Since 1996, the prestige beauty industry has relied on our data, industry expertise, and prescriptive analytics to address the emerging trends, needs, and behaviors of the next generation of beauty consumers, both online and at brick-and-mortar stores. We monitor prestige beauty industry trends across North America and Europe—from the big picture down to the category, geographic region, and store levels. We can even help you identify previously undiscovered opportunities and evaluate pricing strategies.
