Nanomaterials in cosmetics and personal care products are substances engineered at the nanoscale, typically ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers in size, and integrated into various beauty and personal care formulations. These nanomaterials exhibit unique properties such as enhanced absorption, improved stability, and heightened efficacy, enabling manufacturers to create innovative products with desirable cosmetic benefits.
The main types of nanomaterials in the cosmetic and personal care market, as covered in this report, are segmented by their product category, inorganic nanomaterials. These include metal-based nanomaterials, mineral-based nanomaterials, and polymer-based nanomaterials. These products are distributed through various channels such as supermarkets or hypermarkets, convenience stores, specialty stores, and online retail platforms. The end users of these nanomaterials encompass a broad range of cosmetic and personal care products, including skincare, haircare, makeup, and other related categories.
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.
Tariffs on specialty chemicals and nanomaterial raw inputs have increased production costs for nanomaterials used in cosmetics and personal care products. Asia pacific regions, particularly china and south korea, are most affected due to their strong role in nanomaterial manufacturing and cosmetic exports. Higher import duties have slightly raised formulation and sourcing costs for global brands. However, tariffs are encouraging local production, alternative material sourcing, and innovation in cost-efficient nanomaterial synthesis methods.
The nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market statistics, including nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market share, detailed nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care industry. This nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry
The nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.74 billion in 2025 to $3.11 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing consumer demand for advanced skincare solutions, early adoption of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in sunscreens, increasing focus on cosmetic product efficacy, expansion of global beauty and personal care industry, established use of inorganic nanomaterials in formulations.
The nanomaterials in cosmetic and personal care market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.9 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for multifunctional cosmetic products, increasing investment in nano-based cosmetic R&D, growth of premium and dermocosmetic brands, expanding awareness of nanotechnology benefits, rising consumption of skincare and makeup products. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of nano-enabled uv protection ingredients, rising adoption of nanotechnology for enhanced skin penetration, growing demand for long-lasting cosmetic formulations, expansion of anti-aging products using nanomaterials, innovation in transparent and lightweight personal care products.
The increasing aging population is expected to drive the growth of nanomaterials in the cosmetic and personal care markets going forward. This demographic shift is fueled by lower birth rates and longer life expectancy, resulting from advancements in healthcare and improved living conditions. Nanomaterials in cosmetics and personal care are employed to reduce signs of aging by enhancing the delivery and effectiveness of anti-aging ingredients in the skin. For instance, in January 2024, the Population Reference Bureau, a US-based non-profit organization, reported that the number of Americans aged 65 and older is projected to rise from 58 million in 2022 to 82 million by 2050, a 47% increase. Consequently, this age group's share of the total U.S. population is expected to grow from 17% to 23% over the same period. Therefore, the rising aging population is driving the growth of nanomaterials in the cosmetic and personal care markets.
Leading companies in these markets are focusing on developing innovative sunscreen ingredients such as titanium dioxide to enhance UV protection and meet consumer demands for effective and aesthetically pleasing sun protection solutions. Titanium dioxide acts as an opacifying agent, creating a matte appearance and minimizing skin imperfections such as fine lines, wrinkles, and blemishes. For example, in December 2023, Croda International plc launched a range of advanced sunscreen ingredients, including Solaveil CT-60W, a water-based titanium dioxide dispersion providing high SPF levels without the usual whitening effect. This formulation offers strong UV protection while remaining transparent on the skin, meeting consumer expectations for effective yet cosmetically elegant sun protection.
In April 2023, Givaudan S.A. acquired a cosmetic ingredients portfolio from Amyris Inc., enhancing its strategic position in the cosmetics and personal care sector. This move strengthens Givaudan's presence and growth prospects in the market, leveraging Amyris Inc.'s expertise in performance and nanomaterials for the cosmetic and personal care industry.
