With an ambitious roadmap ahead, 2025 is set to be a pivotal year for IL Cosmetics as it accelerates its diversification and global expansion. The company is set to launch its first cosmetic powders and liquid foundations, solidifying its expertise beyond its historic nail polish business. A second makeup production plant in Luxembourg will soon be operational, doubling production capacity across Italy and Luxembourg by the end of 2025. The Group’s total production capacity will reach 7,500 tons, the equivalent of 750 million units, with an internal filling capacity of 250 million units.
These investments are part of a long-term vision to strengthen IL Cosmetics’ global footprint, particularly in key markets such as the U.S. and the Middle East. After closing 2023 with EUR 130 million in revenue, the company is reinforcing its business structure to support its ambitions, with the goal of reaching EUR 200 million by 2030.
This commitment to expansion is matched by IL Cosmetics’ relentless drive for innovation. At Cosmoprof Bologna 2025, the company will unveil a groundbreaking gel polish technology that promises to redefine at-home nail manicure. Unlike traditional UV gel polishes, with removal requiring soaking in acetone, IL Cosmetics’ latest innovation introduces a patent-pending soak-off gel polish that can be removed effortlessly with just warm soapy water and natural oil. This revolutionary development makes gel polish removal safer, easier, and more accessible to retail consumers, setting a new industry standard.
For decades, gel polishes have been popular for their long-lasting, glossy finish, but their removal process has always been burdensome and damaging to nails. This method not only preserves the health of nails but is also entirely retail-user compliant, making it suitable for at-home use. “We believe this technology will be a game-changer for both consumers and professionals,” says Aurélie Ignaccolo, Marketing Director. “The ease of removal is going to completely transform the gel polish experience, offering a solution that’s both effective and healthy.”
IL Cosmetics continues to push the boundaries of cosmetic technology, investing in both product development and production capabilities to maintain its leadership in the global beauty market. With the unveiling of its innovative soak-off gel polish, the company is once again proving that the future of beauty lies in smarter, healthier, and more user-friendly solutions.
Along with this innovative product, IL Cosmetics is unveiling an impressive range of new products at Cosmopack 2025, including their brand-new powders. The company will also present innovative nail care products, ultra gel-like polishes and a variety of mascaras including volumizing and waterproof options along with colorful tubing mascaras. For lips, the new hybrid glosses combine color, care and comfort in one unique formula. These innovations mark just the beginning as IL Cosmetics continues to build its reputation as a diversified global leader with a strong presence in Europe.
