Current Market Landscape

Many women who buy and use beauty and personal care products have made changes to their routines since the COVID-19 outbreak to make them feel more confident.
- 38% of women aged 16-24 have made changes to their routines since COVID-19 to improve their mental wellbeing. 75% of all women indicate that their beauty/grooming routine makes them feel more confident.
- 54% of consumers who have made changes to their routines since COVID-19 have done so to save money.
The rising cost of living will impact beauty and grooming routines, with the rising price of BPC products resulting in some savvy shopping behaviours which may impact repertoires.
Future Market Trends in Beauty and Grooming RoutinesÂ
One of the biggest threats to beauty and grooming routines is the shift to hybrid working since the pandemic, spurred on by COVID-19. This is because people tend to have a more relaxed approach to their beauty routines on work-from-home days. Opportunities, however, exist for beauty/personal care brands to address and mitigate any negative impact on routines from hybrid working.
The spotlight on climate change will inspire disruptive innovation that helps consumers carry out their beauty/grooming routines in a more sustainable manner, while increasing companies’ profit margins. Brands can instil a more circular economy approach to routines, and pre-empt the impact of rising temperatures and water shortages on beauty routines. For example, expect increased demand for cooling, low foam/fast rinse and leave-in formulas. Transparency around a brand’s eco credentials will also be key.

Pent-up demand in Q1 2022 will help drive consumer engagement with beauty/grooming routines, especially for those daily routines which have foundered since the start of the pandemic, notably applying makeup. There are opportunities to further boost consumer engagement with beauty/grooming routines by boldly conveying the confidence-boosting and wellness merits of following routines, as well as targeting new usage occasions linked to hybrid working approaches.”
