The Future of Fashion in India A rising number of urban and small town consumers purchasing branded fashion has led to the growth of branded organized retail industry in India.

With government allowing up to 100 percent foreign investment in single brand retail, many foreign labels are eyeing an entry into this lucrative market.

The Indian retail market is expected to demonstrate a promising year-onyear growth of 6% to reach USD 865 billion, by 2023, from the current USD 490 billion. The share of apparel in India’s retail market is 8%, corresponding to a value of USD 40 billion. In addition to fashion apparel, the growing demand for fashion accessories makes the Indian fashion market both interesting and lucrative.

It comes as little surprise then, after Zara’s successful run in the country that many high-end foreign labels are planning to open stores in the country.

Recently Massimo Dutti and The Limited made their formal entry into India and over a dozen brands are rumored to be next in line for entry, including H&M, The Gap and Uniqlo. There has been a major shift in the way consumers in India are shopping, with interest in fashion increasing and growing willingness to take risks in fashion choices. Brands like Benetton, Zodiac, Z3, Zara, Vero Moda, Calvin Klein, Diesel and Tommy Hilfiger have experienced good sales growth in the country, while names like Zara, Armani, Forever21 or Uniqlo appeal to the Indian audiences, attracting higher per square foot sales compared to the departmental or hypermarket stores.

New studies are also boasting about the future prospects of the country’s luxury market. Assocham’s Secretary General, D S Rawat, recently said: “The luxury market is poised to expand three fold in next three years and the number of millionaires expected to multiply three times in another five years.”

In summary, India is still second to none when it comes to variety. With their myriad of colors, styles, patterns, fabrics and embroidery, Indian garments are a visual and tactile delight. Once trade bodies like the Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) put their suggested measures like a duty credit scrip, focus on non-trational markets and discouraging cotton yarn exports into place, Indian apparel exports have the potential to one day outshine textile exports.

ASHLAND PRESENTS THE CULTURAL DIMENSION OF PERSONAL CARE AT THE NEW YORK SOCIETY OF COSMETIC CHEMISTS SUPPLIERS’ DAY

T

he inclination of consumers in emerging markets to invest in new products and formats is driving change in the personal care industry. Ashland (NYSE: ASH) is conducting primary research in these markets to predict the types of ingredients and formulations likely to be in demand in the years ahead.

At the New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists Suppliers’ Day exhibition, Edison, New Jersey, preliminary results from Ashland pinpoints what consumers require from modern hair care and styling formulas in countries such as Brazil, South Korea, and Indonesia.

“Surveying consumers in Asia and Latin America, it is increasingly clear that the tendency toward specific hair care practices, and preferences toward actives of local origin, and next-generation ingredients, serve as essential areas of consideration in new product formulations,” said Linda Foltis, vice president care specialties research and development, Ashland. “Our global technical and marketing teams now have a range of qualitative and empirical data that help Ashland tap into consumer thinking and ingredient preferences in particular markets.”

One of the biggest challenges in emerging markets is in the area of delivery. Without an efficient delivery system to deposit natural oils, proteins, amino acids, anti-dandruff and other popular ingredients onto hair strands, the benefits of these ingredients can be limited.

“Bioavailability and actives delivery is a core scientific competency within

Ashland,” Foltis said. “At the Suppliers’ Day Education Session held on May 9th, Joseph Dallal, senior manager hair care technical sales, Ashland, explained how shampoo and conditioning formulas can be designed to deliver ingredients with greater effectiveness and efficiency than formulas without delivery systems.”

David Streuli, principal scientist, Ashland, also presented the fundamentals of aerosol technology development, a traditional delivery system for hair styling and finishing sprays in Japan, Europe, and North America.

Global laboratory network of cultural innovation At Booth 301, Ashland invites attendees to discover how personal care ingredients, incorporated into prototype formulations, are adopted or designed for consumers in a particular geographic area, culture, or market. Technical and market experts can explain how the Ashland global laboratory network provides support for regional market needs in the areas of ingredients, formulations, market claims substantiation and clinical or consumer science studies. These data sets become a part of the Ashland global network and can be leveraged for use in other regions.

One example is Polyelectrolyte Complex Three (PEC3), a highly functional polyelectrolyte complex that delivers the benefits of styling and conditioning on hair. PEC3 is a patent-pending offering based on guar hydroxypropyltrimonium

chloride and acrylates copolymer.

Solutions Destination

“Polyelectrolyte Complex or PEC technology has allowed us to solve challenging consumer benefits, notably in the areas of hair repair and durable heat activated smoothing,” said Allwyn Colaco, senior team leader, Ashland. “The aggregate structure formed provides a synergy that is expressed in a system that conditions while styling, without compromising on either attribute.”

Most recently, Ashland introduced Solutions Destination, a sciencebased platform that consumer product companies may access to acquire novel solutions and to carry them to market to enhance consumers’ lives. Through Solutions Destination, Ashland offers the consumer product industries core scientific competency in the areas of bioavailability, texture/rheology and multi-functionality.

The benefits of PEC3 include smooth comb-through, natural hold, humidity resistance, improved manageability, and shine. Moreover, PEC3 is heat activated with styling tools to produce a strong washresistant film that provides additional benefits of smoothing, anti-frizz, and shine.

At in-cosmetics 2016 in Paris, Ashland won the Bronze Innovation Zone Functional Ingredient Award for Polyelectrolyte Complex Three.

Sustainability in Zeta Fraction™ technology Ashland also invites attendees to discuss Zeta Fraction™ technology, a proprietary platform to capture the biologically active complexes of live plants on a sustainable basis. This novel technology separates intracellular bioactives into various “fractions” while protecting the integrity of molecular architecture that exists in these cells. Ask how Zeta Fraction technology utilizes sustainable processes (in cultivation, production, and return of plant byproducts to the soil) and can add value throughout the supply chain.

The Nail Care Market: Trends & Innovations in 2016

T

he global nail care market continues to grow at an annual rate of 6%, according to Kline.

Agnieszka Saintemarie, Kline's project manager, Consumer Practice, recently shared several key insights in Beauty Packaging’s January/ February feature article, What’s Trending for Nails?

In the story, Saintemarie spoke to Beauty Packaging about nail art fueling the demand for stamps, wraps, tools and accessories.

Now, Kline’s report published in March 2016, Professional Nail Care: Global Market Brief reveals even more insights about several new product innovations and nail categories that are on the rise.

wear formulas are a new category hybrids that combine regular nail polish with gel formulations. These products don’t need to cure with a light source.

The long-wear nail polish category grew in 2015 by triple digits, while sales of gel polish slowed - proving that nail polish users prefer the easeof-use of a hybrid polish over a gel formula that has to be cured, and are also concerned about damaging their nails.

This rise in sales also boosted sales in the professional nail care market overall, according to Kline. CND’s Vinylux, owned by Revlon, pioneered the long-wear category in 2013 - and many other brands followed suit.

Long-Wear Lacquer Beats All New Treatments in Nail Care Brands offer long-wear nail polish for both at-home and professional use.

Typically, the lacquers used and sold in salons are formulated to last for the longest time.

Kline’s report explains that long-

The Nail Treatment category has grown by 7% globally, according to Kline. IBX is one example. “IBX is an innovative nail repair system that has been expanding across all regions and driving sales in the Nail Care

16 | May-June 2016 | Beauty & Fashion World

category,” says Saintemarie.

Innovative Nail Polish Removal Options for Pros Nail polish removal is an area of growing concern for salon professionals and their customers, Kline’s report states, due to the increased use of gel and long wear polish. New removal options range from peel-off base coats to steamers, according to Saintemarie, making the Removal category the most innovative right now, in the entire nail care market.

Brands are creating unique removal techniques that won’t damage nails like the use of acetone or filing often does. “A professional manicurist will warm up an acetone-based removal solution in a steamer. The steam that is created helps to remove gels and acrylics more easily,” Saintemarie explains.

New types of removal products include The Painted Nail’s Steam Off and Gel II’s Steam Gel-Polish Removal System. Saintemarie also

mentions that CND recently launched the Xpress5 Top Coat, which enables CND Shellac to come off in five minutes. Other brands, including Akzentz, Nubar, and Cuccio, have started offering foil wraps for the easy removal of soakoff gels and gel polishes.

The Professional Market Vs. Products for At-Home Use Since there are so many long-wear nail polish options now, including gel kits with lamps designed for athome use, how are professional nail salons competing?

“The professional market is going back to a focus on acrylic nails instead of gels, since the technique cannot easily be replicated at home,” says Saintemarie.

What’s Next?

Kline predicts that new, innovative product launches, as well as competition between professional nail care marketers, will continue to affect the professional nail care market’s growth in the coming years.

Emerging Trends in Premium Nail Market

A

rising middle class will be a key factor behind the global premium nail polish market, which is expected to exceed $2 billion by 2019, growing at a CAGR of over 6%, according to a recent report from Technavio. As outlined in the firm’s latest research, the global premium nail polish market is growing at a healthy yearover-year rate due to changing buying patterns of consumers and the growing presence of nail bars and salons.

“The global middle class population is expected to increase by three billion during the decade beginning in 2010. The rising disposable income among this middle-class population is expected to trigger an increase in the sales of premium nail polish,” says Arushi Thakur, a lead analyst for cosmetics and toiletry research at Technavio. The top four emerging trends influencing the global premium nail polish market according to Technavio’s consumer and retail research analysts are: Nail art polishes: One of the latest trends in the premium nail polish market is the increased popularity of nail art among customers between the ages of 15 and 55. Some of the nail art nail polishes cited by Technavio are L'Oréal’s Nail Art Moon Candy Nail Enamel and Nail Art Sun Candy Nail Enamel. Nails Inc.'s Magnetic Polish is a new launch by the company. The use of 3-D printing is also extending to the nail art segment. Adhesive stickers that cause no damage to the nail or nail

polish are used to apply reusable nails. Increase in demand for natural and organic products: The increasing health and wellness trend across the globe has influenced the premium nail polish industry, and manufacturers are developing natural and organic nail polishes. Changing channel format: Manufacturers are using various channels to market their products, including mobilebased applications. For instance, Nail Art Gallery App has been created to upload and share new nail art photos. There are various start-ups and other small players in the market that are looking to kiosks for their offerings in addition to the traditional retail formats. Companies like Benefit and Sephora have installed interactive digital kiosks and beauty vendors to indulge customers on the go.

Social media and celebrity endorsements: Presence of social media is an effective platform to engage with consumers. In the premium nail polish market, blogging sites such as Nailed Blog offers a key platform for discussion forums on nail polish brands. Some of the successful social media campaigns include, Coty's 'Show Your True Color' for OPI and 'Together' by Estée Lauder.

Technavio says L'Oréal spent over 15% of its media spending on digital and social media in 2014. Some of the top vendors in the global premium nail polish market, according to Technavio are: Chanel, Coty Inc., Estée Lauder, KAO Corporation, L'Oréal, LVMH and Shiseido.

I SUSTAIN BEAUTY: second edition of the Davines and (comfort zone) campaign dedicated to Beauty

F

ounded in Parma in 1983 by the Bollati family, the Davines Group is a globally successful Italian company operating in the professional haircare and skincare sectors. Its in-house research laboratories focus on the development of high quality products that combine innovation and artisan spirit. Beauty and Sustainability interact in perfect harmony throughout every field of its business, and the primary importance of Beauty at Davines and [ comfort zone ] is highlighted by a joint project: the second edition of the I Sustain Beauty campaign.

The company turns to its international community to help it collect projects in the social, artistic and environmental spheres that can contribute to make the world a more beautiful place. Can beauty save the world? It can certainly make it a better place and become an instrument of systematic changed, starting from small gestures and initiatives that bring out the best and most beautiful side in everyone.

During the first edition launched in 2014, contributions arrived from several countries: the USA, Sweden, Australia, Vietnam, Costa Rica, Italy and South Africa.

They were collected on the website www.isustainbeauty.com. Each project was illustrated on the website using images, videos and a short description of the initiative. In doing so they proved that the willpower and dedication of those who believe in this value and support it even outside their own profession can create, protect and promote beauty. They include projects by beauty professionals who go beyond the sphere of their own skills to make tangible contributions of enormous potential, capable of generating a virtuous circle of communication and positive influences. The first edition of the campaign drew to a

close at the end of 2015, and saw the involvement of 22 countries. An internal jury examined the projects, assessing their personal commitment, impact on others and capacity for generating new beauty. It then announced the Peruvian project Without Frontiers of Salvatore Giaquinta as the best project. This project was developed by two Italian hairdressers, father and son living in Peru for years, who offer a training course dedicated to women who live in poverty. In 2013, Salvatore Giaquinta and his son opened a self-financed school in a very poor area of the outskirts of Lima in which theory and practical lessons in cutting and colouring are taught.

This project not only teaches a profession, creating work opportunities; it also lays the foundations for building a better society. Davines awarded this project with a prize consisting of materials and tools, which will enable Salvatore Giaquinta to carry on his training activities.

The second edition of I Sustain Beauty was officially opened on 18 January on the stage of the Los Angeles World Wide Hair Tour, the Davines event dedicated to international hairdressing and it will end in October 2016. To continue inspiring hairdressers and beauticians to sustain this special project, Davines and [comfort zone] have involved three Beauty Sustainers: Mara Galeazzi, ex prima ballerina of the Royal Ballet in London, Belgin Aksoy, Founder of the Global Wellness Day, and Aldo Signoretti, hairstylist of the world of cinema.

They are sustainers coming from different sectors who have created beauty through their work and projects, and have been available to tell their personal vision of Beauty on the websitewww.isustainbeauty.com.

Sales of shampoos increased 18.3%.

Sales of conditioners increased 9.8%.

“The black haircare industry has undergone quite a transformation over the past five years and that should continue heading into the next decade,” said Tonya Roberts, multicultural analyst at Mintel. “As more and more black consumers are embracing their natural self and walking away from relaxers, it is presenting opportunities for natural brands to enter the market. Our research indicates that wearing their natural hair makes black women feel liberated, confident and different from others—giving them a tremendous sense of pride in being black while displaying their natural beauty. The prominence of the market reflects the high price tag of many natural haircare products, but consumers appear willing to pay the price for a natural look.”

In addition, Mintel’s recent research shows: 35% of consumers who wear their natural hair also color their hair at least once per month 20% report having trouble finding haircare products that fit their diverse range of hairstyles 19% have bought multiple products because they can’t find the right one that works for them “To look their best, blacks find it worthwhile to invest their time and money to alter hairstyles—going as far as coloring their hair at home on a monthly basis,” stated Roberts. “This behavior coupled with black consumers’ willingness to purchase the wide range of readily available natural-haircare products that have entered the market in recent years should be a driver for the category’s growth moving forward—as many blacks enjoy shopping for and trying new haircare products.”

Mintel’s research indicates that the weaves, extensions and wigs segment remains popular too. Sixtythree percent of women purchased wigs, weaves, extensions or styling tools from local independent beauty stores in the past six months— averaging a $239 annual spend.

“Black women are spending a tremendous amount on these products annually,” added Roberts, “but they remain essential among a wide range of black haircare consumers as they fulfill the desire to switch up hairstyles while also allowing for a simple, no-fuss, daily beauty-and-grooming routine.”

CLARIANT AWARDED RSPO MASS BALANCE CERTIFICATION FOR ASIA PACIFIC AND EUROPEAN PRODUCTION SITES TANGERANG, INDONESIA & TARRAGONA, SPAIN, COMPLETE EXTERNAL MULTI-SITE RSPO CERTIFICATION ENSURES GREATER AVAILABILITY OF RSPO MASS BALANCE CERTIFIED PALM-BASED INGREDIENTS FOR CUSTOMERS IN PERSONAL AND HOME CARE INDUSTRY

Supports Clariant traceability & zerodeforestation approach

C

lariant, a world leader in specialty chemicals, announces the achievement of Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) Mass Balance (MB) certification for its production sites in Tangerang (Indonesia) and Tarragona (Spain).

With this latest certification, Clariant is now able to offer RSPO MB certified palm-based ingredients to customers in the Personal and Home Care industry from all its relevant facilities in the Asia Pacific (APAC) and European regions.

comments: “The RSPO certification reflects Clariant’s efforts to embed sustainability in its business. Going beyond this, we have committed to address traceability of palm-based ingredients and a zero-deforestation approach in parallel to the on-going RSPO supply chain certification rollout.” Clariant has been a member of the RSPO since 2011. Its commitment to the principles for sustainable production and sourcing of palm based raw materials supports the increasing demand for sustainable ingredients and transparency from consumers of Personal and Home Care products.

Christian Vang, Head of Clariant’s Business Unit Industrial & Consumer Specialties (BU ICS), comments:

“Sustainable sourcing of palm-based ingredients starts with transparency across the supply chain and Clariant is committed to acting responsibly and responding to market needs by enabling traceability of our raw materials.

Achieving RSPO certification will help us to increase the share of RSPO Mass Balance certified palm material available to formulators and brand owners in the Personal and Home Care sector.”

The current certification is just one example of Clariant’s efforts to differentiate through customer oriented solutions. Clariant also recently achieved Halal-certification at its Tangerang site to address the emerging demand for Halal ingredients from customers in Southeast Asia.

By 2020, Clariant intends to achieve a RSPO Segregation supply chain certification for all concerned production sites of the BU ICS and will further support its Joint Venture Global Amines to achieve certification for its production sites.

While Mass Balance allows for mixing of certified and non-certified material along the supply chain, Segregation assures that only certified material has entered the supply chain. With a multi site certification, one main production site in a region is audited randomly, representing all sites in the region.

In total, four plants in APAC, two plants in Europe and Joint Venture Global Amines sites in Gendorf (Germany) and Lianyungang (China) have gained the mass balance certificate.

Clariant is currently working to include North America (NORAM) and Latin America (LATAM) production sites in the scope of its RSPO MB certification – a process it is aiming to complete during the middle of 2016.

Korean Cosmetics: Setting the Pace for Global Beauty

By Joanna Cosgrove South Korea continues to spark new beauty trends that global cosmetics mavens can’t seem to get enough of.

A recent Washington Post article valued the Korean beauty market at $10 billion. Within South Korea, Mintel data pegs the country as one of the fastest growing markets for beauty and personal care markets, achieving nearly 6% growth in one year—which is astounding in comparison to runners up U.S. (3.9%) and UK (2.1%). Euromonitor placed the total value of skin care sales and color cosmetics in South Korea at $6.2 billion in 2014.

Competition for the attention of beauty consumers within the key Asian markets of China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore is fierce. The target market is young women aged 18-29, according to Nielsen Hong Kong, with Korean TV series and KPop culture serving as primary beauty trend drivers.

Jeff Lim, director of customer service for Korea-based packaging supplier, Hana Co., Ltd., says high-definition television and smartphone technologies have pulled back the proverbial curtain on TV actresses, showing their skin and all of its imperfections, thus heightening the demand for flawless skin. “Korean beauty products introduced by Korean dramas, [have gotten] Asian women interested in Korean beauty products,” he says.

With an eye on the skin care segment, Hana’s latest packaging innovation is a dual airless pump for sensitive skin care formulations, such as “booster” creams and dark spot correctors – both integral products in a Korean woman’s multi-step beauty regimen. The company also manufactures a dual airtight compact that can pair a similarly delicate

wrinkle care ampoule and foundation in one compact, portable case.

Hana also recently partnered with Intercos to offer customized packaging development services for cosmetic and personal care clients.

Booming Exports The export of beauty products has become one of South Korea’s most lucrative businesses. A recent article published in the Korean Herald cited data from the Korea International Trade Association (KITA) indicating that South Korean cosmetic exports to China more than tripled in the first seven months of last year, to rank second in the Chinese market, thanks to rising pop culture popularity.

“China imported $378.3 million worth of South Korean cosmetics in the January-July period, up a whopping 250.6 percent from 2014,” the article reported. “The amount accounted for 22.1 percent of China’s total cosmetics imports valued at $1.67 billion during the period, already surpassing last year’s $214.9 million.”

South Korea, which took fourth place in 2014, stood right behind France, the leader in the global beauty market with a 30.6% market share with $512 million sales in China. Japan slipped one notch to third with $265.3 million, and the United States came next with $194 million, KITA said.

Last fall, Bloomberg News cited a report from the Export-Import Bank of Korea that pointed to South Korea’s cosmetic boom as resuscitating the country’s prolonged drop in exports. The phenomenon’s exponential popularity among U.S. consumers was helped by KITA. A nonprofit group, KITA introduces small-to-

42 | May-June 2016 | Beauty & Fashion World

medium-size Korean companies to American retailers and distributors, and also coaches brands on how to package and price products to appeal to U.S. consumers.

Adopting New Influences Increased interest among global beauty consumers in these exotic

imports has led a number of global brands to incorporate distinctly Korean products into their product lineups.

Beauty powerhouses like Chanel, Lancôme and L’Oréal have launched their own cushion compact foundations. Stila took the concept in a unique direction, with the

launch of its Got Inked Cushion Eye Liner. Revlon even got in on the Kpop staple of “just bitten” lips – a gradient look where the middle of the lips are darker than the outer regions of the lips—with the launch of its Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain line.

Curt Altmann, marketing director,

Yonwoo International/PKG, New York, says the Korean beauty influence continues to gain favor with U.S. consumers, not only presenting new brand and product opportunities but also ushering in a shift surrounding the attitudes toward personal care. “Western consumers are really taking notice of the commitment to a skin care

Beauty & Fashion World | May-June 2016 | 43

regimen that Korean women have,” he says. “For many Korean women the nightly skin care routine is not viewed as a chore but something they look forward to.”

Earlier this year, Yonwoo produced a 40ml airless spray tube for Koreabased Benton Cosmetics’ Honest TT Mist, a fine mist moisturizer that contains Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) leaf water instead of water, as well as hyaluronic acid and other beauty ingredients to help improve rough and damaged skin from stress and pollution with moisturizing and cooling effects.

“Four years of intense development have yielded a truly dry, fine, misty spray in a convenient and costeffective packaging form to give marketers a meaningful consumer experience,” says James Ki, president of Yonwoo.

“The fine mist allows Honest TT to be used over makeup,” says Celeste Jo, director of marketing at Benton, “and the airless tube keeps the formula from oxidizing, maintaining the potency of the Tea Tree compounds without chemical preservatives.”

Altmann says beauty marketers who are looking to the Korea phenomenon with interest are responding to the sheer size of the market for such a small population, but he cautions that they shouldn’t overlook the volume of product as well as the speed to market and high product segmentation.

The fact is, he says, there is little or no brand loyalty in the Korean market. “Certainly not as much as in the West,” he says. “In Western marketing we promote a product that is the answer to a problem; in Korea, consumers see not one product as an answer, but a contribution as part of many.”

Michelle Joo, vice president, Elcos America Inc., Englewood Cliffs, NJ, offered a glimpse into three distinctly Korean trends positioned to resonate with global consumers: “Ki-dult” cosmetics, personalized/ customizable product packaging, and packaging that emphasizes

formulation contents.

To be clear, even though products in the Ki-dult realm are emblazoned with images of Wonder Woman and other cute, animated characters, the products are not intended for children.

These are high-quality products with a whimsical edge that particularly appeal to collectors. “The selected designs are well-known and familiar characters from childhood movies and animation,” Joo says. “Ki-dult market trends have…consistent growth of 2-30 percent each year [and the designs] help to bolster the image of the brand.”

Similarly, the packaging for Jungsaemmool’s Star-Cealer Foundation features a push-able bar on the left side of the product next to the concealer. The palette in the middle is skin-toned and customers can mix a custom combination of foundation and concealer to make their skin evenly toned.

The Kim Hwallan Musee Neuf 3D Palette capitalizes on the contouring trend, enabling consumers to mix up to three colors to shade and highlight their complexion.

Korean beauty companies are getting creative with packaging to emphasize their product attributes.

“Newly developed packaging is designed to show…the content of the products so it easily grabs customers’ attention and provides better understanding of products’ contents,” Joo says, pointing to TonyMoly’s Peach Hand Cream, Mango Mild Sunblock and Banana Sleeping Pack and Nature Republic’s California Aloe Vera Hand Cream as standout examples of this trend.

Korean beauty trends have made substantial inroads into the European and U.S. beauty landscapes. Given the continued enthusiasm for Korean products and ingredients, it will be exciting to watch how the Korean aesthetic will continue to influence the global beauty marketplace.

than using multiple products in combination. To ensure that multifunctional body care products are more attractive for these women, brands could focus on the benefits they seek in a product. Mintel research reveals, for example, that over half of these women consider a good moisturizer to be rapidly absorbed into the skin, while two in five agree a good moisturizer is one that leaves a velvety touch on the skin. Communicating these attributes on product packaging could attract these more mature consumers and encourage them to buy.

Mintel research also reveals that women aged 25-34 are more likely to enjoy trying products in different formats, with a quarter agreeing so, compared to 18% of women aged 16-24 and 13% of women aged 35+.

When bringing innovative products to market, brands could also leverage extension lines with new formats in order to appeal to women aged 25-34. One example of this success is Lovemore’s Mint Essence Refreshing Foot Mask, launched in December 2015 in China. In the form of socks, the mask has mint extract and claims to eliminate odors and cool the feet. Another example is Terre d'Oc 1. 2.. 3... Sommeil Fleur de Lavande Bougie de Massage, a candle for body massage launched in France in October 2015, developed to provide harmony for the body and calm the mind.

Stylish Trending for Nails

Brands want to differentiate, while consumers want convenience.

staying loyal to their regular, familiar brand names.”

If recent launches are any indication, 2016 will be filled with new colors, nail art tools and an array of packaging.

Packaging for nail products has to balance form with function, while finding a way for a brand to differentiate. “Marketers are investing more in deco,” observes Shivie Dhillon, president, Bottle Coatings, Inc. “The idea of jumping ‘off the shelf’ has never been more important, and it’s no different in the nail category,” he says.

“The growing popularity and awareness of the long-wear nail polish category, as well as a continued demand for gel polishes are the primary reasons behind the uptick in sales of nail products last year,” explains Agnieszka Saintemarie, project manager, Consumer Practice, Kline & Company.

The analysts at Technavio say these three major drivers will continue to influence the growth of the nail market.

What are brands and marketing asking suppliers for in 2016? “Longer wear and more shine,” says April Vignone, president, product/ packaging development, Verla International. Vignone says that many of its customers are looking for new CND’s team created extravagant nail looks at The Blondes Spring 2016 runway show.

Jim Slowey, vice president of marketing and sales, Baralan USA says that even though the nail market has been contracting slightly in previous years, he’s seeing established brands remain steady in sales—and growth looks promising this year. “Nail Polish has its ups and downs, as with any category,” says Slowey. “But it is our belief that the recent upward spike of the last few years has made polish more of a standard than a fad. Consumers are not shopping randomly—they are

Fashion designers influence nail polish trends—and market performance—by collaborating with makeup artists to promote new nail designs on the runways each season. These looks influence what consumers will find on store shelves the following year. Suppliers pay attention to runway trends to predict the types of packaging that brands will require.

“The rise of long, talon-like nails came into play recently, with models on runways and celebrities on social media,” says Kline’s Saintemarie.

“With the rise of longer fingernails, also came the opportunity to experiment with nail designs, which has been a continuing trend in the nail category in previous years,” she adds. This trend sparked the demand for all types of new nail accessory tools.

Although recent fashion runways have shown tamer looks for nails than in previous years, nail art still has a cult following on social media, and with a dedicated group of consumers. Metallic and ultra-shiny finishes for nails are prevalent, along with 3D effects.

director, CND, says there is a return to shorter nails this year. “Nails will be shaped into short, squared canvases that evoke extraordinary color while articulating exquisite abstract pattern and design,” she explains.

One of CND’s new color collections for Spring 2016 is Spring Art Vandal,

which includes deep vibrant hues such as a grass green called Art Basil, a bright pink, Tutti Frutti, and a rose gold that will coordinate with the iphone 6s, Irreverant Rose.

OPI also has a bold collection for spring 2016, called New Orleans. It includes 12 new shades in both nail lacquer and gel formulations.

“Colors are more vibrant than ever,” says Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, cofounder, OPI. “New Orleans is a place to recharge and revel…we hope we’ve bottled up a little of that special NOLA culture, all while supporting the city’s remarkable renaissance.”

In the mass market, Revlon is

debuting its new 2016 collection; its eight new seasonal shades include Purple Chrome, Hot Pink, and Leopard Sparkle. These have been added to Revlon’s existing range of 72 shades, which all have a “5-free” formula.

Pale pastels and nude shades are always spring essentials, and several

Beauty & Fashion World | May-June 2016 | 53

brands are delivering subtle, skinflattering hues, mixed with a few unconventional ones like mint green.

Zoya’s Whispers Collection for Spring 2016 features a “tranquil palette,” according to the brand.

The semi-sheer formula comes in Cala, a soft nude; Ireland, a muted green; and Lake, a muted blue. The nail lacquer is packaged in Zoya’s signature bottle, which tapers slightly near its thick base. Baralan USA has worked with Zoya on many of their polish packages.

The “nude” manicure is also trending, promoting a bare look for nails. Mineral Fusion is launching new colors in February inspired by skintone hues. “Mineral Fusion also has a few shades that fit well into the new Pantone colors of the year,” says Julia Buttitta, the brand’s PR rep.

CND is toning down its color palette by summer 2016 with the upcoming launch of its Flirtation Collection.

Arnold says it includes “sweet, creamy pastels inspired by modern lace and embroidery.” She continues, “The summer nail is a slim oval, glazed with tender shades of coral and lilac, blushed with the spark of deepening allure.”

step system includes a base, color and topcoat.

Coated Bottles Bottle Coatings’ Dhillon reports a steady to moderate increase in demand for coated bottles to accommodate sensitive gel nail polish formulations. “The gel market is definitely showing signs of maturing, but not disappearing,” he says. “New formulations are keeping the gel lines alive. Regulations have also started to favor the gel market, allowing for longevity,” he adds.

Dhillon says that using a coating in a vivid color can help “brand” a new nail product, and he’s been fielding requests for pinks and neon yellows. “The fear of a specific color not appealing to consumers’ taste levels doesn’t seem to be as much of a consideration anymore for some marketers,” he says.

The types of decorations that Bottle Coatings is working on include vivid “artistic-style” coatings, according to Dhillon. “I cannot speak about the colors of the actual nail polish, but some of the bottles we are producing in small quantities look spectacular—like artwork,” he says.

Consumers Want Long-Wear Polish The demand for gel polish is soaring, worldwide. A recent report

by MarketsandMarkets predicts that global demand for UV nail gel will reach $59.31 million by 2020, with a CAGR of 6.5% from 2015 to 2020.

However, consumers also want convenience. In response, there are more long-wear formula-tions on the market now. These are gel-like nail products that don’t require curing under a light source, last up to 10 days, and can be removed easily.

CND Vinylux “owned” the category, at first, and now competitors include OPI Infinite Shine, China Glaze Ever Glaze, Jessica Cosmetics Phenom, Orly International Epix, Sally Hansen’s Mira-cle Gel and Revlon’s Color Stay Gel Envy. There is also Ulta’s new brand, Whim, which “wears like a gel, removes like a polish,” as its ads promote. The 3-

Not all formulations are the same, however, or require the same type of coating on a bottle.

“We’re seeing new formulations for longer-lasting nail polish, and each has varying degrees of light sensitivity,” says Dave Desai, director of sales, Piramal Glass. “Formulations range from mildly sensitive, which can be protected through traditional spray coating processes, to ultrasensitive, which require a coating that will block light completely,” he explains.

Mineral Fusion markets a gel topcoat in a clear bottle, since it provides a gel-like look without being sensitive to light. Bliss One Gel Swoop gel topcoat comes in a bottle with a blue coating—which may have been chosen for functionality, or aesthetics. Bliss’ topcoat is a longwearing formulation that doesn’t require curing under a light source.

The color of the bottle’s coating is a

54 | May-June 2016 | Beauty & Fashion World

shade that looks like Bliss’ signature blue, which is prominent in its branding and on other product lines.

Butter London Patent-Gel Top & Tails is a base and topcoat set. The brand uses a standard black coating on its topcoat bottle. The cute name attracts attention, and the set continuously gets rave reviews from beauty editors and bloggers, which say it delivers on its promise of longwear and “patent-leather shine.”

Piramal Glass, which is already a leading manufacturer of nail polish bottles, has recently increased its R&D efforts to develop innovative coatings, in response to demand.

“We can now respond to the growing number of requests for coatings that will work with a viriety of different formulations,” Desai says.

As more brands continue to launch nail products with an ingredient list that reads like skin care, the trend may further fuel the need for coated bottles, depending on the formulation.

Verla International’s Vignone says that more brands are developing “healthier” nail products, and are more interested in formulations that provide color as well as additional nail care benefits.

Blis Genius Polish has an ingredient list similar to skin care. The nail polish is formulated with milk thistle extract, soy germ, wheat extract and vitamins A, C and E. Its nail packaging also looks modern, with a clear, doublewall bottle that shows off its highly pigmented, opaque colors. The square bottles are paired with an elegant elongated silver cap.
