Cosmetics ( pronunciation: cosmetic (help·info)) are substances used to enhance or protect 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 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 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. From Wikipedia under the

I am a lightskinned black woman and I have a hard time finding cosmetics in drugstores that are the right skin tone. Either they are too light or too dark. There seems to be no in between. I can't afford the higher end products all the time(department stores) can anyone help? Asked by Redbone - Fri Jan 12 17:28:24 2007 - - 10 Answers - 0 Comments A. go to mac. it has the greatest range of shades and you can try it. that is the main problem with drugstore brands. i suggest mac since it is not too expensive, it works very well and has a the greatest range of colours and products. here are some ways to save money: use a wet sponge to apply your foundation. you will use less, gives good coverage (if you get a full coverage foundation), and give a very smooth and natural looking skin. use a loose powder with a big face brush. it lasts forever...much longer than the compact and gives a great natural look. buy drugstore lipsticks, eyeshadows, liners, etc. i do suggest buying a good blush though as it has to match you and you should be able to try it on. drug store lines i like: … [cont.] Answered by illybubs - Fri Jan 12 19:53:53 2007 Where can i find good cosmetics in Morocco? Q. I'm in Fez. I need high quality cosmetics. At home i wear bobbi brown, but lancome or l'oreal or something like that would be fine too. friends suggest taking the train to Rabat. Can cosmetics be found there? Is there any way to find them without leaving fez? Asked by lb - Thu Apr 26 21:14:34 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. There's a shop in Meknes called "Bib et Bab" on Rue de Paris which carries Chanel, Lancome, and even Clinique. It's only an hour away by train. Rabat has plenty of places which sell upscale cosmetics - there's one I know across from the train station (a parfumerie), and there's a fancy shop inside the new Mega Mall, on the third floor, which carries everything (well, only French brands, but the best ones!) You can probably find them in Fez. Have you looked in the ville nouvelle? Look for a "parfumerie," they typically carry upscale cosmetics. You may also want to try the Marjane superstore - they definitely have Maybelline/Gemey and L'Oreal, and there might be a cosmetics store inside of the superstore.
