Abstract
Natural and/or organic personal care sales have rocketed to $4.3 billion, and may reach $6.6 billion in 2010 -- a jump of more than 50%. Led by Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers, Americans are craving safer, non-chemical-based toothpastes, deodorants, anti-aging preps, shampoo, makeup, etc. As a result, this market has broken out from the burgeoning health food/HBC channel, and is exploding in mass retail (supermarkets, chain drugstores, mass merchandisers). Think of it: Natural/organic personal care items available everywhere in mainstream stores, even while the "alternative" health food/HBC channel builds to become a kind of second mainstream; this dream is already becoming reality.
