Nail Care Sales Grew by 26% in USA in Q1-2 2012, According to Packaged Facts

16 Jul 2012 • by Natalie Aster

The mass nail care market has grown by leaps and bounds since 2009, dwarfing the relatively sleepy growth rates in other cosmetics categories. The explosive growth in mass-market sales of nail care products continued into 2012, as nail care sales grew 26% for the 52 weeks ending April 15, 2012.

“Nail Care Market in the U.S.: Retail Products and Professional Services” by Packaged Facts probes deeply into the trends driving the growth in nail care product sales. These include a nailcentric fashion culture that has transformed women’s nails into fashion accessories, a continuing flood of innovative, fashion-forward nail care products that empower women to imitate nail salon effects in their own home in a cost-effective way, and a growing population of women who make frequent use of DIY nail care products. The report also includes a surprising take on how the growing number of women who spend heavily on professional nail care services will help drive the continuing growth in sales of DIY nail care products.

The report also draws on the Fall 2011 Simmons Experian National Consumer Study (NCS). Experian Simmons conducts telephone and booklet-based surveys of a large and random sample of consumers who in aggregate represent a statistically accurate cross-section of the U.S. population. Each Experian Simmons NCS survey release involves a sample of approximately 25,000 respondents. The report is also based upon data collected from a wide range of industry sources, including company websites, trade publications, business newspapers and magazines; consumer blogs; and annual reports, 10Ks and other releases from public companies.
