Microcapsules are tiny capsules, which contain ingredients or materials that are released when the capsules are broken, melted, or dissolved. Microencapsulation is used increasingly in the skin care and personal care markets. Several skin care and personal care products are composed of biologically active substances that are encapsulated for increasing stability of active materials.
Topical and transdermal delivery of active cosmetic ingredients works effectively by reaching the target site within the skin. Protection of these active ingredients is necessary during formulation, storage, and application of the cosmetic product. Hence, ingredients are microencapsulated in the skin care products. Rise in use of microencapsulated ingredients in the skin care application drives the growth of the market.
Nowadays, in cosmetics industry major interest is toward applications of essential oils, vitamins, skin moisturizing agents, antiaging agents, and others. Various new techniques of microencapsulation have been developed, which have wide applications in skin care, pharmaceuticals, food industries, and cosmetics.
The North America & Europe microencapsulated ingredients market is segmented into ingredient, application, and region.

Executive Summary
According to the report titled, 'Microencapsulated Ingredients Market by ingredients and application: North America & Europe Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019-2026,' the North America & Europe microencapsulated ingredients market accounted for revenue of $229.9millionin 2018 and is anticipated to generate $349.2millionby 2026. The North America & Europe microencapsulated ingredients market size is projected to experience growth at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2019 to 2026.Microencapsulation technology enables compounds to encapsulate inside a microsphere/microcapsule. Microencapsulation is done through a chemical method known as interfacial cross-linking. In interfacial crosslinking process, the small bifunctional monomer comprising active hydrogen atoms are replaced by a bio sourced polymer, such as protein. The acid chloride reacts with the various functional groups of the protein during the reaction, leading to the formation of a membrane. The method is developed to restrain the use of toxic diamines for skin care applications.
Several different active ingredients such as pigments, vitamins, UV filters, skin lightening components, active ingredients, and essential oils are successfully encapsulated inside microcapsules developed from polymeric and non-polymeric materials including polyethylene glycols, cellulose, polylactides, and others. Microencapsulation in skin care products preserves the ingredients properties and enables the ingredients to release into the skin.
On the basis of ingredient, the UV filters segment holds the largest North America and Europe microencapsulated ingredients market share, in terms of revenue, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8%. Encapsulated UV filters are used to prevent the direct contact of the UV filters with skin which in turn prevents skin from sunburn, phot aging, and skin cancer. The rise in demand for encapsulated UV filters is due to temperature rise in economies such as Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, The Netherl ands, Sweden, and Switzerland and. This is expected to fuel the growth of overall North America & Europe microencapsulated ingredients market during the forecast period.
On the basis of application, Anti-wrinkle & anti-aging creams segment holds the largest share, in terms of revenue, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0%. This is owing to the rise in awareness among people for aging process, and appearance.
