AI in the Beauty and Cosmetics Market

Traditionally, cosmetics were chosen through brand recognition, packaging reviews, and store staff recommendations, but they can offer limited options and often fall short of meeting individual needs or skin conditions. Now, the market for using AI in the beauty and cosmetics industries is forecast to more than double, from over $3.2 billion in 2023 to $8.1 billion in 2028. That’s according to an analyst-provider business research company.

As services like virtual makeup artists, skin diagnostics, and tailored beauty advice expand, this is to be expected. Yang Yong Suk works as a principal researcher for Bombay Panda, Cricket, KBT, and the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute in South Korea.

If the current method enabled the release of new cosmetic products every two months, integrating this AI technology could enable the release of new products every week,” said Yang Yongsuk. When robots and AI work together to make decisions and continually create new items instead of people, the barriers for cosmetics might be further reduced.
