One significant issue is the high costs associated with premium and imported products, making them inaccessible to a larger portion of the population. Additionally, counterfeit and low-quality products flood the market, affecting consumer trust and brand reputation. Environmental concerns related to the cosmetic industry, such as packaging waste and the use of harmful chemicals, also hinder growth as more consumers demand sustainable alternatives. Regulatory compliance and high taxes on imports further pose challenges for manufacturers and retailers.
