We see a shift in health and personal care trends post-pandemic – If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is the importance of taking care of ourselves.\u00a0<\/p>

As one of the biggest retail markets in the world, the Beauty<\/a> & Personal Care<\/a> industry is expected to reach an astounding USD 571 billion in 2023, with a CAGR of 3.8% up to 2027[1]<\/strong>. With increasing dependence on digital shopping platforms, an expected 27.5% of the total industry revenue will be generated online.<\/p>

Despite a volatile economy and high inflation rates, retail market experts explain the reason behind such solid growth in the beauty industry is the need for consumers to feel and look good, especially during hard times and in the face of potential recessions[2]<\/strong>. Instead of buying high-value luxury goods, consumers look towards smaller luxury items such as makeup and beauty products<\/a> to achieve this goal, something economic experts call the \u2018Lipstick<\/a> Effect\u2019[3]<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In response to consumers\u2019 increasing hunger for more potent beauty products, brands are answering demands through the medicalization of products. Beauty Rx is all about integrating synthetic natural ingredients backed by medical claims. According to industry research, over 53% of US beauty and personal care shoppers research beauty ingredients to understand product effectiveness before purchasing[4]<\/strong>.<\/p>

The Beauty Rx trend also gives rise to a biotech movement in the beauty and personal care industry, where businesses invest huge amounts of money in discovering effective beauty ingredients that already exist in natural environments within organisms[5]<\/strong>. By cultivating wild plants such as algae<\/a> and trees<\/a>, beauty brands commonly extract specific beautifying properties from nature to create effective beauty products for shoppers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Consumers are becoming increasingly focused on the \u2018Personal\u2019 aspect of personal care by paying attention to specifically catered experiences or products. According to research conducted by McKinsey, 71% of consumers are currently expecting personalization whilst shopping[6]<\/strong>. 58% of shoppers are more inclined to purchase products just by beauty brands offering online quizzes to recommend products for them[7]<\/strong>.<\/p>

Especially with diversity and inclusion being more prominent within the beauty industry, many brands offer more and more custom products, such as custom foundation shades<\/a> and haircare products<\/a>, to cater to consumers of different races, ages, skin types and body types. The idea of personalization of beauty products also extends to personalized packaging, where brands seek to enhance brand value and consumer experience with a personal touch.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The idea of \u2018Clean Beauty\u2019 is a relatively unregulated term that is one of the fastest growing categories within the personal care sector \u2013 especially for Gen Z consumers \u2013 consistent with the rising movement towards safety, sustainability and eco-friendliness<\/a>. According to market statistics, the global clean beauty market is expected to grow with over 40% CAGR up to 2028[8]<\/strong>.<\/p>

Though different brands still have inconsistent definitions of \u2018Clean Beauty\u2019, this term not only needs to be made with the safest possible ingredients, but it must also be non-toxic for consumer use and have the lowest environmental impact[9]<\/strong>. Products within the clean beauty sector should have their ingredients clearly labelled and produced cruelty-free<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
