😎💯“Consumers no longer want to choose between #sun protection and #skincare, and they demand ethical, sustainable and inclusive products,” says Margaret Sullivan, technical service scientist at Arcaea. “In the United States, limited #UV filters are available to formulate effective sunscreens, making it difficult for brands to satisfy these consumer needs. While the trend toward improving aesthetics and reducing white-cast has led to a rise in the incorporation of #SPF boosting technologies, it is now followed by growing criticism from consumers, questioning the safety profile and misleading ‘mineral-only’ claims of products loaded with additives that are technically chemical filters.” ➡️This month we talk about the latest #suncare trends, including: 🌞#regulations with Sundeep Gill, PharmD, co-founder of Sun Deep Inc. 🌞multi-benefit sun care with Roni Rot, CEO of JOJOBA DESERT, Toussaint Jordan, MS, marketing manager, Solabia USA, Inc. and Applechem - A Solabia Group Company, and Jennifer King, director of marketing, cosmetic ingredients NA, Symrise Cosmetic Ingredients / Symrise AG 🌞consumers' shifting mineral sunscreen preferences with Jeroen van den Bosch, managing director, Uviva Technologies 🌞#SPF boosters with Sue Sender, director of marketing, Micro Powders, Inc. ➡️Get the full trend report here: https://lnkd.in/gfnmnH4V 📷Sydney Sang at Pexels

UPDATE: A flat mass sector and rising competition for prestige beauty dollars are having an impact on Ulta. During an analyst call, Ulta CEO Dave Kimbell noted, "[C]ompetitive intensity in the beauty category remains high. As we have shared previously, the strength of the beauty category, combined with an attractive margin profile, has drawn substantial and diverse competition to the category. Today, there are significantly more places to buy beauty, especially prestige beauty, with more than 1,000 new points of distribution opened in the last three years." Kimbell added, "[W]e often see a short-term impact of new distribution points on an existing nearby store, whether it's a competitor opening or a new Ulta Beauty store. What is unique about the current environment is the scale and pace of change. More than 80% of our stores have been impacted by one or more competitive opening in recent years, with more than half impacted by multiple competitive openings. This significant portion of our store fleet is experiencing a prolonged sales impact."
