Germany stands out as Europe's leading market. The German organic cosmetics market grew at an annual rate of 6.4%, capturing 8.8% of the total German cosmetics market in 2016. Demand for organic cosmetics in Germany is being driven by a growing base of environmentally conscious consumers, with 1.2 million new consumers adopting organic cosmetics over a two-year period, including 900,000. Factors influencing this trend include an ageing population with substantial purchasing power, increasing household budgets for personal care, and a greater openness of the younger population to organic products. Despite the presence of major international players, local German brands such as Weleda, Dr. Haushka and Eco Cosmetics continue to thrive. Online sales have become an important channel, with 65% of Germans buying organic cosmetics online and the share of online cosmetics sales rising from 7.5% to 11.5%. German consumers focus primarily on value for money and product quality, particularly with 21% still paying attention to cosmetic ingredients. The market is also focusing on various certification labels, indicating a product's vegan, organic, natural and cruelty-free attributes, which serve as a guide for consumers looking for ethical and sustainable products.
Organic cosmetics market trends in Germany
The market for organic cosmetics in Germany has seen robust growth, underlining a clear demand for products that are not only effective but also respectful of the environment and consumers' health. The market, valued at around 1.3 billion euros, demonstrates the country's leadership in the adoption of organic beauty and skincare products, which account for around 8.8% of the total German cosmetics market.
One of the key drivers of this trend is growing consumer awareness of product ingredients, with around 21% of Germans scrutinizing the components of their beauty products. This heightened awareness is also reflected in purchasing criteria, with value for money and product quality being paramount considerations. In fact, German consumers are increasingly aligning their purchasing behavior with their ethical, health and environmental values. The robustness of the market is also reflected in trade figures, with global cosmetics exports reaching almost $4 billion and imports around $2.7 billion. France emerges as a key trading partner for Germany, for both cosmetics imports and exports. Demographic changes in Germany are also influencing market dynamics. In particular, the aging population, which currently accounts for over 21% of the total, has considerable purchasing power and contributes to the growth of domestic cosmetics consumption. In addition, the younger generation is more open to organic cosmetics, a trend that suggests potential for market expansion. The distribution of organic cosmetics is characterized by its diversity, the main channels being supermarkets, pharmacies, perfumeries and online platforms. Of these, pharmacies are particularly favored by 75% of Germans for the purchase of organic cosmetics, while online sales are following an upward trajectory, with the proportion of cosmetics sold online rising from 7.5% in 2015 to 11.5% in 2018. Despite the presence of international cosmetics giants, the German market is witnessing the rapid rise of local players, with brands such as Weleda and Dr. Haushka gaining ground.
This competitive landscape fosters innovation and offers consumers a wide range of choices. On the regulatory front, the ISO 16128 standard introduced in 2016 enables a clear differentiation between organic, organic-derived, natural and natural-derived cosmetic products. Various private labels such as BDIH, NaTrue, and EcoCert certify organic cosmetics, ensuring that they adhere to rigorous criteria, such as the exclusion of synthetic colorants, fragrances, silicones, parabens, PEGs, and products of animal origin.

Presentation of the organic cosmetics market
The organic cosmetics market is a sub-segment of the broader cosmetics market. A cosmetic product includes any substance used to clean, moisturize or alter a person's skin, hair, nails or teeth
Cosmetics can be divided into two categories
- Beauty products: make-up, perfume, skin cream;
- Care products: shampoo, soap, deodorant.
Released in 2016, the iSO 16128 standard concerns organic and natural cosmetic products. It makes it possible to distinguish four main types of products: biological, biological derivative, natural and natural derivative. [ FEBEA ]
Natural and organic cosmetics are made from natural raw materials which makes them more respectful of the skin and the environment. They are certified by various private labels (and not the European label, which only concerns food products) such as labels BDIH , NaTrue or EcoCert which ensure that they meet several criteria: for example, that they do not use chemicals or products of animal origin, such as silicone, paraben, PEG (polyethylene glycol), synthetic dyes and perfumes, etc.
To be considered organic, products must contain at least 95 % of products from organic farming . [ BDIH Nevertheless, public opinion tends to identify them as products containing ingredients of natural and unprocessed origin. This is why we will take into account these two meanings of the word (certified organic and natural) in this study
The world market for organic cosmetics is booming and especially Germany the leading European market
The enthusiasm also affects large groups who see organic farming as a way of renew their product range and to regain consumer confidence. Trust is indeed a key element in gaining market share, which is why, for example, the number of different labels or the marketing of independent brands in specific distribution channels . Finally, the success of the online sale which is a real growth driver for small and large players
