Increased consumption of skincare and makeup products and manufacturers' awareness of product safety are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Middle East & Africa cosmetic preservatives market growth.

In recent times, awareness regarding skin health and appearance has increased significantly among consumers across the globe. Consumers seek skincare and makeup products that make their skin appear healthy, youthful, and radiant due to increased consciousness regarding appearance in social settings.
