Executive summary

Cosmetics and toiletries proved fairly resistant to economic slowdown

Cosmetics and toiletries recorded current value growth of 4% in 2008 despite the effects of the global financial crisis, which began to impact Danish consumer spending towards the end of the year. However, this was a slower performance than in the previous year, as well as compared to the review period value CAGR. Cosmetics and toiletries nonetheless proved fairly resistant to the economic slowdown. Despite growing price sensitivity, the market recorded positive value growth and was one of the best performing consumer product markets in 2008.

Polarised consumer preferences in 2008

In 2008, the economic slowdown polarised consumer preferences for cosmetics and toiletries, which during the review period shifted strongly towards the premium segment. Although growing at a considerably slower rate than the year before, demand for premium and masstige branded cosmetics remained dynamic in 2008, with natural/organics also emerging as a strong growth trend in skin care, sun care and baby care. Meanwhile, sales of toiletries such as bath and shower products, deodorants and oral hygiene shifted strongly towards private label and economy ranges. Across most cosmetics and toiletries sectors, mid-priced brands nonetheless performed significantly stronger than in 2007.

Nivea was the fastest growing brand

The mid-priced Nivea range was the fastest growing cosmetics and toiletries brand in 2008 in terms of value share increase. The strong performance was underpinned by renewed consumer price sensitivity, innovative product development in anti-ageing skin care and sun care products, and improved distribution through Denmark’s leading cosmetics and toiletries retailer, the Matas drugstore chain, where Nivea sun care products were given prominent shelf positions in 2008. In terms of the competitive landscape, another key development was the strong emergence of natural/organic brands such as Derma and Neutral. These were especially successful in baby care, as Danes are increasingly worried about dangerous additives and skin allergies.

Strong discounter growth

Driven by consumer price sensitivity, discounters gained significant share of the grocery retail market and thus also of cosmetics and toiletries distribution in 2008. This had a negative impact on cosmetics and toiletries market value growth. Discounters exerted a downward price pressure as market shares shifted towards private label and economy brands, especially within categories where grocery retailers are a key distribution channel, such as bath and shower products and oral hygiene. The trend nonetheless impacted considerably on most cosmetics and toiletries sectors in 2008. Further underpinning the tendency, discounters also continued to broaden their selections within most cosmetics and toiletries categories, including products such as deodorants, baby care and skin care, where supermarkets traditionally offer more choice.

Value growth of cosmetics and toiletries to slow further

Given the prospect of a prolonged economic downturn and growing consumer price sensitivity, average annual value growth of cosmetics and toiletries over the forecast period is expected to be much slower than growth in 2008 as well as compared to the review period CAGR. As the market strongly indicated in 2008, toiletries such as bath and shower products, oral hygiene and deodorants are more exposed to consumer price sensitivity and are expected, in terms of value growth, to record a considerably weaker performance than cosmetics-driven sectors or sectors with a strong trend towards natural/organic products. Thus, the most dynamically growing sectors over the forecast period are expected to include colour cosmetics, fragrances, baby care and sun care.
