  • Access to Clients Portal
  • Custom Presentation Tool

The facial skincare market in Thailand is undergoing a distinct transformation, with premiumisation at the forefront. Brands are increasingly incorporating dermacosmetics into their luxury offerings to meet the demand for efficacious yet safe options.

Gen X consumers gravitate towards anti-ageing solutions that address existing skin issues, reflecting their preference for simple, results-driven products. Meanwhile, Gen Zers are drawn to gel textures, aligning with their preference for gentle yet effective skincare. These trends highlight a shift towards targeted and functional skincare products that cater to specific generational needs and preferences.

This report looks at the following areas:

  • Monthly spending on beauty and personal care products
  • Preferences for essential skincare steps and products
  • Preferred formats and textures of facial skincare products
  • Opportunities in premium facial skincare
  • Links between skincare formats, textures and perceived benefits

Combine dermacosmetic function with luxury in premium skincare. Target Gen X with anti-ageing products for visible signs and Gen Z with gel-based skincare.

Trusted by global industry leaders

We use Mintel to inform our thinking and reinforce strategy. If you’re presenting new ideas, it’s essential they are underpinned by robust data and evidence, and clearly rooted in fact.

Mintel gives us all that. It’s a great brand and one that is trusted by clients.

Marie Stafford, European Director, The Innovation Group, VML

There is no question that Mintel is the go-to resource for the best quality market research, but I did not think it was an affordable option for Abacus Marketing to consider. As a small marketing agency, we only work with a few new clients each year.

However, we have a very high-end consultative approach to our work, so we really do need a partner like Mintel to provide the big agency experience we are always aiming to deliver. Our clients come from an incredibly diverse range of industry sectors, so we obviously need access to market research reports from a very wide spectrum of marketplaces – and that is precisely what we got.

Stephen Taylor-Brown, Managing Director, Abacus

Mintel helps us when we want to know something quickly – it provides fast answers to our questions. If we need to get a view of what’s going on in a particular market it’s very useful.

When carrying out background research, I find Mintel an excellent starting point.

The fact that it covers so many markets is a big plus for me– instead of having to buy specialist products in each area we are interested in, especially when we only require a brief view on a particular market, we can go to Mintel for help as a one-stop shop. I find Mintel a useful and valuable resource.

Ben Zeidler, Director - Research and Analytics, Tenth Wave

We have such a great working relationship with Mintel on lots of different levels. As an insight partner, they have helped us to develop our business planning in specific categories as well as supporting our creative process but they’ve also been super helpful with facilitating our events in their inspirational offices near St Paul’s.

They’re an innovative company, with a client-focused team that always delivers.

Abby Carvosso, Group Managing Director, Bauer Media Group

Working in a customer-obsessed organization means that data and insights have to be at our fingertips. Mintel’s reports help us support anecdotes with real quantifiable insights. The summary sections (which I really like) helps save time by giving a birds eye view of the content before spending time combing through the pages.

Our business review discussions are strengthened by the relevancy of the reports to help us better understand our customers. In addition, the customer service received from the team (especially in crunch periods) makes the process of understanding customer behavior even better.

Ngozi Ngonadi-Nkwoji, Senior Marketing Manager, Amazon
