APAC Professional Skincare Market Trends & Growth Drivers

Shift toward Natural and Organic Products Is Global Skincare Trend

The shift toward natural and organic skincare is a key trend in the professional skincare market in the APAC region. This is due to the increasing consumer awareness of skin health and the long-term side-effects of synthetic ingredients.
Consumers here are now becoming aware of the environmental damage caused by microplastics and non-biodegradable ingredients, which is making them shift to natural and organic skincare products.
Additionally, brands are utilizing locally sourced natural ingredients to create affordable products, thus furthering the shift.
Furthermore, the spread of skincare education and product information through digital channels, such as influencers and social media, continues to change the preferences of consumers.

Technological Advancement in Skincare Are Key Market Driver

Technological advancements, such as energy-based devices, advanced product formulations, wearable devices, and minimally and non-invasive therapy, are the key market trends.
The laser technology is widely used for treating pigmentation, acne, scars, and wrinkles.
Additionally, the integration of artificial intelligence and data analytics enables major brands to market specific skincare products for specific regimens.
In July 2024, South Korean beauty product company AmorePacific inaugurated a new AI lab, where robots create customized facial skincare formulations.
In November 2024, Shiseido Company Limited announced the launch of a free online beauty consultation service for customers with hearing issues. The service will be provided through sign language, chats, and lip-reading, to offer beauty counseling and personalized beauty experiences.
Furthermore, advanced LED masks and microneedling devices offering professional-grade treatments are becoming popular.
Light therapy, a feature of these devices, improves skin health and appearance.

Intense Competition Is a Challenge in Market Growth

The presence of a large number of global and local players in the APAC region creates intense competition and a challenging landscape for enterprises to survive and grow.
Global players, such as L’Oreal, Estée Lauder, and Unilever, have set high standards for their products, which may be difficult for local players to meet.
Because of their limited financial capabilities, local companies mostly source cheap chemical-based and synthetic ingredients, which are losing their popularity to clean-label products.
Additionally, products marketed as organic, natural, and cruelty free are often more expensive, which can hamper their adoption by low- and middle-income consumers.
