How Has the NZ Beauty Industry Changed Over the Last 10 Years

The New Zealand beauty industry has taken some interesting turns over the last ten years, with trends coming and going. Of course beauty trends come and go, but a few of them seem to have taken root and changed the sector forever. Read on to learn more about the changes that have taken place in the NZ beauty industry in the past decade.

The Main Trends In The NZ Beauty Industry Over The Last Ten Years

Technology And Diagnostics

The use of state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and technologies, particularly in the NZ skin care, has experienced tremendous growth in the last ten years. From cutting-edge skin care devices and gadgets to diagnostic tools and tests, technological innovations have shaken up the beauty industry and are expected to take firm hold of this highly competitive sector.

Niche Skin Care Trends Have Become The New Mainstream

Where they once lurked in niches, smaller products areas, specifically those within skincare such as face masks and specialised treatments like oils have gained strong presence in the last ten years. Sales in these segments have ballooned during this period while leading brands have introduced a vast range of products thanks to increased demand and innovation. With consumers embracing face masks and facial oils, brands specialising in these products are expected to expand at a remarkable rate.

The Influence Of Asia On NZ Beauty Industry

Asian technology, specifically Korean skincare, has had a huge influence on the cosmetics industry in New Zealand and across the globe. Consumers in Asia aim for a flawless, ageless, porcelain skin and, therefore, have to use multi-step routines involving an array of products.

These consumers also consider hydration to be a key benefit in beauty products. Our beauty industry has taken up these trends, and we now have a range of products, concepts, formats and benefits that imitate those in the Asian market. These include organic skincare NZ products that focus on hydration as well as natural makeup NZ formulations that include ingredients like essence and emulsion.

The Rise Of Organic, Cruelty Free Cosmetics NZ Demands By Consumers

The popularity of natural makeup NZ regimens and organic cosmetics NZ products have been on the rise for over ten years now, with many consumers actively avoiding the potentially harmful synthetic options. What’s more, as consumers become more concerned and aware of animal welfare issues, demand for cruelty-free cosmetics has gone up. In fact, like natural and organic skincare NZ products, cruelty-free cosmetics and personal care formulas have become solidly mainstream.

Natural Remedies for Skin Conditions

To get flawless smooth skin you do not have to resort to dangerous chemicals and drugs. More often than not, they will only help you for a short time and then leave your skin in a worse condition. There are plenty of natural substances that can do your skin a lot of good. From dry skin to acne, here are some of the best natural skin remedies.

1. Lemon

What to use it for: skin clearing and cleaning, natural skin lightening, enriching skin, scar clearing 

Lemon is hands down one of the most popular kitchen skincare ingredients. It contains plenty of citric acid that can be used to clear up dead skin cells and germs from the skin, leaving it clear and bright. In addition, it is rich in Vitamin C, a skin-enriching vitamin. Specifically, vitamin C helps skin cells renew faster, thus helping to get rid of scars and generally make your skin smoother and softer.

2. Milk

What to use it for: dry skin, itchy skin, acne, exfoliating 

Another popular go-to kitchen product for better skin. The lactic acid found in milk has immense benefits for the skin. It works in the same way as citric acid to clear the skin. Lactic acid can also help make your skin smoother by peeling back damaged and aged layers. This is one reason why you should include milk in your homemade exfoliation recipe.

Milk itself is a well known skin moisturiser. If you have dry skin, use milk regularly in your face masks to keep your skin hydrated. A milk bath will benefit the skin all over your body, not just on your face. Another major benefit of milk is its anti-inflammatory characteristics. This makes it perfect for treating acne and itchy skin.

3. Essential oils

What to use them for: Almost everything 

Essential oils are some of the best products you can use on your skin. From eucalyptus oil to geranium and lavender, essential oils can solve just about any skin problem. Lavender oil leaves you smelling wonderful. It also helps in skin cell renewal. Myrrh is great for its anti-inflammatory nature. It helps heal skin damage and deals with issues such as sunburns and fine wrinkles. Rose oil is perfect for dry and aging skin. It will leave your skin feeling soft, supple and young.

4. Honey

What to use it for: Moisturizing 

Honey is one of the best natural skin moisturizers you can find. When you apply honey on your skin, the water content in it seeps into your skin, making it soft and supple. As a bonus, honey is antimicrobial, providing your skin with an extra line of protection from germs.
