A conclave by the cosmetics industry is scheduled between June 19-21 at Palace Grounds in Bengaluru.
India is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most attractive destinations for the beauty and personal care industry, drawing the attention of global brands, manufacturers, ingredient suppliers and investors seeking growth in a dynamic consumer market, a release has said.
Against this backdrop, Cosmetica 2026, a premier cosmetics, beauty and personal care exhibition, will be held from June 19-21, 2026, at Palace Grounds, Bengaluru, bringing together stakeholders from across the beauty value chain.
The exhibition will be inaugurated by actor Nidhi Agarwal. President of the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Jayamala, and the President of the Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FKCCI), Uma Reddy, will also grace the occasion.
Market worth USD 30 billion
The Indian beauty and personal care market, estimated to be worth over USD 30 billion, is projected to grow at a robust pace over the coming years, driven by rising disposable incomes, increasing urbanisation, digital commerce and evolving consumer preferences.
With one of the world’s youngest populations and a rapidly expanding middle class, India is becoming a key growth engine for the global cosmetics industry.
“The global beauty industry is increasingly looking towards India not merely as a consumer market but as a strategic hub for innovation, manufacturing and product development. Cosmetica 2026 will serve as a platform to connect brands, suppliers, distributors, retailers and beauty professionals, while showcasing the immense opportunities that India offers,” said Ceyril Perira, MD, Triune Exhibitors Pvt. Ltd.
Growth opportunities span multiple categories including premium skincare, colour cosmetics, fragrances, men’s grooming products and natural, herbal and Ayurvedic beauty solutions.
The expansion of e-commerce, quick commerce and social commerce platforms has enabled brands to reach consumers in Tier-II and Tier-III cities, creating unprecedented opportunities for market penetration and brand building.
The event will also spotlight emerging trends such as clean beauty, sustainable packaging, cruelty-free formulations, beauty technology and personalised skincare solutions, which are increasingly influencing purchasing decisions among Gen Z and millennial consumers.
At the same time, industry experts will deliberate on key challenges facing the sector, including regulatory compliance, counterfeit products, supply chain resilience, raw material price volatility and intensifying competition.
Discussions and networking sessions during the exhibition will focus on strategies to address these challenges while sustaining growth.
The key segments at Cosmetica 2026 are Cosmetics and Finished Products; Ingredients and Formulations; Packaging and Machinery; Professional Salon and Spa and Beauty Tech and Digital.
The last segment will see AI-driven personalization tools — Virtual try-on technology, digital marketing services and E-commerce solutions.
As international beauty companies deepen their engagement with India, the message is becoming increasingly clear: the future growth story of the global cosmetics industry will be written in India.
