Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest Muslim population in the world, surpassing Pakistan and India. According to Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) data, as of December 31  2021, Indonesia’s Muslim population was 237.53 million, 86.9% of the total majority population of Indonesia.

In recent years, the increasing religious awareness of young Muslim consumers and the growing Muslim population around the world have led to an increasing trend of using Halal products all over the world. The Indonesian middle class now have very high purchasing power, especially in the cosmetics sector, and play an important role in influencing modern Indonesian society. It’s no wonder Indonesia is one of the countries with the highest consumption of Halal products in the world.

About Halal cosmetics in Indonesia.

Halal cosmetics have existed in Indonesia since 1995, starting with the brand Wardah which has been a pioneer of Halal cosmetics in Indonesia since. Wardah raised the initial awareness to Halal cosmetics, but it did not become mainstream until 2014.

Halal product regulation was started in 2014 by the Indonesian government and cosmetic products were affected domestically and those coming from overseas. To be Halal, the ingredient of their raw materials to finished products must follow Islamic law. This meant it must not contain ingredients derived from pigs, blood, human body parts, predatory animals and reptiles, and must comply sharia in accordance with the recommendations of The Institute of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI).
