Untapped markets: A new emphasis on inclusivity opens up the market

Cosmetics and toiletry store revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 3.2% over the five years through 2022-23. Despite intense and increasing competition from department stores, online rivals and even clothing shops like H&M, beauty shops have fought back by expanding in-store beauty offerings. Shifting consumer attitudes towards social constructs and a growing emphasis on inclusivity have cast a wider sales net and opened up a bigger market. The rise in popularity of social media and the dramatic increase in the number of photos and videos posted online propels sales from the younger generation.
