Key Market Trends Inclination Toward Vegan and Cruelty-free Cosmetics Products
The cruelty-free (no animal testing), vegetarian (no byproducts of animal slaughter), and vegan (no animal ingredients at all) beauty market has exploded in recent years globally and has been finding its space in the Indian market too. In May 2014, the Ministry of Health & Family of India published the cosmetic testing ban, which added the new rule “148-C. prohibition of testing of cosmetics on animals, such that no person shall use any animal for testing of cosmetics” to the existing Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945. Moreover, with the advancement of vegan products in the country, Indian consumers are paying extra attention to not only a particular shade of lipstick that suits them but also about how the lipstick is made. Additionally, global vegan cosmetics companies are also venturing into the Indian market, thus expanding the scope for the same in the country.
Rising Penetration of Color Cosmetic Products in the Country
With the rise in the adoption of western culture, the color cosmetics market is one of the fastest-growing markets in India. As the aesthetic appeal in the young generation is rising, the penetration of color cosmetics products in the Indian market is increasing. India is estimated as one of the fastest-growing countries, in terms of color cosmetics, in the Asian region.
