Water scarcity is an increasingly serious issue. It is estimated that by 2025 two-thirds of the world’s population will lack access to sufficient water resources. The value of water is changing how young, sensible and environmentally-conscious consumers shop. They love nature and strive to protect it.
The beauty sector will need to find new ways to formulate products without water and help people use less of it. So, more and more companies design products that are neither formulated with water nor require its use. Trends are, for instance, Dry Shampoo or new skin care products with oral essences.
