The rising demand for vegan and natural beauty products in India is driven by growing consumer awareness and preference for healthier and environmentally friendly options. This is driving innovation in nail polish formulas.
In January 2022, Colorbar, a beauty brand in India, expanded its focus on vegan and natural beauty by launching a new line of Vegan Nail Lacquer featuring 128 shades. The product was marketed as featuring a patented 20 Free Formula that is non-toxic.
It also boasts a double patented design infused with biotin and calcium, offering a natural and environmentally friendly makeup option. The e-commerce boom in India has facilitated easy access to a wide range of beauty and cosmetic products, including nail polishes.
In December 2019, Kay Beauty, Bollywood celebrity Katrina Kaif's beauty brand, expanded its product range by launching its first collection of nail products in collaboration with Nykaa, a leading e-commerce company in India. The collection, called "Nail Nourish Laquer," included 36 shades and featured ingredients such as lemon peel water and avocado oil, designed for fast-drying. The shades included a range of nudes and pastel hues as well as darker options. Growing product diversification to meet consumer demands for nail care products in India will continue to drive the nail polish market in the country.
