The beauty & personal care industry is growing at a significant pace. Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe are major beauty and personal care product markets. People focus more on skincare and hair care and procure products that provide nourishment and deep hydration. Moreover, they prefer products that offer anti-aging benefits. As humans age, the body produces less collagen, creating skin problems such as wrinkles, skin loosening, and dehydration.
Alcohol consumption, smoking, and stress also trigger skin aging. Collagen peptides assist in improving skin health and slowing down the aging process. Primarily collagen peptide is used in various personal care and cosmetic products, including moisturizers, anti-aging creams and lotions, acne-fighting gels, shampoos, and hair serums. When used in hair care products, collagen peptide improves the appearance of hair and enhances hair strength. It also aids in improving the texture of hair generally damaged by excessive chemical treatments or underlying health issues. Skincare products with collagen peptides improve the appearance of damaged or dry skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness.
Consumers focus on holistic beauty, which blurs the lines between beauty, health, and well-being. People strongly believe that having beautiful skin necessitates a healthy lifestyle. Consumers are increasingly opting for healthier ways to make their skin glow, as they have traced a link between healthy skin and a balanced diet. Therefore, over the past few years, there has been a growing demand for nutricosmetics. Nutricosmetics are products or ingredients that act as nutritional supplements for skin, nails, and hair care.
They are usually offered in liquids, pills, or functional foods. With the increasing consumption, manufacturers are launching various nutricosmetics. Thus, the escalating demand for collagen peptides in personal care products and nutricosmetics is expected to introduce new trends to the collagen peptides market during the forecast period.
