Canadean Ltd, March 2012, Pages: 91
Synopsis
This report provides the results for the Skincare market in France from Canadean’s unique, highly detailed and proprietary survey of consumers’ Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) consumption habits, and forms part of an overall series covering all CPG product markets.Its coverage includes, but is not limited to, consumption behaviors, the extent to which consumer trends influence their consumption and the value of the market these trends influence, brand and private label choices as well as retailer choices. Much of this information can also be analyzed by specific consumer group, providing hard and fast data on consumers and markets at the product category level.
Summary
Why was the report written?
Marketers in the Skincare market face a major challenge. Understanding market size and segmentation is valuable, but the keys to effective targeting is knowing just how valuable specific consumer groups are, and being able to quantify the impact of consumer trends.This report solves these problems by providing integrated survey-based data on consumer trends, consumer groups and market data which show exactly the size of consumer groups, how much of the Skincare market they account for and which consumer trends drive their behavior.
What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
As consumer confidence increases proportionally to economic recovery, consumer trends will be directly affected. Since the global financial crisis of 2008–2009 the retail market has been characterized by an increased amount of discount and own-brand products. Facial Care, Body Care and Hand care are not considered essential items and therefore consumption patterns have been comparatively affected. As economic and market recovery continues over 2012, consumption patterns will record a positive trend in both the Medium and Heavy frequency bands and the amount of Non-users should decrease.
What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
Consumers’ uptake of products and the influence of consumer trends are fundamental causes of change in markets – making knowing what these trends are and the extent of their influence crucial.The survey-based data provided in this report examines over 20 consumer trends that affect the market and examines the share of sales across 26 consumer groups – providing through the data a detailed insight into exactly who the consumer is and just how much impact the latest consumer trends are having.
What makes this report unique and essential to read?

Key Highlights
Almost 20% of Older Consumers in France are Heavy frequency consumers of Hand Care products, the highest proportion across all age groups. While ageing is a key driver of Hand Care consumption, there is a higher proportion of Heavy frequency users in the Early Young Adults age group than in the Older Young Adults and Pre-Mid-Lifers age groups, indicating that other factors can drive consumption.
Private label penetration in the Skincare market in France is low, with no product category recording a penetration in excess of 10%. This is low compared to other CPG categories, indicating that retailers may increase their investment in their Skincare private label programs in order to grow their market share.
Consumers in the Affluent and Moderate Income wealth groups combine to account for three-quarters of the Skincare market in France, indicating strong potential for aspirational and premium products.
