Key Highlights
Anti-aging plays a key role in driving this trend forward, particularly as consumers become aware of the impact of environmental aggressors beyond UV exposure. This therefore creates important opportunities to differentiate products from generic "anti-aging" claims and towards more targeted and granular solutions to preventable aging.

"Natural" ingredients are an important feature of anti-pollution innovation as brands counter the negative effects of chemical pollutants with "naturally" sourced and familiar ingredients. This is also creating opportunities to invest in new plant-based and botanical actives to offer proprietary anti-pollution formulations.
