The historical growth can be attributed to several pivotal elements.

The cosmetic ingredients market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $40.81 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The anticipated growth in the upcoming period is set to stem from the momentum of the clean beauty movement, the incorporation of regenerative and healing elements into products, the increasing desire for microbiome-friendly components, the emergence of digital beauty solutions, and formulations driven by technology. Notable trends expected in this period include the utilization of upcycled ingredients, the introduction of personalized skincare kits, the integration of bioactive peptides, the use of barrier repair elements, and the inclusion of CBD and hemp-derived ingredients.
The growth of the cosmetic ingredients market is expected to be propelled by the increasing demand for personal care products. Personal care products, which encompass a broad spectrum of items designed for maintaining personal hygiene, enhancing beauty, and cleanliness, are integral to daily routines. Cosmetic ingredients play a crucial role in these products, contributing to their efficacy, sensory appeal, and overall performance. This symbiotic relationship between personal care products and cosmetic ingredients is evident in the market's trajectory. For instance, in February 2021, Loreal Cosmetic World reported a surge in demand for personal care products, particularly skincare, with a notable increase from over 228 billion euros ($243.4 billion) in 2021 to 8% in 2021 and a substantial 41.8% in 2022. Additionally, the beauty sector experienced a rise in e-commerce from 22.8% in 2020 to 24.5% in 2021. This trend underscores the significant impact of personal care product demand on propelling the cosmetic ingredients market.
A key driver for the cosmetic ingredients market is the increasing use of cosmetics. Cosmetics, encompassing products applied to the body, face, hair, or nails for aesthetic purposes, are widely embraced for enhancing or altering appearance. The cosmetics industry leverages diverse cosmetic ingredients to formulate products that cater to beauty enhancement, skin health improvement, and diverse consumer preferences. An illustrative example is the substantial growth in the UK's market for Soil Association-certified organic and natural beauty and wellbeing products. In 2021, the sales of these products witnessed a notable 15% increase, amounting to approximately $170 million, as revealed by the annual organic beauty and wellbeing report from the Soil Association. This surge in the use of cosmetics signifies a significant driving force behind the growth of the cosmetic ingredients market.
Major companies are strategically embracing partnerships to synergize their capabilities and introduce innovative and sustainable biotechnological-based cosmetic ingredients. This strategic partnership approach involves companies leveraging each other's strengths and resources for mutual benefits and success. A notable instance of this trend is observed in the partnership between Cosmecca Korea Co., a South Korea-based K beauty manufacturing company, and Vytrus, a Spain-based cosmetic ingredient manufacturing company. Through this collaboration, the companies aim to harness biotechnology, particularly Vytrus' plant stem cell technology, to develop novel cosmetic ingredients that are both innovative and sustainable. This strategic partnership reflects the industry's commitment to advancing through collaborative efforts and cutting-edge technologies.
Product innovations are emerging as a key trend in the cosmetic ingredients market, with companies prioritizing the development of new and advanced products to maintain their competitive edge. In June 2022, Solvay S.A., a Belgium-based chemical company, introduced Mirasoft SL L60 and Mirasoft SL A60, high-performance biosurfactants. These biosurfactants play a crucial role in facilitating the creation of sustainable beauty care products with a reduced environmental and carbon footprint. Designed for various applications in the beauty care industry, including shampoos, conditioners, shower gels, face washes, and creams, these glycolipid biosurfactants underscore the industry's commitment to fostering innovation while prioritizing sustainability. This emphasis on product innovation aligns with the evolving consumer demands for eco-friendly and effective cosmetic ingredients.
In October 2021, Evonik Industries AG, a Germany-based specialty chemicals company, completed the acquisition of Botanica GmbH, an undisclosed purchase.
