China's beauty and cosmetics industry is confident that a continued presence in emerging markets will boost export growth in the coming year. Suppliers estimate that sales will rise more than 20 percent over the next 12 months.
Recent customs data indicate that companies are on their way to meeting this goal. The country's income from makeup and skin care preparations in 1H10 increased 22 percent to $358 million. Overseas revenue in the brushes, applicators and nail care tools line from January to May climbed 34 percent to $55.4 million.
Escalating ingredient and labor costs are threatening viability. The former is due to stricter safety standards. The lack of migrant workers pushes up employee expenditure. The removal of the yuan's peg to the dollar is another concern.
This report covers makeup for the face, lips and eyes, brushes and tools for application, skin and nail care products, cosmetic bags and cases, and facial appliances.
