A search for a definition of "cosmetics" will give you:
"...articles intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied to the human body or any part thereof for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance..."
We, of course, know they're much more than that. Whether we're talking about a plain bar of soap, a pot of lipgloss from the local drugstore, or a five hundred dollar jar of face cream, cosmetics can be very powerful tools: they help us take care of ourselves, enhancing our appearance and consequently our very self-esteem.
