Cosmetic Wipes Market Demand to Witness Marginal decline in Near Term amid COVID-19 Pandemic

The growing concern surrounding COVID-19 has changed the dynamics of the personal care industry and adversely affected almost every region in the world. The closure of all non-essential commercial activities in European countries and the USA is causing a severe impact on the cosmetic wipes market. However, after the pandemic is brought under control, the cosmetic wipes market is poised to grow ~1.3X during the forecast period 2020-2030.

The global cosmetic wipes market is anticipated to gain traction with growing awareness for face cleansing products among consumers along with anti-aging properties offered by these products. As far as the outbreak of COVID-19 is concerned, manufacturers are focusing on developing organic and natural care wipes as they are anticipating consumer inclination towards environmentally friendly products.

This, in turn, is expected to accelerate the demand for cosmetic wipes by the beginning of the third quarter. Furthermore, the manufacturers are banking on consumers’ need to save energy and time by taking into account their hectic daily schedule as they seek convenient products. Owing to the above-mentioned facts, cosmetic wipes market is foreseen to grow at a CAGR of ~2.8% during the forecast period 2020-2030.

Cleansing & Makeup Removal Wipes to Remain Highly Lucrative

The coronavirus outbreak has plummeted sales of cleansing & makeup removal wipes as people are maintaining social distancing owing to the implementation of lockdown in almost every country. This has resulted in declining sales and exposed several challenges to manufacturers operating in the cosmetic wipes market. However, post containment of the pandemic, the demand for cosmetic wipes will swiftly increase as people will resume work, which is expected to see an upward trend in the sales of cleansing & makeup removal wipes.

This, in turn, is anticipated to increase the demand for cleansing & makeup removal wipes during the forecast period. Among all the applications, the cleansing & makeup removal wipes segment is estimated to account for nearly 46% of the cosmetic wipes market by the end of 2020.

European Market Poised for Sharper Revenue Margins

However, Europe with the maximum COVID-19 cases and a key region for cosmetic wipes, coupled with a high concentration of cosmetics companies has witnessed a negative impact on cosmetic wipes sales in 2020.

The growing popularity of cosmetic wipes in developed countries, especially among millennials and generation Z seeking products that can cleanse, moisturize and refresh their face without dehydrating the skin is foreseen to create a plethora of opportunities for the players operating in the cosmetic wipes market.

During the course of the aforementioned forecast period, Europe is envisioned to sustain its lead in the global cosmetic wipes market. Although it is anticipated to grow at a slower CAGR than other regions, Europe has been easily listed among the most attractive markets for cosmetic wipes during the forecast period.
