Soap, Bath, and Shower Products Consumer Insights
- Men of all generations prefer “for men” products. Despite this, men’s options are limited compared to women’s. With men’s evolving interest in self-care, health, and appearance, there’s room for brands to grow appeal in the masculine grooming space.
- Gentle cleansing is increasingly non-negotiable. Consumers believe that over-cleansing can strip the skin of good bacteria. Since last year’s version of this report, Mintel observes that this has led to gentle formulations becoming a baseline expectation across soap, bath, and shower segments.
