Beauty and Personal Care Global Industry Overview
Health-based industry cross-pollination
Competition in the beauty industry is spanning beyond its conventional borders to include pharmaceutical and food and beverages players, which now boast numerous products claimed to support skin and hair health among other body functions.
Green, clean and sustainable consumption
Starting with demand for natural products, it is now wider-encompassing to include clean labels, ethical credentials and sustainable sourcing. Consumers scrutinise not only safety and efficacy, but also ethical considerations in a product’s development.
Personalised product experiences
Smart technology is standardising personalised beauty solutions. Going forward, personalisation facilitates expansion as brands seeking to widen their offer can more accurately meet consumer needs by informing line extensions with insights obtained from the delivery of personalised offerings.
Digital engagement
As smart devices and app-based diagnostics become ubiquitous, consumer expectations will shift as personalisation becomes achievable based on real-time updates that encourage users to track results and choose products that exactly fit their needs.
Alternative distribution models
E-commerce was the fastest growing retail channel over 2011-2016. This is emboldening beauty brands, big and small, to operate online in novel ways, notably social selling and subscription boxes, which are expected to proliferate, as consumers can be reached more widely via social media.
