What is the Nutrient Cleanse trend?
Nutrient Cleanse: As Korean beauty trends continue to enter the mainstream North American market, consumers are looking out for ingredients and formulas that hail from the East Asian territory. The benefits of additives such as seaweed extend far beyond diet, providing skin with essential vitamins, nutrients and hydration from direct skin-to-skin contact. This progression speaks not only to the influence of Asian beauty trends, but a newfound emphasis on "feeding" the skin in addition to purifying it. As self-care becomes paramount, consumers become more experimental with their purchasing decisions.
