The increasing purchasing power of consumers, which is driving their inclination toward spending on appearance, surging prevalence of skin diseases, escalating number of dermacosmetic conferences, and rising demand for dermacosmetics products among teens, who are growing old at an early age, are propelling the global dermacosmetics market. Due to the aforementioned factors, the industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% during 2020–2030, to reach $115.2 billion by 2030.
Due to COVID-19, the manufacturing industry across the world faced challenges, such as the availability of smaller workforces and government mandates for lockdowns. This, in turn, affected the market for dermacosmetics as a consequence of the reduced demand, impacted monthly income of individuals, closure of manufacturing facilities to limit the spread of the virus, and constraints with respect to the handling and transport of goods. Due to the pandemic, the supply of raw materials was also severely affected, which further hurt manufacturing activities.

The skincare category held the larger market share in 2020, and it is expected to retain its position in the coming years.
