What you need to know

The bodycare and deodorant market continues to experience slow, yet steady sales growth, reaching $6.5 billion in total 2019 retail sales, an increase of 3.4% from 2018. Incorporating added benefits or unique formats typically found in facial skincare into bodycare can help brands boost engagement and sales. Deodorant brands that focus on scent, convenience and natural ingredients will continue to see success.
