Ubuntu
BEAUTYFORWARD® EDITION 5
Translated from Zulu, the word ‘Ubuntu’ means ‘I am because we are.’ It reflects the fundamental human need for togetherness, to feel we are accepted, and part of a community. Whilst demand for togetherness prevails, social restrictions make it more challenging to achieve. Thus, activities instilling a sense of community are valued more highly, linked with a sense of happiness and support. Consumers increasingly focus on commonalities with others, striving to feel senses of unity and belonging. In response, cosmetic brands are providing products that address widespread and relatable needs, with emphasis on togetherness in the ‘New Normal’ and experiences shared by many.
► Formulation take-away: focus on community-wide characteristics of the ‘New Normal’, specifically those linked to togetherness, such as skincare for mask-wearing and at-home hair care
