In Mintel 's latest global beauty trends report ✨“neuroglow” ✨is predicted as one of the top trends for 2024. This is the idea that mental well-being and physical appearance are very interconnected; thereby creating a new pathway of opportunity for aspiring beauty brands. Basically products which are designed to make you feel good about yourself mentally are most likely going to make you feel happier about your appearance, creating a tangible mind-body beauty connection. This can already be spotted by the number of beauty brands engaging in wellness launch events - such as yoga and Pilates to launch their product. The "feel good" association of these events rubs off on the brand's image and product, leaving customers with "neuroglow". Monari Skin hypothesised the idea for beauty to be viewed as an "active form of wellbeing ™️" in 💛early 2023💛. We couldn't have even known the term "neuroglow" would be coined months later! It was just intuitive, we believe beauty has the potential to have an impact MUCH larger than what it's currently aiming for. Even though it's lovely to know from #mintel that we're technically "on trend" with our idea, it is somewhat validated by a powerhouse agency and we seem to be ahead of the curve we don't think taking care of your everyday well-being should be viewed as a 'passing phase'. We want to live in a reality and future where beauty, inclusion and wellbeing are wholly intertwined. We're now raising our #preseed and working towards intentional product development, with an inclusive wellbeing strategy at its core. ✨ 🧖🏽♀️ So If you or anyone in your network might be interested in joining us in that bright future and on our mission to promote inclusive wellness and wellness equality through beauty please feel free to connect with me to find out more about our raise: Victoria@monariskin.com 📧 ✍🏽 #network #preseed #trends #femaleinvestors #sustainable #thebeautyindependent #recyclable #beauty #preseed #fundraising #angels #investors #inclusive #wellness #healthtech #inclusion #femalefounder #network #femaleinvestors

Selling your business and your services goes beyond scripts and sales tools, it is about how you value yourself and how your customers value your work. Excited to welcome Tatiana Ivanova to our April workshop to help women wellness practitioners shift their sense of self-worth to feel more confident and clearer about what they charge and why. It's essential for the sustainability and the sanity of your businesses to value your work and to understand the value of how it impacts others so you can charge appropriately.

Founder | Advisor | Health & Wellness | Brand Strategist & Business Developer | Serving in Fractional Leadership Roles
This year, I had the pleasure of leading the Women in Fitness Forum at the LA Connected Health & Fitness Conference with the lovely Kate Veronneau. It was an intimate conversation that more brands are beginning to join. We explored the female experience in health and wellness, focusing less on the gender gap and more on understanding and addressing women's unique physiological changes—such as hormonal fluctuations, fertility, and the menstrual cycle in relation to fitness. As a former fitness instructor, women often asked me, "Is it safe to work out during my period?" When I was pregnant for the first time, I faced similar uncertainties about safe exercise routines. It’s an interesting time now, and from the perspective of the brands out there, you should be leveraging this to develop trust at scale with your female audience. Demonstrate that you understand their needs. As women are becoming healthier and more fit, it’s clear they’re starting to ask these questions. So it’s important that the businesses (that call themselves innovative and forward thinking brands) are thinking of how to weave this all into marketing, programming, product choices, and more. So, how should brands approach this? Should they incorporate this understanding at the brand level, especially those specifically catering to women? Should they focus on specific initiatives that meet these needs? Or should they not address it at all? I definitely don’t think brands need to be gender-focused. I do, however, think that we need more people actively discussing these topics s in the wellness industry. And by understanding the unique experiences of individual bodies, we can more effectively help a broader range of people - helping more people live happier and healthier lifestyles! Isn't that the ultimate goal? CC Mark Mullett, Mateo A. Ortega, Dirk Bartlett, Brookelyn Suddell who joined me on a different panel I led titled “Building Digital Communities.” CC Julie Cartwright Lindsay Cook who are doing great things in the female fitness world.

I recently helped a woman’s wellness company assess their branding, and a slight refresh is in order. Some things we learned about what women want from this brand: Keep it simple, positive, and inclusive. Rather than overcoming obstacles, we want to hear about supporting wellbeing. This is a brand that does amazing things for new parents, and its audience has a deep understanding and appreciation of the organization’s work. But they are ready for 2.0 So excited to be on this journey with them. If your brand needs help identifying and communicating to your audience, innovating on new products and services or understanding your competitive advantage, Robbins Insights can help. #brandrefresh #femtech #marketresearch #qualitativeresearch #mentalhealthcare #mentalhealth #strategy #womeninbusiness #womenentrepreneurs #PMADs

Executive Recruiter - Fragrance, Beauty, Fashion, Luxury, CPG, Lifestyle, Nutrition/Wellness, Home - DTC subscription, Retail & Ecommerce
The rise of South Asian beauty brands in the US is a notable trend in the beauty industry. They are gaining popularity for several reasons - 1/ Representation and Inclusivity: South Asian beauty brands cater to a diverse range of skin tones and hair types that are often underrepresented in mainstream beauty products. This inclusivity resonates with consumers who have long struggled to find products that match their specific needs. 2/ Cultural Relevance: These brands often incorporate traditional ingredients and practices from South Asian cultures, which can appeal to consumers looking for products that align with their cultural heritage. 3/ Innovation: South Asian beauty brands often bring unique formulations and product concepts to the market, whether it's Ayurvedic-inspired skincare or haircare products designed for textured hair. 4/ Consumer Awareness: As consumers become more conscious of ingredients and their impact on health and the environment, the brands that emphasize natural, sustainable, or ethical practices gain a competitive edge. Entrepreneurs often face unique challenges while establishing their brands in a foreign market. The need for top-tier talent and an effective recruitment strategy is paramount to their success and we're on a mission to find the brightest sparks in the talent pool who align with their vision. Reach out today if you'd like to hear how our recruiting services can benefit your brand. #BeautyRecruiting #RecruitingForStartups

WGSN Beauty: Key Consumer Trends for 2024 and Beyond Some key consumer insights to watch for in 2024 and beyond related to beauty & wellness are: 1. Scenting for Identity – Fragrance will increasingly be centred around identity, becoming an olfactory storytelling tool to express individual emotions, style, values and culture 2. Plant Milking – As the need for alternative ingredient sourcing drives a revolution in sustainable beauty, plant milking will thrive. This non-destructive, aeroponic cultivation method extracts the active ingredients from the plant’s roots several times a year, maximising yields and minimising land and water use 3. Age-agnostic Beauty – Led by Boomer and Gen X generations, there will be a rejection of outdated anti-ageing narratives, seeing more people refusing to conform to demographic expectations and embracing ageing well over age reversal 4. Hangover Beauty - Stressed-out beauty consumers will prioritise joy and pleasure in their wellness routines and push back against strict regimes that don't factor in fun or take real life into account Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dwJrMceR #beautytrends #consumerinsights #2024 #productinnovation #apac
