Noteworthy Topics
Expanded Demand for Sensitive Skin Cosmetic Products Solving Internal Stimuli Not Only External Stimulants
As demand for skincare geared to sensitive skins is increasing in recent years, the cosmetics market for sensitive skins has been brisk. There are two reasons against this backdrop:
One is polluted air from pollen, dust, fine particles (PM 2.5), exhaust gas, etc., affecting the skins. Such external annoyances sometimes cause the symptoms of sensitive skins such as itching and inflammation, which create the demand for cosmetic products that claim to be antipollution to protect the skins from pollutants in the atmosphere.
Another is unhealthy lifestyles and stresses affecting the skins. Such internal irritants are also one of the causes of sensitive skin symptoms such as itching and inflammation, which create the demand for sensitive skin cosmetics that tackle such symptoms caused by internal stimulants.
Future Outlook
The sensitive skin cosmetics market for FY2023 is projected to reach 93,500 million yen, 103.3% on a YoY basis.
As putting on the face masks has become normal in daily lives, there are more chances to suffer from skincare problems such as sensitive skins, pimple care, pore care and dead skin care, which is expected to expand the sensitive skin cosmetics market.
