Published 08 July 2025

Matte Lipstick Industry Overview

During the forecast period (2024-2032), the matte lipstick market's compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is anticipated to be approximately 9.96%.

The Allure of Matte: Why Consumers Can’t Get Enough

Matte lipsticks have long been associated with bold, confident expressions. Offering intense pigmentation, long-wear capabilities, and a velvety finish, these products have captivated consumers worldwide. In recent years, beauty enthusiasts have increasingly leaned toward products that combine sophistication with durability. Matte formulas, known for their smudge-proof and transfer-resistant features, fit the bill perfectly—especially in an age of mask-wearing and high-definition selfies.

Additionally, the resurgence of '90s beauty trends has contributed to the rise in matte lipstick popularity. Shades like deep plum, burgundy, and brick red are flying off the shelves, favored by Gen Z and Millennials alike.

Innovation Meets Sustainability

Beyond color and texture, what’s driving the growth of the matte lipstick market is innovation—particularly in clean and sustainable beauty. As consumers become more conscious of what goes into their makeup, brands are responding with cruelty-free, vegan, paraben-free, and organic formulations.

Many new matte lipsticks on the market are infused with nourishing ingredients like jojoba oil, shea butter, and vitamin E to counteract the traditional drying effect of matte formulas. This allows consumers to enjoy long-lasting matte color without compromising on lip health.

Additionally, eco-friendly packaging and refillable lipstick tubes are being adopted by major cosmetic brands, aligning with the values of today’s eco-conscious buyers and further expanding the market’s appeal.

E-Commerce and Influencer Culture Fueling Sales

The rise of social media influencers and beauty vloggers has played a vital role in promoting matte lipstick. With millions of followers on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, beauty influencers are shaping consumer preferences in real time.

Meanwhile, online sales channels continue to dominate the distribution landscape. Digital beauty retailers and D2C brand platforms offer virtual try-on tools, user reviews, and curated collections that enhance the customer journey. With younger consumers preferring to shop online for cosmetics, the matte lipstick segment is well-positioned to benefit from this shift.

Regional Insights: Asia-Pacific Leads the Charge

Asia-Pacific is emerging as a leading market for matte lipstick, driven by rising disposable income, a large youth demographic, and a growing interest in global beauty trends. Countries like China, South Korea, and India are witnessing a boom in domestic and international cosmetics brands, further fueling demand.

North America and Europe remain mature markets, where consumers seek high-quality, premium, and clean-label products. The increasing trend of self-expression through makeup, especially among younger populations, is sustaining interest in bold, matte finishes across these regions.
