The Bismuth Oxychloride Market was valued at US$ 26.8 Mn in 2022, according to Bismuth oxychloride market Report, by Product Type (Industrial Grade and Cosmetics & Pharmaceutical Grade), by End Use Industry (Cosmetics, Automotive, Pharmaceutical, and Others), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Middle East & Africa). The bismuth oxychloride market is projected to reach US$ 39.6 Mn by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.00% during the forecast period (2023-2030). Factors such as the growing use of bismuth oxychloride in the cosmetics industry coupled with its properties such as silky and smooth texture in cosmetics are expected to boost the demand for bismuth oxychloride over the forecast period. Bismuth oxychloride is primarily used in cosmetic formulations and personal care products including skin care, nail products, cleansing products, fragrances, and hair coloring products. Bismuth oxychloride is used as a filler in cosmetic products as it provides a smooth and silky texture and a semi-transparent mild luster to the skin. It is used by ‘makeup brands’ where bismuth oxychloride is used in product formulations as it reflects light and provides a glowing and high shine effect. Moreover, bismuth oxychloride can be tinted with other pigments to create different shades. Therefore, it has extensive application as a filler in mineral makeup products such as face powders, foundations, lipsticks, eye shadows, and mascara among others. However, the U.S. FDA has approved the use of bismuth oxychloride in cosmetics and drugs, though exposure to high concentrations of bismuth oxychloride in the long term can cause adverse effects on the skin such as irritation and inflammation. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) provided by bismuth oxychloride manufacturers also state that it can irritate the skin and eyes. As a result, consumers are expected to shift their preference to products that do not contain bismuth oxychloride, which is likely to act as a major restrain in the growth of the global bismuth oxychloride market.
