Global market for natural anti-aging skincare products on the rise
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
The popularity of skincare products is growing, and those products are including natural ingredients like vitamin E more and more often. Euromonitor International estimates that the global market for skincare products is $38.3 billion, with a steady six percent growth rate. New products being launched all over the world contain natural anti-aging ingredients like chamomile, copper, gold, minerals and amino acids.
This trend has been combined into the now well established but still fast growing anti-ageing category, leading to a raft of new products on the European market catering to these demands.
Anti-ageing products tend to focus on skin care, where anti-wrinkle cosmetics are now taking the market by storm.
In the period 2002 to 2003, it was by far the fastest growing sector, with global growth running at 6.7 per cent.
Sun Protection SPF forms part of the British retailer's best-selling 'Value' range, but despite being a low-end product it still incorporates vitamin E as well as providing comprehensive UVA and UVB protection.
In Turkey, Avon is launching a facial care range which also relies on Vitamin E and an SPF 15 to help maintain skin protection and fight ageing.
The Transforming Lift Eye Cream and Day Transforming Lift Cream also contain gold, copper and magnesium minerals as well as a variety of other vitamins.
The manufacturer claims that the product can help eliminate dark circles and blotchiness as well as vastly improving skin elasticity and firmness to give a younger looking skin in four weeks.
In the Czech Republic pH Beauty Labs has launched Freeman Botopical Instant Wrinkle eraser.
The manufacturer says that copper extract helps to firm the skin, while the anti oxidant properties green tea extract provide moisturizing protection as well as helping to prevent damage from environmental exposure.
On top of SPFs and minerals, vitamins are also playing an increasingly important role in new product launches for the skin care category.
In Germany Mauritius Cosmetics is launching Kamill Body Lotion, a new skin care product that uses chamomile extract, combined with natural moisturizers and amino acids to protect from drying.
