Key Trends
The Need for Natural
According to Mintel, claims such as vegan, ethical, sustainable and organic were all heavily featured in skincare products launched in 2019.
With the new consumer desire to not only look and feel good, but also ‘do good’, there is potential for formulators to innovate with naturally derived ingredients in order to appeal to sustainability-concious consumers, especially Generation Z, with 68% of them expecting brands to positively contribute to society (Cosmetics Business).
Busier Lifestyles – Multifunctional Products
With the world around us becoming more fast paced, there’s an opportunity for formulators to offer multifunctional, efficacious products that make consumers’ lives as simple and easy as they possibly can be. For example, a foundation may have elevated benefits and drive usage if it also prevents ageing.
