Skin CareRetail Visibility Report*November 7,2020 December 21,2020Cerave and Cetaphil are growingtogether and this growth could soonaccelerateCerave and Cetaphil are the two brands in the Skin Care category with the strongest positive correlation intheir week-to-week performance.The overall visibility for these two brands is also sloping upwards.Cerave&Cetaphil The brands have a similar creative look-and-feeland jointly create an impactful white brand blockwith strong contrast against their respectivegreen and blue logos In many cases,the white brand block is built upeven further by brands like Spectro,Eucerin,and private label as well as a longer tail ofsmaller brands like Gold Bond,Nizoral andBenzagel that use white to reinforce their brandpositioning as clinical products*Photo taken at Jean Coutu on 1116 Mountain Road in Moncton,NewBrunswick on December 19,2020Here are some examples of Cerave and Cetaphil adjacent to one another in the mainsection of the Skin Care category across 6 different retailers this monthCetaphil and Cerave also share similar display strategies,concentrating investment with Walmart,Rexall,and RCSS.There is an opportunity for both brands to grow their display presence at other major retailers.Examples of Cetaphil displaysCetaphil is reaching the tipping point of fly-wheeling from a challenger brand to a top competitor The chart below shows each brands share of display vs.their share of the main section.It reveals the critical mass(marked by the redline)that a brand in the Skin Care category needs to achieve in the main section before retailers start providing that brand with materialout-of-section display support.Cetaphil seems to be nearing the cusp.If the brand continues to gain visibility in the main section,we can expect to see more retailersupport for its promotional displays,driving accelerated growth and propelling the brand closer to brands like Garnier,Biore,and Nivea.Given the strong positive correlation Cetaphil has with Cerave,the latter would likely also benefit from faster growth in this scenario.The future will largely be shaped by near-term category management recommendations and the extent to which they favour Cetaphil vs.the categorys major players or other smaller brands in the category.Cetaphils growth is having a negative effect on Neutrogenas share of category visibility while Aveenoseems be less impacted by the brand.One reason this might be happening is that private label utilizes a checkerboarding strategy with Aveenowhich has the effect of increasing the Aveeno brand block,potentially shielding it from the white blockjointly created by Eucerin,Cetaphil,and Cerave.Some examples of Aveeno and private label adjacent to one another in the main section ofthe Skin Care category across 6 different retailers this monthHowever,competing with private label has the disadvantage of sometimes experiencing confrontationalcompetitive activity.In the last 6 weeks,private label was more aggressive in targeting Aveeno acrossmajor Drug retailers vs.the Grocery and Mass channels.Additional InsightsCostco was the only retailer to providematerial support for Elizabeth ArdenExample of

displays,marketers mightwant to consider placing their logo near theface like Aveeno or having strong contrastlike Kirkland so that the initial attention fromthe face haloes back to the brand.LOreals Walmart displaywas effective at capturingcompetitive shopperattention This month,we noticed an effective tactic byLOreal at Walmart where the brand included afront-facing model along the side of a display.This had the effect of redirecting shopper attentionaway from the competition on the other side of the4-way display due to the prominence of the face inthe creative.Brands might also want to employ this strategy toattract shoppers that are browsing adjacent aislesto an endcap display.Aveeno and Olay are market leadersbut still have strong growth potential bypatching execution gapsAveeno
