The global cosmetics market has experienced significant growth, driven by rising consumer awareness and demand for personal grooming and skincare products. In 2023, the market's retail sales reached $446 billion, marking a 10% increase from the previous year. The skincare segment, in particular, has seen substantial growth, accounting for 40% of the global market in 2023. Besides this, ongoing technological advancements have also played a pivotal role in strengthening the market growth. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in product development and personalized beauty solutions has enhanced consumer engagement and satisfaction. For instance, in 2024, South Korean cosmetics giant AmorePacific opened an artificial intelligence (AI) beauty lab, where robots custom-mix face products and recommend the most suitable lipstick colors. Analysts suggest that using AI instead of human consultants could speed up product development and reduce variables, thereby propelling the market forward.
Additionally, the proliferation of social media platforms has amplified beauty trends and product awareness, influencing purchasing behaviors across various demographics. Concurrent with this, the increasing number of working women globally has further boosted product demand, as disposable incomes rise and spending on beauty products increases. Emerging markets, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, have become significant contributors to market growth. In 2023, Asia-Pacific accounted for almost a third of the global market, with China experiencing a 3% growth. Moreover, the trend towards natural and organic products has also gained momentum, with consumers seeking products free from harmful chemicals, thereby driving innovation and diversification within the industry. Furthermore, e-commerce has revolutionized product accessibility, offering consumers a wide range of options and convenience, which has been instrumental in market expansion. The men's grooming segment is another area of growth, with increasing acceptance and use of cosmetics among men contributing to the market expansion.

According to the report, North America accounted for the largest market share on account of advancements in product formulations and innovative technologies.
The demand for cosmetics in North America is propelled by the trend of premiumization and customization in beauty products, with consumers increasingly seeking high-quality skincare tailored to specific needs. This growth is especially evident in the USA, where the market was valued at USD 19.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% between 2024 and 2032, reaching nearly USD 26.6 billion by 2032. Besides this, innovative packaging solutions, such as airless pump bottles and travel-friendly pouches, are also capturing consumer attention, fostering a sense of luxury and convenience.
