Cosmetics and toiletries retailing revenue is expected to edge upwards at a compound annual rate of 5.9% over the five years through 2024-25. Despite intense and increasing competition from department stores, online rivals and even clothing shops like H&M and Primark, beauty shops have fought back by expanding their in-store offerings. Shifting consumer attitudes towards social constructs and a growing emphasis on inclusivity have cast a wider sales net and opened retailers up to a bigger market. As people keep flocking to social media sites to share photos and videos online, sales to the younger generations are on the rise as they seek to keep up with what they see online. Despite the positive news, price competition remains intense in 2024-25 as incomes bite. While Britons are still prioritising self-care and looking for little pick-me-ups while they're forced to cut back on bigger luxuries (also known as the lipstick effect), some people are trading down from well-known fan favourites for cheaper, more generic goods. Alongside eating into sales, inflation has pressured retailers' bottom lines. Shrinkflation and skimpflation tactics are being deployed to avoid drastic price rises. In 2024-25, revenue is forecast to climb by 8.5% to £8.5 billion, while the average profit margin is expected to be 18.8%. Over the five years through 2029-30, revenue is expected to mount at a compound annual rate of 4% to £10.3 billion, while profit is anticipated to edge downwards. Shops are expected to continue to face competitive pressures from department stores and online-only retailers. Still, cosmetic retailers will continue to benefit from favourable long-term demographic and social trends, including an ageing population and growing interest in male skincare. Innovation will likely centre on natural and sustainable products, supporting specialist cosmetics and toiletries sales. Meaningful beauty is set to become a top priority; shoppers' expectations will grow and authenticity in marketing will be key to gaining trust and custom.

Social media platforms are integral to people's lives, offering ways to communicate, create and view content and share information. According to Ofcom, approximately 89% of UK internet users in 2023 used social media apps or sites. Teenagers and young adults are the biggest users, although there is rapid uptake among older age groups. Advertising is the primary revenue source for social media platforms, although subscription-based services are gaining momentum as platforms seek to diversify their incomes. TikTok is the success story of the last few years, becoming the most downloaded app between 2020 and 2022, according to Apptopia. The short-form video platform reported that it averaged revenue growth of over 450% between 2019 and 2022. After Musk's takeover, X, formerly known as Twitter, adjusted its content moderation and allowed previously banned accounts to return. As a result, over 600 advertisers have pulled their ads from the site because of fears their brand may be associated with malcontent. In response to falling ad revenue, X has introduced a subscription-based service which enables users to verify themselves and boosts the number of people who view their tweets. Meta-owned Facebook and Instagram have responded by introducing a similar service. Revenue is expected to grow by 14.3% in 2024-25, constrained by a slowdown in user growth for most major social media platforms. Over the five years through 2024-25, revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 32.8% to reach £9.8 billion. Looking forward, regulations relating to how data is collected, stored, and shared will force advertisers and platforms to rethink how they can target their desired demographics. The rising prominence of AI will require the introduction of adequate regulations. The Online Safety Bill sets out new guidelines for social media platforms to abide by, with hefty fines in store for those who do not. Operating costs will swell as platforms look to meet consumers’ expectations, weighing on profit. Over the five years through 2029-30, social media platforms' revenue is projected to climb at an estimated 9.4% to reach £15.4 billion.

Google’s market share saw a decline in the summer of 2018, plummeting to an all-time-low in July. The search engine experienced a similar dip in June and July 2017. These two low points coincided with the European Commission’s antitrust charges against the company, both of which were unprecedented in the now decade-long duel between both parties.
