Organic personal care refers to the incorporation of ingredients in personal care products that adhere to the same standards as organic food. These products exclude harsh chemicals, pesticides, and fertilizers, relying solely on natural materials.
The primary types of products in organic personal care include skin care, hair care, oral care, nail care, fragrances, and others. Skincare encompasses a range of products designed to support skin integrity, enhance its appearance, and address various skin conditions. This category includes specialties such as cleansing and exfoliating, waxing, laser hair removal, moisturizing, and the application of makeup to improve overall appearance. Organic personal care products cater to both male and female customers and are distributed through various channels, including hypermarkets or supermarkets, specialist retail stores, online retail platforms, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a notable impact on the services sector, particularly in business services, IT, and professional consulting. The increased costs of imported technology, office equipment, and critical digital infrastructure are driving up operating expenses for service providers, compelling them to either pass these costs on to clients or absorb the financial strain themselves. Outsourcing firms and IT service providers are grappling with higher hardware costs and supply chain delays, which are disrupting project timelines and squeezing profitability. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs have weakened demand for U.S.-based professional services in key global markets, slowing export-driven revenues. To navigate these challenges, the sector must focus on accelerating digital transformation, optimizing costs, and strengthening domestic client relationships to sustain growth and remain competitive in an increasingly uncertain trade environment.

This organic personal care market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future state of the industry.
The organic personal care market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $23.35 billion in 2024 to $25.52 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased awareness of health and wellness, rise in demand for natural and chemical-free products, growing concerns about synthetic ingredients in personal care, influence of eco-friendly and sustainable consumer choices, expansion of organic and natural product certifications.
The organic personal care market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $38.39 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise in disposable income and consumer purchasing power, growing preference for sustainable and ethical beauty practices, adoption of organic personal care products in emerging markets, increased focus on transparency and traceability in supply chains, growth in popularity of cruelty-free and vegan beauty products. Major trends in the forecast period include development of hybrid products combining organic and technology-driven ingredients, expansion of gender-neutral and inclusive organic personal care lines, integration of probiotics and fermentation in skincare formulations, customization of organic personal care products for individual needs, technological advancements in organic product formulation.
The forecast of 10.7% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.2% from the previous projection. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. The U.S. could see retail cost hikes as certified herbal extracts, preservative-free emulsifiers, and recyclable packaging sourced from South Korea and France become more expensive to use in personal care lines. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The growing preference for organic products is a key factor fueling the expansion of the organic personal care market. Organic beauty products are made primarily from certified organic ingredients, offering various medicinal benefits with little to no side effects, and adhering to privacy standards. Consumer demand for organic items has had a significant impact on the organic personal care industry. To capitalize on the growing "land-to-face" movement, companies are developing new products and reformulating existing ones to include more organic ingredients. For example, in March 2022, the British Beauty Council, a UK-based nonprofit, reported that 56,000 organic ingredients and products were awarded COSMOS certification, marking a 22% increase from the previous year. Therefore, the rising preference for organic products is driving the growth of the organic personal care market.
The increasing trend toward veganism is anticipated to boost the growth of the organic personal care market in the coming years. In the context of cosmetics, veganism refers to products that do not contain any ingredients or by-products derived from animals. Vegan formulations in organic personal care products signify cosmetic and skincare items that are free from animal-derived components. For instance, in April 2024, Finder, a US-based personal finance comparison site, reported that around 2.5 million individuals in the UK are vegan, representing 4.7% of the population, up from 1.4 million vegans (2.5%) in 2023. This indicates an increase of 1.1 million vegans in the UK between 2023 and 2024. Consequently, the rising inclination towards veganism is driving the growth of the organic personal care market.
Product innovation is a key trend gaining traction in the organic personal care market. Major companies in the organic personal care sector are concentrating on investing in new product developments to solidify their market presence. For example, in August 2022, ORGAGLO, an India-based brand specializing in plant-based skin and hair care, introduced a range of vegan and cruelty-free products. This product line includes offerings for baby care, hair care, face care, and body care. By launching these products, ORGAGLO has entered India's personal care segment with skin, hair, and baby care items made from high-quality natural ingredients. The brand's offerings cater to both adults and children, demonstrating a commitment to ethical and sustainable practices in personal care.
Major companies in the organic personal care market are concentrating on introducing solutions within the personal care and cosmetics sector to gain a competitive advantage. Personal care and cosmetics include a diverse array of products aimed at enhancing beauty, hygiene, and overall well-being. For example, in September 2024, Core Biogenesis, a France-based biotechnology company, entered the personal care and cosmetics sector with the launch of two innovative active ingredients, peauvita and peauforia. These products utilize advanced growth factor technology and have been formulated to target key signs of aging.
In April 2024, Clariant, a Switzerland-based manufacturer of cosmetic products, acquired Lucas Meyer Cosmetics for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aligns with Clariant's strategy to broaden its product range and emphasize innovation in cosmetics. Lucas Meyer Cosmetics is a Canada-based producer of organic personal care products, including SKINectura.
