Cosmetic and Toiletry Retailing in Australia - Market Research Report (2014-2029)

Digital beauty: Ongoing online competition has constrained industry revenue growth

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.

The Cosmetic and Toiletry Retailing industry sells thousands of cosmetic and toiletry brands through specialty cosmetics stores, with a constant array of new products acting as a key driving force in the industry's performance. Fusion and eco-friendly lines have stimulated demand in an otherwise mature, saturated market, as has the rollout of new experiential stores. These have been designed to capitalise on cosmetics' hands-on nature and entice online shoppers back into stores. Offering associated beauty services like brow bars, hair services and make-up classes has also helped to give the industry a new service-based revenue stream and boost profit margins, which have come under pressure from rival online beauty sites offering discounted beauty products.

Industry firms sell cosmetics, perfumes, toiletries and personal grooming products. Industry retailers include specialty cosmetics stores, perfume and fragrance stores, and beauty supply stores.
