Highlights
Females feel under more social pressure than males to look good. Males are less concerned with personal appearance and they are less likely to consume a beauty product because they feel forced to. The idea that masculinity involves a disregard for appearance is however outdated - many males actively seek ways to improve it.
Though growth in oral beauty products has been high, it has already showed signs of slowing. Much depends on the next 510 years when considering whether oral beauty becomes mainstream or simply an expensive novelty. Also, recession could impact on consumers' willingness to try a product for the first time simply due to their price premium.
Product launch trends indicate that beauty drinks may be the category that thrives in the short-medium term. Beauty foods have been set back by the failure of Danone's Essensis, which was expected to bring them into the mainstream. Oral beauty supplements have also seen flat launch numbers. Beauty drinks, in contrast, have continued to increase.
