Market Insight:

The global nanotechnology in cosmetics market was valued at USD 9.23 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 37.59 billion in 2032, with a CAGR of 18.93% during the forecast period 2024-2032.

The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing utilization of nanoscale-size ingredients to offer deeper skin penetration, skin smoothening, improved UV protection, increased color, long-lasting effects, and many more. Indecipherable nanoparticles in beautifying products are used as preservatives or UV filters. Advanced properties of nanoparticles advantageous for the cosmetic industry such as transparency, chemical reactivity, and solubility are increasing the demand. The utilization of nanoparticles for the treatment and prevention of premature aging and hyperpigmentation skin will fuel the growth of the market. Nanotechnology is also mainly used for skin care regimens for radiation and sun-stressed skin. The unique ability to the prevention of cornification, connective tissue disorders, and skin barrier disorders, such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, perioral dermatitis, and neurodermatitis is highly augmenting the demand by the young population.

The global nanotechnology in cosmetics market is primarily driven by the growing use nanoscale ingredients. Use of nanoscale ingredients enables deeper skin/hair penetration, improved stability of actives, better UV-protection, novel texture/feel, controlled release of ingredients. Moreover rising demand for more advanced and high-efficiency cosmetics, especially in the premium segment is expected to boost the nanotechnology in cosmetics market in the next few years. Furthermore, the growth in this industry is supported by innovation in formulation technologies, for instance, liposomes, nanoemulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanocapsules, nanosilver and nanogold. The demand for these formulations is likely to push the growth in the industry over the next 7 years. On the other side stringent regulations across various countries is likely to restrain the growth in this market in the years to come. extensive usage of nanotechnology in cosmetic products may cause various diseases and consequential health hazards. Thus, the effects of inhaled nanoparticles in the body may cause heart problems and lung inflammation is a major factor restraining the growth of the market. Furthermore, the usage of micellar nanoparticles for the production of cosmetic products will create lucrative growth opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
