Why the battle for India's beauty business is intensifying
The article discusses the rapid growth of the beauty industry in India, driven by a young population, rising disposable incomes, and the proliferation of e-commerce. The Body Shop plans to double its business in India by 2025, expanding its store count and expecting significant e-commerce sales growth. Home-grown brands like WOW Skin Science are capitalizing on the demand for natural beauty products. Global brands such as L'Oreal and Unilever are investing in the region, with L'Oreal backing entrepreneurs through DSG Consumer Partners and Unilever Ventures investing in Indian startups like BeMinimalist and Plum Goodness.

A study published in Cosmetic Dermatology analyzed the quality of life of cosmetics users from eight Arab countries, revealing that attractiveness and self-confidence are primary reasons for cosmetics use among Arab women. The study highlighted that extreme weather conditions in the Middle East influence cosmetic choices, with perfumes and antiperspirants playing a significant role in boosting self-confidence. It also found that Western-style marketing campaigns often fail to resonate with Arab women, who prefer products tailored to their specific needs.
