Elton Morimitsu, senior research analyst at Euromonitor, comments, “Men’s grooming has presented sustained growth in Latin America, positioned as the second fastest growing segment between 2011 and 2016. Holding a ‘men's zone’ in stores has shown to be a successful strategy as it provides men a place to go for all their beauty needs. Previously, men had to sort through shelves full of products targeting women in order to find products tailored to them.”
According to the report, while men’s grooming sales are still highly dominated by the most traditional categories, such as fragrances, deodorants, and shaving products, which together accounts for 96 percent of total men’s grooming sales, Latin American men are slowly increasing their consumption of esthetics products.
“The regional challenge lies on breaking stereotypes. Skin care, for example, is still very much associated with femininity. For this reason, men’s skin care launches are now exploring claims that focus on the product’s features, such as sunscreen or post shave. The objective is to gradually get men to experiment with multifunctional products as a first step to explore their vanity,” concludes Morimitsu.
