Cosmetic

Cosmetics, also known as make-up, are substances or products used to enhance the appearance or scent of the body.

Many cosmetics are designed for use on the face and hair.

In the 21st century, women generally use more cosmetics than men. They are generally mixtures of chemical compounds, some being derived from natural sources (such as coconut oil) and some being synthetics. Common cosmetics include lipstick, mascara, eyeshadow, foundation, rouge, skin cleansers and skin lotions, shampoo, hairstyling products (gel, hair spray, etc.), perfume and cologne.
