The burgeoning social movements, activist parades and inclusivity rights have forced people from all walks to reshape their ideals and usurp the dogmatic and discriminatory beliefs. From fast food franchises to the clothing industry, every sector is now concerned with reflecting humanitarian values. Cosmetics and Beauty are not alien to this wake either. Did you know that the worldwide cosmetic industry is valued at $ 80.73 Billion? The cosmetic industry, to promote itself, has been showcasing product transparency and inculcating gender-neutral beauty values. To stand out and make an excellent name for your brand in this prospering competition, you must make way for ideas and trends that speak to your targeted audience and more. There are specific trends to note when opting to mirror an advanced and evolved image of your company.
Long gone are the days when female-centric beauty crowded every space of the beauty market. With acceptance becoming the hallmark of brands, male beauty care products are slowly making their way into the mainstream hub. We no longer live in a world where men will be forced to apply female beauty products. With the acceptance of differentiation between the skin of both men and women, the cosmetic industry is heading towards providing products specifically designed for males.
The evolution isn’t just restricted to accommodating men’s needs but promoting gender-neutral items and products. Shedding off the habit of labelling anything and everything, the world of the cosmetic industry is heading towards a new and diversified era.
We are entering a new decade of change from the centuries-old practice of one-size-fits-all and the archaic trends of plastering ourselves with the same few euro-centric products. A world where diversity isn’t masked behind synchronized and monotonous beauty but is instead embraced with pride. Introducing products suited to every shape, size, colour, shade, gender, and skin is a profound step towards inclusivity. In the land of 7 billion entities, pasting them all with the same product is blatantly unfair and inconsiderate. The individual’s differences only unite us instead of driving us apart. Understanding consumers’ requirements and compensating them with their desired products should be the goal of every brand. Mintel suggests that one-third of skincare users in the UK opt for personalized skin care formulas specific to them. Customized cosmetics, oil, and shampoos all line up to promote customised beauty care.
If there’s one thing we can all agree on, investing hoards of our hard-earned money for receiving minutes of beauty acclamation on our skin and hair is not worth the effort. Synthetization is precisely why many brands are switching to accessorizing their supplies with natural and herbal products. Due to synthetic products’ harmful effects on humans and the environment, there is a shift to eco-friendly and chemical-free products. Consumers’ needs are now placed on using cosmetics that don’t harm them in the long run. With the changing consumer needs, the cosmetic industry should also transform its priorities accordingly.
Something that consumers appreciate above all is being heard. So empathize and engage with your customer needs and shape your company’s ideals and goals accordingly. Keeping your customers happy and satisfied should be the prime responsibility of every brand. Companies should keep evolving and customizing their products according to customers’ choices and trends.
