Cosmeceutical Market Competition Pattern| Market Concentration is Moderate, with Top 3 Companies Accounting for 37.92% of the Market Share

Cosmeceuticals, also known as medical skincare products or functional cosmetics, are a special type of product that combines the characteristics of drugs and cosmetics. They not only have the functions of traditional cosmetics for beautifying the face, fragrance, and cleansing the skin but also have certain pharmacological effects, which can provide auxiliary treatment or care for certain skin problems.
The main difference between cosmeceuticals and regular cosmetics lies in their ingredients and efficacy. Cosmeceuticals usually contain certain medicinal ingredients, such as herbs, vitamins, minerals, etc., which can help the skin solve specific problems such as acne, pigmentation, sensitivity, aging, etc. Ordinary cosmetics, on the other hand, focus more on modifying and maintaining the skin, with fewer or no medicinal ingredients.
