is likely to continue to experience a slowdown over the forecast period, as product categories such as body wash/shower gel, shampoo and facial cleanser already have very high penetration, hence resulting in limited growth. However, growth in very active product categories such as nourishers/anti-agers and colour cosmetics will fuel the growth of cosmetics and toiletries. However, the economic recession in 2009 is expected to further impact the performance of cosmetics and toiletries, as consumers cut back on product usage or even trade down to mass brands to tighten their belts.
