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 organized retail market has been characterized by an increased amount of discount and own-brand products. Body Care, Facial Care, Depilatories 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.

Key Highlights
Cohort group analysis by wealth reveals that Affluent wealth group has the largest share of the Skincare market in by value. This group, in addition to the Moderate Income wealth group, accounts for over two-thirds of the Skincare market in China, indicating strong potential for aspirational and premium products.
Retailer volume analysis reveals that in China the three largest organized retailers, all international retailers, account for over half of the country’s Skincare market by volume. This gives them a strong bargaining power with their suppliers.
Private labels hold a market share of approximately 10% across all product categories in the Skincare market in China. This is relatively high compared to other Health and Beauty CPG markets in China, primarily as a result of the high market share of large retailers such as Carrefour, Walmart and Tesco in the distribution of Skincare products in the country. However, brands provide aspirational products for Chinese consumers and as such private label gains are expected to be limited in the near future.
