SALES OF SKIN CARE AND MAKEUP WITH SPF HEAT UP

摘要

The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) recommends sunscreens that offer not only broad-spectrum protection and water resistance, but also Sun Protector Factor (SPF) of 30 or higher—and it appears consumers are seeking that protection in their makeup and skin care products, too. According to global information company The NPD Group, sales of prestige skin care and makeup products with any SPF reached $1.4 billion in the 12 months ending May 2016 (fune'15-May'16), growing 7% during the past two years. Coinciding with the AAD's guidelines, products with an SPF of 30 or higher are growing more than two times faster than the total SPF market.
