- When it comes to distribution channels, supermarket/hypermarket dominated in 2017; the segment is expected to maintain that lead during the forecast period, due in part to convenience (showcasing multiple brands) and offers and discounts
“Rising consciousness among people regarding beauty products is boosting the usage of lipsticks across Europe,” said Karan Chechi, research director with TechSci Research. “Moreover, people are showing increasing inclination towards natural cosmetics instead of chemical laden conventional cosmetics, which is pushing manufacturers to come up with natural cosmetics including lipsticks. This factor is anticipated to positively influence Europe lipstick market over the course of next five years.”
