The launch of new “Manotox” cream capitalises on a growing trend for male grooming, skincare and anti-ageing treatments.
The new cream claims to reduce lines and wrinkles without surgery or needles in a daily application at home. While male skincare products have been around for a few years, this product is the first ‘botox in a jar’ type product dedicated to men.
This highlights the amount of care men are now taking over their appearances.
The male grooming sector is valued at £6.2 billion per annum and growing fast. According to research, 25% of men now have beauty treatments at least once a fortnight (e.g. facial, waxing, massage, manicure) and men take up to an hour to get ready, rivalling the amount of time spent by women.
The trend extends to non-surgical treatments such as injectables and laser treatment.
While data in the UK is lacking, we generally follow the trends from the USA. Latest statistics from the ASAPS (American Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) show a 24% increase in the number of non-surgical cosmetic procedures had by men from 2012 vs 2011 and a 26% increase in cosmetic injectable treatments (i.e. botox, fillers).
While a cream can not realistically rival the impact of injectable treatments, there are 2 things to remember:
- good daily skin-care is as important for men as it is for women
- men are just as able to benefit from cosmetic treatments
