Consumers in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region are shying away from artificial/synthetic ingredients to opt for skincare products with ‘natural’ and ‘organic’ ingredients, as these are perceived to be of high-quality and safe for skin, finds GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.

This is substantiated in the company’s 2018 Q3 Consumer Survey, which shows that 41% of the respondents in the APAC region associated natural/chemical-free personal products with high-quality.

The company’s report, ‘Opportunities in the Asia-Pacific Skincare Sector: Analysis of Opportunities Offered by High-Growth Economies’, reveals that the APAC skincare market is forecast to grow from US$70.8bn in 2018 to US$99.5bn in 2023, recording the fastest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7% compared to other regions.

The APAC skincare sector is dominated by China, which accounted for a share of 50.1% in 2018, followed by Japan and South Korea with 24% and 10.8% share, respectively. India, with a forecast CAGR of 9.2%, will be a promising market for skincare products during 2018–2023 while China and Indonesia are expected to grow at healthy CAGRs of 8.3% and 8.1%, respectively.

The report highlights China, Hong Kong, South Korea and Singapore as the high-potential countries based on the company’s unique scoring system, which involves risk-reward analysis of 12 major economies in the APAC region. 

According to the report, the ‘facial care’ category led the APAC skincare market with 91.7% share of the total sales in 2018. The category is forecast to grow at a strong CAGR of 7.1%, which is marginally lower than the fastest growing category, ‘hand care’ (7.2%) during 2018-2023.

GlobalData forecasts the consumption share of facial care products to increase across all the high-potential countries while categories such as ‘depilatories’ and ‘make-up remover’ to experience a decline in their consumption share during the forecast period.
