WomenFoundation850x425

Natural ingredients in cosmetic products are becoming more mainstream with each passing day. Denver-based market research company, GutCheck, recently examined the natural trend with the hopes of better understanding how consumers view these products, specifically foundation. 

The company compiled its findings into a report titled, "Natural and Premium Foundation: Agile Attitudes & Usage Study." The report takes a closer look at how women define the terms "natural" and "premium" when it comes to foundation to better ascertain the top differentiators of natural foundations.

Key Findings in the Report

  • Over 50% of consumers buy foundation because it feels lightweight, is easy to apply and is the right color for their skin
  • 52% define premium foundation as making their skin look flawless
  • 45% define natural foundation as using organic ingredients and being eco-friendly
  • 26% buy foundation because it is from a natural brand (this is not one of the biggest reasons women choose natural foundation) 
  • 25% of consumers whose favorite foundation is from a natural brand said they don't care about buying foundation from natural brands
