One country that stands out in the vast landscape of European cosmetics is Germany. In 2021, cosmetics consumption in Germany was the greatest among other European countries. A detailed look at the favorite personal care products among Germans revealed that consumers had a penchant for homegrown products such as the Hamburg-based Nivea.

Within the European cosmetics market, Germany consumed the largest amount of cosmetics in 2021, valued at approximately 14 billion euros. This was followed by France and Italy, at approximately 12 billion euros and 11 billion euros, respectively.

Cosmetics industry in Europe

The cosmetics and personal industry has been thriving in Europe as more consumers become increasingly aware of the importance of health, wellness and personal care products. Skin care continues to be the dominant force in the cosmetics industry in Europe, capturing more than 27 percent of the European cosmetics market in 2019. In the following year, France had the highest number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialized in the manufacturing of cosmetic products in Europe. Compared to Italy’s 735 cosmetics SMEs, France had around 840.

Cosmetics brands

L’Oréal, Nivea and Guerlain are currently the top three leading cosmetic brands in Europe in terms of brand value. Beyond Europe, the cosmetics brands were also garnering worldwide consumer appeal. For example, the skin and body care brand Nivea, manufactured by Hamburg-based German company Beiersdorf had a worldwide brand value exceeding six billion U.S. dollars in 2021. However, with the rise of social media and its significant influence on consumer groups, particularly in the areas of body image and personal care, cosmetics brands that enjoy powerful social media presence and appeal will be those that succeed in the long-term. As of March 2022, the beauty brand with the highest number of Instagram followers is Kylie Cosmetics, garnering approximately 25 million followers.

Market Dynamics of Cosmeceuticals Market

Key Drivers for Cosmeceuticals Market

Increase in Skin Disorders to Boost Market Growth

Skin disorders like acne, eczema, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide, driven by factors such as pollution, stress, hormonal fluctuations, and unhealthy lifestyles. This rise has resulted in a growing demand for treatments that not only alleviate symptoms but also improve skin appearance. In 2022, an estimated 223 million people were living with atopic dermatitis (GBD 2022), including around 43 million children aged 1-4. Overall, skin conditions are estimated to impact 1.8 billion individuals globally. As these issues increase, more people are seeking advice from dermatologists and skincare specialists, who frequently recommend cosmeceutical products. These products, formulated with active ingredients that provide therapeutic benefits, are particularly appealing to those seeking non-prescription solutions for managing chronic skin conditions.

Rapid surge in the aging population to Drive Market Growth

The global population is aging, particularly in regions like Europe, North America, and East Asia. Older consumers typically have more disposable income and are more inclined to invest in anti-aging products. By 2030, 1 in 6 people worldwide will be 60 years or older, with this age group increasing from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion. By 2050, the population aged 60 and above will double to 2.1 billion, while the number of people aged 80 or older will triple to 426 million. Additionally, by 2050, two-thirds of those over 60 will reside in low- and middle-income countries. This aging demographic is a major driver for the cosmeceuticals market, particularly for products designed to reduce wrinkles, sagging skin, and age spots.

Restraint Factor for the Cosmeceuticals Market

High Product Costs Will Limit Market Growth

Cosmeceutical products are often priced higher than regular cosmetics due to the inclusion of active ingredients that offer therapeutic benefits. These ingredients, combined with research and development costs, result in premium pricing. For many consumers, especially in developing regions, the high cost of these products can be a significant barrier to purchase. In price-sensitive markets such as parts of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, the cost of cosmeceuticals can restrict their widespread adoption. Consumers in these regions may opt for more affordable, non-cosmeceutical alternatives, hindering market growth. Instances of cosmeceutical product recalls due to contamination, side effects, or substandard ingredients can damage the market reputation and consumer trust, leading to hesitation in trying new products.

Impact of Covid-19 on the Cosmeceuticals Market

With lockdowns and restrictions in place, many manufacturing units faced disruptions. This led to a temporary shortage of raw materials, packaging, and finished products, causing delays in product launches and the overall availability of cosmeceuticals. As consumers became more health-conscious during the pandemic, there was a rising demand for skincare products that promote overa...
