In recent years, as consumers' pursuit of skin care quality and efficacy has increased, functional cosmetics have gradually become the mainstream of the cosmetics market. Compared with traditional cosmetics, functional cosmetics not only have basic beauty effects, but also contain a variety of effective active ingredients, achieving whitening, anti-wrinkle, sun protection, acne and other effects.
According to the latest market research data, the sales volume of functional cosmetics with plant extracts as raw materials has increased year by year, especially in the Asian market. Among them, products rich in vitamin C, peptide ingredients, hyaluronic acid, sunscreen and other ingredients are very popular. Consumers are very concerned about the "immediate effect" and "scientific verification" of products, and major brand manufacturers are also continuously increasing their R&D investment.
Countries are also increasingly strict in regulating functional cosmetics. For example, in South Korea, relevant products can only be listed after passing efficacy verification and government registration, which to a certain extent protects the rights and interests of consumers.
In the future, with the deepening of biotechnology and dermatology research, functional cosmetics will be more personalized and efficient. Industry experts pointed out that artificial intelligence and big data will further promote product customization and provide consumers with more accurate skin care solutions.
Functional cosmetics not only reflect the technical and professional development direction of the cosmetics industry, but also reflect the modern people's attitude towards life that attaches equal importance to "beauty" and "health". For the majority of consumers, choosing safe and effective products and performing scientific skin care according to their own skin type and needs is the key to achieving ideal skin condition.
