Australia Skincare Market

Australia Skincare Market Overview:

The Australia skincare market size reached USD 2.86 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 4.22 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.44% during 2025-2033. The market is fuelled by mounting consumer knowledge about skin health, surging demand for natural and organic products, rising interest in anti-aging products, and social media impact. Moreover, climate-related skin issues and an outdoor culture are strong drivers that add to the growth of the market.

Australia Skincare Market Trends:

Demand for Personalized Skincare Solutions

Australian consumers are now looking for customized skincare solutions based on their individual skin types, environmental factors, and lifestyle requirements. This trend is fueled by the development of skin analysis technologies, which allow brands to provide personalized product recommendations and routines. Startups and traditional skincare brands are both putting money into artificial intelligence and data-driven platforms to develop hyper-personalized products, from digital consultations to DNA-matched products. The focus on personalised care is particularly prevalent among millennials and Gen Z shoppers, who appreciate effectiveness and openness. This move towards personalisation is also spurring niche brands to be developed, targeting particular skin issues like pigmentation, sensitivity, or acne. With the market maturing, personalisation is becoming a core differentiator in driving brand loyalty and customer retention. For instance, in March 2024, Medipledge, a premium post-laser skincare brand, launched in Australia. Specializing in skin barrier restoration after cosmetic treatments, it focuses on Asian skin, particularly Type IV. With advanced ingredients like PDRN and Centella Asiatica, Medipledge’s products undergo rigorous clinical testing for safety and efficacy. The brand offers customized skincare solutions aimed at restoring the skin’s multidimensional barrier post-treatment, aligning with the rising demand for personalized skincare tailored to individual skin needs, environmental conditions, and lifestyle.

Rise of Cosmeceuticals and Clinical Skincare

The Australian skincare market is witnessing a significant shift toward cosmeceuticals—products that combine cosmetic and pharmaceutical properties to offer therapeutic benefits. With growing consumer interest in medically backed, results-driven products, there has been a surge in demand for clinical skincare brands that incorporate active ingredients such as retinoids, peptides, and AHAs/BHAs. Dermatologist-developed and pharmacy-distributed skincare ranges are gaining popularity, especially among consumers aged 30 and above seeking anti-aging and corrective treatments. This trend is also fueled by the increasing accessibility of professional skincare through e-commerce and teledermatology platforms. As a result, skincare routines are becoming more sophisticated, with consumers adopting multi-step regimens involving targeted serums and treatments. For instance, in March 2025, U.S.-based HYDRINITY Accelerated Skin Science, a professional, clinically backed skincare brand, announced its expansion into Australia through a strategic partnership with Device Consulting, a leading Australian medical technology provider. HYDRINITY, known for its advanced hyaluronic acid-based skincare originally developed for regenerative medicine, is now targeting over 1,000 plastic surgeons and dermatologists, as well as 39,000 GPs offering cosmetic services across Australia. This expansion aligns with Australia’s rising consumer interest in premium, science-driven skincare, especially amid one of the world’s highest UV indexes.
