Market Trends of APAC Beauty And Personal Care Products Industry

Demand For Hair Care Products That Target Specific Issues

The hair care segment dominates the Asia-Pacific personal care products market. The demand for hair care and skin care is increasing in both rural and urban markets, leading to rising opportunities throughout the region. Consumers in urban areas spend three times as much on hair care and skin care products as compared to those in rural areas, providing significant scope for multiple brands to grow in the hinterlands. However, with the growing influence of media and television, rural consumers have been showcasing significant demand for hair coloring products, among others, which are often purchased in the sachet format in these areas. Amid the growing prevalence of hair thinning, loss of volume, dryness, and several other hair-related concerns among consumers, the hair care products that target these specific concerns are emerging as the most affluent and cost-effective ways to maintain hair health at home.

Furthermore, hair care product manufacturers have been heavily investing in research and development to experiment with new and improvised product formulations in shampoos, conditioners, hair tonics, serums, oils, and creams, which are gentle on the scalp and have regenerated properties to ensure faster hair growth and thicker volume. For instance, in January 2021, Emmbros Overseas, one of the fastest-growing Indian companies in the Beauty and HPC (Health and Personal Care) segment, introduced its premium hair care range titled the 'GO range' via St. Botanica. The range encompasses cruelty-free vegan shampoos, oils, serums, masks, and conditioners for specific hair requirements and concerns, including hair breakage, brittleness, fizziness, dandruff, hair fall, and sweat control, and is suitable for all hair types.

China Holds the Largest Share

The increasing awareness about a healthier lifestyle among individuals for healthy and hygienic living has contributed to the increase in per capita expenditure on household products (including personal care products) across China. As per the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the per capita expenditure on household products (including personal care products) across China increased to USD 3,781.2 in 2021, a nominal increase of 13.6% over the previous year. China is one of the world's hotspots and fastest-changing beauty markets, introducing industry-leading innovations and setting trends globally. Products with claims such as UV protection, long-lasting, moisturizing/hydrating, botanical/herbal, whitening, and anti-aging, account for a considerable number of product launches. Haircare products with specific functions such as anti-greying and anti-hair fall are witnessing significant growth, owing to the high adoption rate among the millennials and Gen-Z population. Brands are also coming up with customized approaches to cater to the growing demand. For instance, in May 2021, L'Oréal Paris launched an omnichannel concept store in collaboration with AKQA in Shanghai, offering visitors a personalized experience and cultivating a better relationship with customers.

Moreover, with the growing demand for premium cosmetic products such as K-Beauty and C-Beauty in the country, players operating in the market are focusing on expanding their product portfolio to achieve significant market shares. For instance, in October 2021, Sephora China released more than 240 new beauty products from 51 brands, revealing the newness of 7 C-beauty brands and the domestic debut of five overseas niche brands. For the first time, Sephora launched its C-Beauty showroom to show the emerging power of premium local beauty brands, including exclusive makeup brands MAOGEPINGLIGHT and COLOR STUDIO BY MARIE DALGAR, together with the debut of luxury art beauty brand YUMEE, which brought more possibilities of beauty within Eastern narratives.
