Competitive Landscape
Leading Manufacturers Consolidate Position Amid Evolving Consumer Preferences
Skin care in the UAE demonstrated high concentration in 2025, with leading manufacturers such as L’Oréal Middle East FZE, Beiersdorf Middle East and Unilever Gulf FZE collectively commanding a significant portion of retail value sales. L’Oréal has strengthened its position, increasing its retail value share from 12% in 2020 to 19% in 2025, reflecting strategic growth and market penetration.
Small Players Increase Competition with Personalised and Culturally Meaningful Products
Manufacturers such as NAOS SAS and Procter & Gamble Gulf FZE show stable but modest shares, with NAOS SAS growing slightly to 6% and Procter & Gamble decreasing to 4%. The presence of numerous players with single-digit shares illustrates the skin care landscape’s competitive nature beyond the leaders.
