December 15, 2025 – Industry research reports show that the 2025 beauty ingredient trend is characterized by “precision efficacy and sustainable ingredients”. Eight core ingredients dominate the skincare segment, among which integrated ingredients of biotechnology and natural plant extracts have become mainstream. Among biotech ingredients, recombinant collagen has become a major anti-aging component due to its high compatibility, with Guangzhou Jiyuan Biotechnology registering 293 related products throughout the year; Thiamidol 630, a whitening ingredient screened by AI, is far more effective than traditional ingredients and has become a core choice for high-end whitening products. Among natural plant extracts, bakuchiol, known as “plant retinol”, balances anti-aging effects and gentleness, suitable for sensitive skin; sea buckthorn leaf extract has become a representative of sustainable skincare due to its “recyclable” raw material attribute. In addition, innovative ingredients such as photolyase and supramolecular collagen peptide complexes have broken traditional efficacy boundaries through genetic recombination and supramolecular technology, driving the upgrading of ingredient-conscious consumption.
