Cosmetic ingredients form the base chemicals for personal care products, which include soaps, shampoos, lotions, perfumes, and a variety of other products. Some cosmetics are not only used for beauty regimes, but they also serve as vital components of wellbeing. Some examples of vital cosmetics are toothpaste and sunscreens.Historically, there had been several amendments in the cosmetics sector, which in turn, affected the global cosmetic ingredients market. Right from categorizing cosmetic ingredients as drugs, to the prohibition of marketing cosmetic products that have been animal tested, the cosmetics industry has always been under the scrutiny in terms of compliance and regulations.The field of cosmeceuticals, or, active ingredients in cosmetics, is increasingly gaining popularity. This trend of using active ingredients in cosmetics has greatly helped the cosmetics industry to expand its customer base. Manufacturers are encouraged to keep up with the pace of the industry with newer and complex demands. This has also made the industry highly competitive in nature.Changes in regulations will impact the cosmetics industry negatively. The implementation of REACH (Registration, Evaluation, and Authorisation of Chemicals) is also expected to have implications, which might limit the number of ingredients available to the cosmetic industry, thereby pressurizing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
