The circular beauty products market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.32 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The anticipated growth during the forecast period can be attributed to a heightened emphasis on carbon-neutral production, increasing consumer preference for zero-waste products, pressure from environmental advocacy groups, rising raw material costs that promote circular solutions, and investments in closed-loop supply chains. Key trends expected in this period include partnerships between beauty brands and recycling companies, a focus on waterless beauty products to minimize waste, the creation of bio-based alternatives to plastic, personalized beauty products featuring sustainable ingredients, and growing consumer demand for transparency in sourcing and packaging.

The increasing awareness of personal care is anticipated to drive the growth of the circular beauty products market in the future. Personal care encompasses compassionate assistance and support that individuals receive in managing daily living tasks and maintaining hygiene to uphold their health, dignity, and quality of life. This rising awareness is fueled by a growing consumer demand for natural and organic products, an increased focus on health and wellness, the aging population's desire for anti-aging solutions, and younger consumers’ preferences for personalized and gender-inclusive offerings. Circular beauty products play a significant role in enhancing awareness of personal care by promoting sustainability, reducing waste, and encouraging environmentally conscious consumer choices. For example, a report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, released in December 2023, indicated that average annual expenditures rose from $66,928 in 2021 to $72,967 in 2022, with spending on personal care products and services increasing by 12.3% to $866, compared to a 10.9% rise in apparel and services. Thus, the growing awareness of personal care is contributing to the expansion of the circular beauty products market.

Leading companies in the circular beauty products market are focusing on developing refillable items to minimize waste, reduce their carbon footprint, and address the increasing consumer demand for sustainable and eco-friendly solutions.

For instance, in January 2022, Chanel, a luxury fashion brand based in the UK, launched the No. 1 de Chanel line. This product range features refillable beauty items designed to lessen environmental impact by enabling consumers to reuse elegant packaging, thereby reducing waste associated with single-use containers. This blend of sophisticated design and sustainable practices encourages a culture of responsible consumption in the luxury beauty sector through the use of natural ingredients and recyclable materials.
