Why is beauty defying downturns seen in so many other consumer product categories? And how can brands continue to thrive at retail?Why is beauty defying downturns seen in so many other consumer product categories? And how can brands continue to thrive at retail?InputUX at Adobe StockBeauty retail is red hot, defying downward trends in many consumer categories. In fact, U.S. prestige beauty industry sales revenue grew by 14% year-over-year for the first nine months of 2023, according to Circana, while mass grew by 8% in the same period, signaling continued strength in the industry.

Notably, beauty was one of the few discretionary consumer product categories to grow in 2023, pointing to resilient shopper demand, even amid inflation concerns.

How do we explain this?

During "Beauty Retail 2024-2025," Beauty Accelerate will feature a discussion on how the category has defied gravity in recent years, driven by newness, continued growth in digital shopping channels and a physical retail resurgence, as well as emerging consumer trends and needs.

In this special session, experts from Circana and Credo will discuss the implications of the latest market data, as well as longer-range trends in beauty retail. From mass to prestige to clean/sustainable beauty, this session will offer takeaways for R&D, marketing, product development and more.

Our featured experts are:

  • Rie Maiden, VP of marketing and e-commerce, Credo Beauty. Credo is a pioneer in clean beauty retail, having established an industry-leading Credo Clean Standard and heightened transparency around ingredient sourcing. In addition, Credo has championed cruelty-free brands and products, while also fostering the Pact packaging take-back program. The retailer's influence has impacted packaging take-back programs at other retailers and led to a Conscious Beauty collaboration with Ulta Beauty.
  • Jennifer Famiano, an executive director and beauty industry analyst at Circana

Famiano will open the session with a brief data presentation outlining the highlights of the current beauty market and then take part in an in-depth panel discussion with Maiden, diving into the dynamics for the remainder of the year and into 2025.
