Cosmetics Market Research Reports & Industry Analysis

The cosmetics companies manufacture personal care products using natural, herbal and chemical materials purchased from suppliers. These raw materials are tested in plants and laboratories to develop formulas for substances that enhance personal beauty. These formulas, generally patented, are used in the mass production of cosmetics products.

Most cosmetics companies rely on a multi­level distribution strategy, which includes placing products with department stores, specialty retailers, pharmacies, salons, spas, freestanding stores, travel retail outlets, websites and mobile applications. However, some companies, like Avon Products, Inc. (AVP) and Mary Kay, use a door­-to­-door selling method to directly reach customers.

The cosmetic industry is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. Cosmetic products can enhance, reduce and hide blemishes as well. Some cosmetics are false eyelashes, eye shadow, concealer, nail polish, eye liner, mascara, lipstick and moisturizers.
