Market Trends of France Beauty and Personal Care Products
This section covers the major market trends shaping the France Beauty & Personal Care Product Market according to our research experts:
Rising Demand for Natural/Organic Beauty and Personal Care Products
According to the Federation of Beauty Companies (FEBEA) data from 2021, skincare product contributes to 27% of total cosmetics revenue in France. The increased public concern regarding the adverse effects of synthetic chemicals, such as paraben and aluminum compounds used in skincare, hair care, and deodorants, led to increased demand for natural and organic products. Due to its natural formulation, many French consumers choose one brand over another; In recent years, there has been a rise in the market for clean, honest, and organic deodorant products in France. Purchases made depend on performance, which provides long-lasting protection and clinical properties. The market's appetite for natural ingredients has been apparent. Thus, several businesses have launched products containing nature-inspired ingredients, such as plant-inspired and luxury botanical ingredients combined with multi-functional properties. For instance, in October 2022, a French skincare brand, Typology, launched two natural deodorants to its body care collection. The deodorants are available in two scents i.e., Bergamot Green Mandarin and Rose Vanilla. Additionally, modern-age technology, resulting in innovative solutions in France, especially in the skincare segment, encourages many consumers to opt for beauty care products with functional benefits.
Oral Care is Projected to Grow at the Significant Growth Rate
The growing awareness about dental hygiene resulted in improved oral care regimes among people, propelling the market demand. Moreover, the easy availability and rising incidence of tooth decay, weak gums, and other issues have augmented the demand for the products. With high disposable income, a rise in oral complications realization, and product innovations, like electric toothbrushes, enticed the consumers to increase the product's sales. These electric brushes need replacement/refill heads once the battery expires. Such products are gaining popularity in France, boosting market demand. The benefits associated with toothpaste and its daily application among the French population resulted in a mature toothpaste market in the country. However, frequent consumption of more indulgent food with sweeteners and other sticky ingredients resulted in increased incidences of tooth decay due to which consumers are using toothpaste and other oral care products regularly. According to Sunstar Global Health Thinking Report of 2021, 50% of people brush their teeth twice a day in France. New product innovations and consumer demand for natural oral care products are driving the market. For instance, in June 2022, Bioseptyl, a French brand of oral hygiene products launched a toothpaste stick with solid toothpaste. The toothpaste is made of 100% natural ingredients. The products are natural, eco-designed, eco-friendly, and travel-friendly.
