38. CONCLUSION
 Today Fair & Lovely is the market leader with 53%
market share but in the era of increasing
competition, erosion of market share is more a reality
than mere speculation. With products like Emami’s
Fair & Handsome hitting out unexpectedly, Fair &
Lovely should be proactive and increase points of
difference with the competitors. Moving beyond the
message of fairness as beauty must be the center of its
marketing communication. The recommendations
provided would do just that, extending the core
message of the brand through the product and
communicating by its promotional strategies.

39.  The user of fairness products is more evolved
than before. But the traditional fairness cream is
still has its loyalists amongst the lowest SECs.
South India is the largest market for fairness
cream with a 36% share, North and West have 23%
each and east is at 18%. Whether it is fair or
not, fairness products and their communication
to tempt marketers to try and get as many
consumers as possible.
