Cosmetics are substances used to enhance the appearance or odor of the human body. Cosmetics include skin-care creams, lotions, powders, perfumes, lipsticks, fingernail and toe nail polish, eye and facial makeup, permanent waves, colored contact lenses, hair colors, [hair sprays] [3]and gels, deodorants, baby products, bath oils, bubble baths, bath salts, butters and many other types of products. Their use is widespread, especially among women in Western countries. A subset of cosmetics is called "make-up," which refers primarily to colored products intended to alter the user’s appearance. Many manufacturers distinguish between decorative cosmetics and care cosmetics.

The manufacture of cosmetics is currently dominated by a small number of multinational corporations that originated in the early 20th century, but the distribution and sale of cosmetics is spread among a wide range of different businesses. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which regulates cosmetics in the United States[1] defines cosmetics as "intended to be applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance without affecting the body's structure or functions." This broad definition includes, as well, any material intended for use as a component of a cosmetic product. The FDA specifically excludes soap from this category.[2]

The first archaeological evidence of cosmetics usage is found in Egypt around 3500 BC during the Ancient Egypt times with some of the royalty having make up such as Nefertiti, Nefertari, mask of Tutankhamun, etc. The Ancient Greeks and Romans[citation needed] also used cosmetics. The Romans and Ancient Egyptians used cosmetics containing poisonous mercury and often lead. The ancient kingdom of Israel was influenced by cosmetics as recorded in the Old Testament—2 Kings 930 where Jezebel painted her eyelids—approximately 840 BC. The Biblical book of Esther describes various beauty treatments as well.

In the western world, the advent of cosmetics was in the Middle Ages, although typically restricted to use within the upper classes, yet frowned upon and banned by the Church.

13. Fragrance - Is It Natural?
November 16, 2009

95% of chemicals used in fragrances are synthetic compounds derived from petroleum. It has been estimated that more than 3000 different chemm cials are used in fragrance production. Do these figures shock you? Yes, manufacturers are very clever – we see the packaging and the adverts showing flowers and nature, and we assume (as the manufacturer intends us to assume) that the fragrance in the product is derived from nature, but most fragrances are chemically derived. They do not use essential oils because they are too expensive. They do use synthetic chemicals because they are cheap. We a... (read more)

14. You Can Get Rid Of Lines On The Forehead - You just Need To Know What Ingredients To Look For
November 16, 2009

The reason that it is so hard for you to get rid of lines on the forehead is that there is virtually nothing out there that has the ingredients necessary for removing wrinkles. The cosmetics companies earn billions of dollars each year for their anti wrinkle formulas and the majority of them don’t deserve a penny of this money. The products they are selling are simply useless. The first thing that I would point to that clearly illustrates how little these companies creams and lotions have to offer you is the wrinkle reducing compounds that they use. Almost every of the anti wrinkle form... (read more)

November 16, 2009

How do collagen and elastin work on the skin when they are used as ingredients in a topical formula? The fact is that it is impossible for you to get any results from the use of such a treatment, because the collagen and elastin proteins used as ingredients in these formulas are too molecularly dense to penetrate your skin. So, why do the vast majority of the cosmetics companies sell these formulas?The truth is that the cosmetics industry originally began developing these formulas as a way to try and get a cut of the money that was being spent on clinical procedures to reduce wrinkles.

The best moisturizer oil grows naturally in the ground; it is not something that man could ever create.

The very best moisturizer for very dry skin comes from nature, in the form of any number of various plant oils and waxes. Unfortunately, you won't find any of these natural components present in the vast majority of the skin care products being made available.

The cosmetics industry keeps telling us that they have the answers we are looking for, but anyone who has tried these anti aging formulas know that they do not work.These companies would have us believe that the addition of collagen and elastin through the skin will not only add needed tissue, but will somehow cause the growth of new tissue as well.

23. What is the Best Moisturizer For Face?
November 16, 2009

I have to advise you that if you are looking for the absolute best moisturizer for face, then you probably are not going to find it among all of the skin care formulas in your local department or drug store cosmetics center. I feel that I can confidently say this, because those places are typically the "Land of the Big Cosmetics Companies". Most of their products are not worth the money you pay for them.Despite the billions of dollars in profits the major cosmetic companies bring in each year, the products they manufacture have little in them of any real value.

November 16, 2009

If there was a wrinkle reduction formula that contained the precise ingredients that you need in order to rid yourself of the signs of aging skin, would you recognize it if you saw it? Nine times out of ten the answer would be no, and that is based on the fact that there are so many people that lack the fundamental knowledge necessary to allow them to choose an effective anti aging product.This is the main reason that the cosmetics industry has had the ability to run roughshod over consumers.
