Are you building a robust growth strategy to seize opportunities and meet customer expectations in the cosmetics and personal care industry?
With stringent regulations restricting harmful ingredients and, in some cases, banning preservatives like parabens and formaldehyde releasers, today’s skincare, hair care, and personal hygiene products are subject to great scrutiny. As a viable alternative, customers are increasingly preferring options with natural preservatives.
While alternative preservatives can be costly and less effective, they also drive innovation as industry players explore multifunctional ingredients, setting the stage for significant growth. In leading regions for cosmetics sales such as Asia-Pacific and North America, the demand for products containing such ingredients is soaring, and proactive companies are already reaping the rewards.
Did you know?
Over 50% of personal care and beauty products in the United States, particularly in skincare and hair care, are free from parabens. This shift is driven by consumers who are increasingly vigilant about label claims, seeking products that are ‘paraben-free’ and ‘free from preservatives.’ This creates an ideal environment for the accelerated adoption of natural preservation solutions.
