Rising Demand for Cosmetics to Aid the Global Phenoxyethanol Market Growth
The global phenoxyethanol market is driven by the rising demand for cosmetics due to the need for the protection of such beauty products from any bacterial development and to prolong the shelf life of products like lip and eye make-up, perfumes and deodorants , water-based skin lotions, and nail polish removers. The market is further aided by the rise in the adoption rate of phenoxyethanol by sectors, such as paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, soap, and other sectors. Some of the factors, such as product innovation by introducing natural alternatives, is predicted to generate new opportunities for the key players in the forecast period. Other factors, such as the rising disposable income, rapid urbanisation, and changing lifestyles, are also expected to aid the market growth for phenoxyethanol.
However, the market may face challenges owing to the strict government regulations in relation with the use of phenoxyethanol. In addition to this, the fact that phenoxyethanol is a potential allergen, due to which overexposure to the product may cause diarrhea, or vomiting, is also not favourable for the market growth.
