WHAT DO CONSUMERS VALUE TODAY?
Most important consumer concerns for the personal care market revolve around sustainability, with varying emphasis dependent upon the market segment. If we talk about hair care applications, e.g. biodegradability is becoming a “must have” based on Mintel comprehensive research. Another key trend from consumers is the demand for alternatives to commonly used products that are considered to harm our environment, e.g. like microplastics. Therefore, to protect our valuable resources, e.g. earth surface and water, all of us are asked to look for more sustainable solutions compared to at present used products. This motivation unites researchers and formulators with conscious consumers.
