RESTRAINING FACTORS

Increasing Cost of Cosmeceutical Products May Limit the Market Growth

The demand for cosmeceuticals among the population has been increasing significantly. However, the high cost of many branded cosmeceutical products has been limiting their adoption among the population.

• For instance, facial serums offered by SkinCeuticals, a cosmeceutical brand of L’Oréal, can cost somewhere between USD 78.0 and USD 182.0. However, the facial serums offered by Garnier LLC, a cosmetics brand of L’Oréal, can cost around USD 22.0.

Due to such high costs, individuals often go for cosmetic products, which are cheaper than cosmeceuticals. This factor negatively impacts the product adoption and is limiting the market growth.
