Key Highlights
Older Consumers represent over a quarter of the value share of the UK Skincare market. This is indicative of the UK having an aging population – Older Consumers represent 29% of the UK. Marketers should ensure that they target this demographic in order to avoid missing a large section of the available market.
Branded products account for just below 90% of the Skincare market across all categories, with Private Label products accounting for the remainder. This indicates that, in matters of Skincare, most consumers are Brand loyal; however there is a significant proportion for whom for the value for money provided by Private Label products is attractive. This is further supported by ‘Better Value for Money’ being a leading factor influencing consumption trends in the UK with 21.3% of consumers quoting this as important.
Urban Dwellers in the UK account for 74% of the Depilatory market but only 70% of the population. This indicates that Urban Dwellers are willing to spend more on these products than their Rural neighbors – a factor that needs to be accounted for in marketing campaigns.
