A holistic approach to beauty has proven to be much more than a fad over the past few years. In fact, research from the Global Wellness Research Institute says the global health and wellness industry is growing at an historic rate, nearly twice as fast as the global economy.
In 2020, GlobalData also highlighted wellness as one of its most important trends to watch in 2020. Its COVID-19 Recovery Survey Tracker showed 40% of customers remained extremely or quite concerned about their physical fitness and health and 40% were concerned about their mental wellbeing due to the pandemic. 37% were seeking tips on personal health and wellbeing from brands – greater than demands for updates on latest product trends, launches or initiatives.
Top growth categories include personal care, beauty and anti-ageing products, to all areas of healthy eating, nutrition, and weight loss. Additionally, it comes as no surprise that consumers are embracing the zen of fitness and mind-body.
