From sexual wellness products to tween skincare, to from natural fragrances and jewellery to expand your retail shelves, these emerging categories are not only shaping the market but also redefining what beauty means in today's world.
1. Sexual Wellness Products: Breaking Taboos with Ms. Morning
One of the most significant shifts in the beauty and wellness industry is the growing acceptance and integration of sexual wellness products. Brands like Ms. Morning are leading the charge, offering a range of products designed to empower individuals to take control of their sexual health and well-being. What sets these products apart is their focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and inclusive space for all consumers, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. From intimate care to pleasure-enhancing products, the emphasis is on self-care and breaking down stigmas associated with sexual wellness. As these products gain mainstream acceptance, they are poised to become a staple in the wellness routines of our clients.
2. Tween Skincare: Nurturing Young Skin with Petite Skin Co.
Another trend making waves is the rise of tween skincare, with brands like Petite Skin Co. at the forefront. Recognising the unique needs of younger clients skin, these products are specially formulated to be gentle yet effective. The focus is on instilling good skincare habits early (as I’m sure you already preach!), with products that address common concerns such as sensitivity and acne without being too harsh. Petite Skin Co. exemplifies this approach with its range of cleansers, moisturisers, and sunscreens designed specifically for tweens. As parents and young clients alike become more aware of the importance of skincare, this segment is expected to grow rapidly, paving the way for more age-appropriate products.
3. Jewellery as Self-Expression: A Fusion of Beauty and Personal Style
Jewellery has always been a form of self-expression, but at Beauty Expo Australia, it became clear that it is increasingly being viewed as an integral part of one's beauty routine, or if not, at least something to add to your retail offering. This trend sees jewellery not just as an accessory but as a statement piece that complements and enhances one's personal style. From delicate chains to bold, statement pieces, the jewellery on display was all about personalisation and making a unique statement. Whether it's layering necklaces or stacking rings, clients are looking for permission to spend, making jewelry a potential new key retail element of the beauty industry.
4. Natural Fragrance: A Return to Authenticity with Vanessa Mangan
In the world of fragrance, there is a noticeable shift towards natural, clean scents, as evidenced by the offerings from Vanessa Mangan. This trend is part of a larger movement towards sustainability and corneotherapy in beauty products. Clients are increasingly seeking fragrances that are not only pleasant to wear but also align with their values of health and environmental consciousness. Vanessa Mangan’s collection of natural fragrances embodies this trend, offering scents that are free from synthetic chemicals and made from sustainably sourced ingredients. The result is a line of products that are not only beautiful to wear but also resonate with the growing desire for transparency and purity in beauty.

From the normalisation of sexual wellness products and the rise of tween skincare to the growing importance of jewelry in personal expression and the shift towards natural fragrances, these trends highlight a move towards inclusivity, authenticity, and individuality.
