Based on type, the algae products market for cosmetics is mainly segmented into hydrocolloids, algal proteins, lipids, and carotenoids. The carotenoids segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2024–2031 due to the increasing adoption of beta carotene, astaxanthin, and lutein in cosmetic products. Furthermore, the rising demand for sunscreen lotion has driven the utilization of algae-derived beta carotene, renowned for its effectiveness in skincare formulations for protecting against UVA-light-induced damage. Moreover, cosmetic products containing beta carotene are known to reduce oxidative damage to the skin and enhance its appearance.

Based on source, the algae products market for cosmetics is segmented into macroalgae/seaweed and microalgae. In 2024, the macroalgae/seaweed segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global algae products market for cosmetics. The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the abundant availability of seaweed as raw materials for cosmetics and personal care industries, the increasing production of seaweed, and the growing awareness of the health benefits associated with seaweed products. Furthermore, the active components derived from seaweeds act as antioxidants, antibacterial and whitening agents, and anti-aging and anti-acne solutions, driving their adoption in the formulation of skin care products. Moreover, this segment is also projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2024–2031.

Based on form, the global algae products market for cosmetics is segmented into dry and liquid. In 2024, the dry segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global algae products market for cosmetics. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the longer shelf-life and ease of transportation and storage of dry algae products compared to liquid algae products and the increasing use of algae powder for product formulation in the cosmetics industry. Moreover, this segment is also projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2024–2031.

Based on application, the global algae products market for cosmetics is segmented into skin care products, hair care products, and other cosmetics applications. In 2024, the skin care products segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global algae products market for cosmetics. The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the rising consumer preferences for natural and organic skincare products, benefits of algae in skin care products, increasing skin health concerns, and rising technological advancements in the cosmetic industry. Additionally, this segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2024–2031 due to the increasing demand for multi-functional skin care products and the growing personal grooming trend.
