Europe Cosmeceuticals Market

Europe Cosmeceuticals Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The cosmeceuticals market size in Europe is predicted to be growing at a CAGR of 5.21% from 2023 to 2028 and be worth USD 23.96 billion by 2028 from USD 18.59 billion in 2023.

The growing patient population suffering from skin disorders and the increasing geriatric population in Europe majorly drive the cosmeceuticals market growth in Europe. Almost half of the European population suffers from one form of skin issue or the other and this trend is mainly attributed to lifestyle changes, including unhealthy diets, reduced exercise, work-related stress, alcohol and tobacco consumption and hormonal fluctuations. Skin diseases such as skin cancer, vitiligo, rosacea, alopecia areata, eczema, wrinkles and blackheads are common. Moreover, the skin may lose elasticity and brightness with growing age due to inadequate nutrition and increased medication use. Consequently, cosmeceutical products are being used to address these issues effectively. Cosmeceuticals combine cosmetic and medical ingredients to offer supplementary health benefits to the skin. These products are also effective in treating conditions such as large pores, hyperpigmentation, cellulite, sun damage, and acne.

The rising awareness among the European population regarding the importance of maintaining a youthful appearance fuels the European cosmeceuticals market growth. The demand for products that offer a combination of cosmetic and medical benefits for the permanent treatment of skin issues is on the rise due to the growing number of individuals focused on their appearance while attending college or the workplace. The growing usage of cosmeceutical products by individuals in Europe who are active on social media supports the European market growth.

The growing awareness and adoption of organic cosmeceutical products in Europe accelerate the growth rate of the European market. Researchers have been increasingly focussing on the development of skincare products that use natural and medical ingredients which are more effective and have fewer side effects than conventional cosmetic products due to the rising demand for organic products. Moreover, there is increasing investment in research and development and expanding pharmaceutical support that is driving the growth of the Europe cosmeceuticals market.

The high cost of cosmeceutical products primarily hampers the growth of the European cosmeceuticals market. The lack of skilled professionals, low availability of cosmeceutical products and limited awareness of the benefits of these products restrain the growth of the European market. Moreover, rising awareness among the European population regarding the side effects associated with using cosmeceutical products such as skin irritation and redness further hinder the market growth in Europe.
