Executive summary

Growth of sales slowed down due to higher market saturation

The Czech cosmetics and toiletries market continued to grow in 2006, although slightly less dynamically than the previous year. This development was due to a number of factors, such as extensive innovations by companies that enhanced saturation on the cosmetics market.

Also contributing to the deceleration of market value growth was the consequent battle for Czech consumers via a numerous product promotions. As a result, Czech consumers became accustomed to frequent special offers, enabling them to purchase goods of the same quality and volume for reduced prices. This approach from manufacturers and distributors worked well for the Czech population, which was still generally very price sensitive at the end of the review period.

Skin care most dynamic thanks to borrowing self-tanning from sun care

Sales of skin products were the most dynamic thanks to effective product innovations. Trends from the previous year when the new products featured anti-ageing, anti-cellulite and body shaping properties, was added to with the new feature of a suntanned effect enhancing these already highly functional products.

This latest development is expected to advance over the next few years and add a subtle glimmering finish to the skin. Surprisingly, considering this development, the sun care sector performed well too, recording the biggest increase on the previous years. There were two factors underpinning this success: the popularity of self-tanning products, which stood fast against competition from the latest skin care products, and the summer in 2006 was much hotter than in the previous years.

Oral care has best outlook thanks to social pressure

Oral care will concentrate on prevention, which is predicted to underscore the most dynamic growth over the forecast period. Better educated consumers will use more functional products as a response to higher pressure for oral care.

Health condition and the appearance of teeth will become an important part of people’s presentation; therefore consumers will adopt more sophisticated routines in oral care, using a variety of specialised products, which will stimulate the growth of sales.

Men’s grooming products grow as men overcome shyness

As they are increasingly adopting a Western lifestyle, Czech men are also developing male grooming patterns using dedicated products for men. Men’s grooming products are predicted to be the second most dynamic sector over the forecast period for reasons similar to those supporting oral care, in other words a greater importance being placed on presentation and appearance, with better groomed men having the edge.

Supported by manufacturers and women, Czech men will no longer feel uneasy about using anti-aging products (as was often the case over the historic period). Also, the developing metrosexual trend will speed up this process. As a result, men’s grooming products will not solely be the domain of the trendy young male population.

Foods in cosmetics as a new trend, elevated from natural ingredients

The leading trend of cosmetics based on natural ingredients, such as plant and fruit extracts, has developed further more into the use of foods. This echoes the health and wellness trends in foods, with the idea of what is good for a body inside must work well on outside too. First attempts of this kind were seen on the market with almonds, milk and honey introduced to bath and shower products, for example. However, these were just ingredients, while the new trend has seen the introductions of complete food products into the cosmetic market. In particular, yoghurt was launched by Henkel’s Fa (bath and shower) in 2005 and extended into deodorants in 2006.
