Drivers: As of January 2024, 45.40 million people in Egypt were active on social media, making up 40.0% of the country's entire population. Social media sites like Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram have developed into indispensable resources for businesses looking to interact with customers, introduce new items, and foster brand loyalty. In this dynamic, influencers and beauty bloggers are essential because their evaluations and suggestions have a big impact on what customers decide to buy. Furthermore, a greater number of individuals are finding beauty goods more enticing and easily accessible because of digital marketing strategies including online tutorials, virtual try-on technologies, and targeted commercials.

Challenges: A major challenge is the nation's economic instability, which affects consumer spending patterns and lowers their capacity to afford luxury goods like cosmetics. Often, this economic turbulence leads to variations in sales volumes and demand. Moreover, distribution of products is impacted by infrastructural constraints and logistical difficulties, especially when it comes to efficiently reaching remote or inaccessible places. Inefficiencies in the distribution network and uneven market penetration may result from this.
Impact of COVID-19 on Egypt Beauty and Personal Care Market
The COVID-19 epidemic caused significant disruptions to the beauty and personal care market in Egypt, affecting many aspects of the sector. Lockdowns enforced by the government and social distancing tactics resulted in the closure of non-essential retail establishments, such as hairdressers and beauty stores, which had a substantial impact on customer engagement and sales. The trend away from in-person meetings and toward remote work has further decreased consumer demand for makeup and personal hygiene items. Global supply chain disruptions also impacted the availability of completed items and raw materials, which resulted in shortages and postponed the launch of new products.
