Growing Trend of Natural and Organic Cosmetics Drives Middle East & Africa Cosmetic Preservatives Market

Organic and natural cosmetic products are gaining high prominence in the market. These products are free from chemicals and transparent about the content used during manufacturing. They are available with natural ingredients such as aloe vera, basil, turmeric, and neem, among others. The products are suitable for the skin as they do not cause irritation, itching, or other adverse effects.

Natural and organic products reduce the chance of skin breakout, balance skin pH levels, rehydrate and tone skin for a healthier texture, and increase nutrient absorption capacity. This helps tighten skin and minimizes large pores while regulating oil production. Due to the abovementioned properties, organic and natural cosmetic products are becoming popular among consumers across the globe.

The rising consumer awareness and understanding of the benefits of organic products, owing to the emergence of social media, is further accelerating the cosmetics and personal care industry's growth. In addition, due to the surging popularity of various claims, such as vegan, natural, organic, and botanical. Consumers are increasing their consumption of herbal beauty products - particularly skincare and hair care products - boosting the demand for organic cosmetic preservatives. Also, with the growing availability of natural-identical preservatives, their usage in organic cosmetics is increasing.

Benzoic acid and its salts, benzyl alcohol, sorbic acid and salts, salicylic acid, and its salts, and Dehydroacetic acid and salts are a few of the preservatives used in organic cosmetics. There are various manufacturers available in the global market offering organic and natural cosmetics and personal care products. Osea, Acure, Henua, MÁDARA Cosmetics are some of the popular organic cosmetic brands. Moreover, manufacturers are launching products with natural and organic ingredients. For instance, in October 2023, Organic Harvest, part of the Good Glamm Group, entered the color cosmetics category with the launch of a makeup line with certified organic ingredients. Such product launches further boost the demand for natural cosmetic preservatives.

Thus, the increasing preference for organic and natural cosmetic products is expected to create a new trend in the cosmetic preservatives market during the forecast period.
