"Our Derma Market Report highlights the crucial role social media now plays in the development of the skincare category, with the “Looksmaxxing” trend driving consumer demand and online comments & feedback influencing product formulation and positioning. The strong focus on beauty helped derma to record the fastest growth (+2.5%) in the US CHC bricks & mortar retail market in MAT Q2 2026, although its relatively modest increase highlights the depressed environment in this channel overall. Innovations such as the upcoming launch of Alcon’s Brytly Redness Reliever (see Innovation Round-up) are more essential than ever if our industry is to get back on track."
