Since consumer awareness of the ingestible beauty trend has grown, it has led the nutrition industry to pay more attention to this growing segment.
Retailers such as Nordstrom, Whole Foods and Sephora (with Hum Nutrition), have already picked up the trend.
Did you know that the global beauty supplements market accounted for USD 3.5 Billion in 2016?
It is expected to grow at the rate of 8.6% from 2017 to 2030 (according to the 2021 Industry Research Outlook produced by Goldstein).

THREE BEST PRACTICES TO SUCCEED IN LAUNCHING INGESTIBLE BEAUTY PRODUCTS
Priya Rao, the Executive Editor and Beauty Podcast Host at Glossy, has spotted three best practices from brands which succeeded in launching ingestible beauty products line:

EDUCATE
