Moroccan consumers, men and women alike, want answers to <strong>hair loss<\/strong>, <strong>dryness<\/strong> and maintenance concerns. Shampoos, masks, repairing oils and now treatments targeting the <strong>scalp<\/strong> (\u201cscalp care\u201d) lead the best sellers. Argan and ghassoul are recurring actives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cp-card is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Dermocosmetics and science-backed actives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the trend reshaping the top of the market. Consumers no longer want just \u201cnatural\u201d: they demand products that are <strong>safe, clean and scientifically proven<\/strong>, known as \u201cclean-clinical beauty\u201d. In practice, this drives demand for care built around recognized actives: <strong>niacinamide<\/strong>, <strong>hyaluronic acid<\/strong>, <strong>biomimetic peptides<\/strong>, gentle exfoliants and targeted serums. Parapharmacies have become the natural home of this category.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cp-card is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Traditional cosmetics: ghassoul, black soap, rose water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traditional oriental cosmetics keep strong demand across generations. <strong>Ghassoul<\/strong> (rhassoul), a purifying clay, and <strong>black soap<\/strong> remain the pillars of the hammam ritual. <strong>Rose water<\/strong>, orange blossom, <strong>prickly pear<\/strong> seed oil and <strong>black seed<\/strong> complete a traditional range prized for its authenticity and affordable prices. These ingredients are also in high demand internationally in bulk. Spas, riads and hotels increasingly offer them under their own brand, in treatment rooms and in their shops: see our <a href=\"https:\/\/carmelcosmeticslabs.com\/en\/cosmetics-lab-marrakech\/\">cosmetics laboratory for riads, spas and hotels in Marrakech<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cp-card is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Long-wear makeup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Driven by TikTok and Instagram, <strong>makeup<\/strong> is growing steadily. The Moroccan specificity: a clear preference for <strong>long-wear<\/strong> formulas that stand up to the heat, and more and more products with built-in sun protection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cp-card is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Hygiene and body care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Less visible but fast-moving, the <strong>hygiene and body care<\/strong> segment (shower gels, deodorants, body lotions) represents considerable volume, driven by high purchase frequency and very wide supermarket distribution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ou-acheter\">Where do Moroccans buy their cosmetics?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Distribution today is split across four complementary channels:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>E-commerce<\/strong>: the most dynamic channel.
