Diverging Trends: Prestige Beauty Soars as Mass Market Stagnates in 2024's First Half
In the first half of 2024, the U.S. beauty market witnessed a stark division between its prestige and mass market segments. According to Circana, the prestige market saw an 8% growth driven predominantly by higher-income consumers, while the mass market remained stagnant. The trend reflects a growing consumer inclination towards value-driven purchases within the higher-end sector, with notable increases in categories such as fragrances and skincare, particularly body sprays and premium skincare products. This shift suggests a consumer preference for luxury experiences at more accessible price points, even as the mass market struggles with declining unit sales and a reliance on price increases to boost revenue.

Navigating India's Luxury Market: Current Trends and Future Potential
India's luxury market, projected to grow from $8.5 billion in 2023 to $85–90 billion by 2030, currently thrives selectively, with certain segments like premium watches and fine jewelry standing out. While the potential for growth across broader luxury sectors like fashion and beauty exists, it remains largely untapped due to varying economic backgrounds and consumer preferences. Brands succeeding in this market are those that cater specifically to India's affluent class, offering exclusivity and personalized experiences, yet a strategic, nuanced approach is necessary to unlock the full potential of this diverse market.
