The global color cosmetics market size is estimated to reach USD 148.70 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2026 to 2033 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing consciousness about physical appearance, along with rising purchasing power in the developing countries such as India, China, and Brazil, is driving the market for the products.

Facial products dominated the market, accounting for over 38.2% share of the total revenue in 2018. Popular facial products include facial foundation, powder, concealer, and bronzer. Growing penetration of social medial and online makeup tutorials has been propelling the demand of the facial products over the world. Over the past few years, waterproof and sweat proof makeups have gained significant popularity among the women, especially during summer.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing regional market. Increasing per capita income in countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and Brazil has provided consumers the space to spend more on premium personal care products. Rapid urbanization in these nations has helped in expanding the consumer base of the industry. China makes a considerable contribution to the growth as Chinese travelers has fueled the sales of the color cosmetics significantly. They accounted for 45% of sales of the travel retails in the world. L'Oréal has partnered with the local start-ups of Japan, China, and India to strengthen its presence in these lucrative markets.
