According to a recent Fact.MR analysis, the worldwide cosmetic chemicals market is expected to exceed US$ 39 Billion by 2032, rising at a CAGR of 6%. Growth is largely driven by a thriving global cosmetics business, as consumers increase their expenditure on personal care items in response to rising disposable incomes.
Previously, sales of cosmetic chemicals rose at a CAGR of slightly less than 5%, reaching a valuation of over US$ 21 Billion by 2021. In 2020, the market will have topped US$ 21 billion; however, COVID-19-induced slump hindered hopes in the first half of the preceding fiscal year. Massive shop closings reduced cosmetic product sales, causing a disruption in the availability of cosmetic ingredients for future manufacturing.
The high usage of organic cosmetics is projected to have a significant impact on future sales prospects. As consumer concerns about sustainability grow, they are intentionally shifting away from inorganic cosmetic items in favor of natural alternatives. Growth is particularly noticeable in the skincare and hair care product segments, with major cosmetic companies attempting to provide 100% organic goods.
