The cosmetics industry is playing a key role in the projected growth of the jojoba oil market, which is set to reach US $254.2 million by 2024, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Cosmetics was the largest segment of the global market, accounting for 70.6% of the overall revenue in 2015.  

Demand for Organic

Jojoba oil is increasingly penetrating into cosmetic products, including lipsticks, shampoos and conditioners, and skin creams and moisturizers. This, along with the rising demand for organic personal care products and formulation development for specific consumer groups, is expected to promote growth and create new market avenues for cultivators and producers of jojoba oil.

Major cosmetic manufacturers, such as JE International, L'Oréal S.A. and Ole Henriksen, are undertaking extensive research and development for innovation of jojoba oil-based formulations. The oil has properties to mimic the oil produced by human body, acts as an emollient and moisturizer, and prevents skin aging.
