Ranking of the most popular skin cream brands in Germany 2017-2020

Published by Statista Research Department, Dec 13, 2022
The most popular skin cream in Germany was produced by Nivea, a German brand for personal care with a far-reaching history and international fame. Other leading names included Balea and Dove. As is evidenced by the ranking, the German skincare market is represented by many brands.

Serious skincare

German consumers take their skincare seriously, investing research, time and money into picking products. Considering that the German market offers a wide selection of skincare brands made in Germany itself, product interest and sales may be additionally boosted by consumer trust. Several established and thriving drugstore chains also offer easy access to affordable skincare.

Skin deep

Selecting body care and cosmetics products is something consumers base on quite a few criteria, among them scent and quality, as well as skin compatibility. Aside from a few fluctuations, revenue from skin and facial care products in Germany has generally remained stable over the last few years. It looks to be a thick-skinned market, well positioned to continue with stable sales in the 2020s.
