Colour Cosmetics - Eyes, Lips, Nails - Europe - July 2011

Colour Cosmetics - Eyes, Lips, Nails - Europe - July 2011

Thanks to fashion trends, the so-called ‘lipstick effect’ and new product development, which has concentrated on brightening and illuminating make-up and products that offer ease of use and long-lasting results, value sales of eye, lip and nail colour cosmetics grew in all five leading European markets in 2010, with France the largest at €946 million, just ahead of Germany. Nail make-up was the best-performing sector across the board, thanks greatly to recent fashion trends that have favoured bright colours. The outlook for 2011 is of further growth in the big 5 European markets.

Some of the key findings, among others, from the report are:

  • Product innovation and the ‘lipstick effect’ ensured value growth in the big 5 European markets in 2010, with nail make-up the most dynamic, thanks greatly to fashion trends.
  • New product development focuses on ease of use and long-lasting results, with brightening and illuminating make-up also featuring strongly.
  • When it comes to niche products, lip colour with moisturising ingredients currently enjoys the largest consumer base, reflecting the growing demand for make-up with skincare benefits. Anti-ageing lip colour has substantial potential to grow in the coming years.


£1,999.01

  • French beauty giant, L’Oréal, is the undisputed leader in European make-up sales, thanks to its extensive product portfolio of well-established brands covering all price points.
  • Women in Europe are the most willing to pay a price premium for lipstick/gloss, while being the most frugal when purchasing nail polish.
  • While the use of eye shadow and nail varnish is biased towards women aged 15-24, lipstick/gloss has a more mature core consumer base.

The following product categories are used in the report:

Eye make-up: Eye shadows, eye liners, eyebrow pencils, kohl and mascara, mineral powders.

Lip make-up: Lipstick, lip glosses, lip pencils, lip plumpers, pots and palettes.

Nail make-up: Nail varnishes and polishes, hardeners and strengtheners, base and top coat.

Forecast data are based on population growth.
