,CMNS110 Final essay


According to the FDA, a cosmetic is a product that is used to cleanse, beautify,

young women are enjoying the benefits of makeup. However, this is also causing


various problems in capitalist societies. By promoting standards of beauty on social


media, it has influenced the culture of young women's understanding of beauty. In this


essay, in the context of the history of mass production of cosmetics and the rise of


social media, I will discuss how cosmetics affect individual self-esteem, social


performance, and the cultural impact on social media of young women.




History: Mass produced makeup with the rise of social media in 2000s to recent

In terms of makeup, it includes different products such as lipstick, foundations,


primers, setting powders, and concealers, etc. From the revenue of the cosmetics


market worldwide from 2013 to 2026 (2022), in 2021, the revenue of the global


cosmetics market increased by over eight billion dollars to 80.74 billion U.S. dollars.


The market and popularity of makeup are high among young women. While mass


production of makeup products is common, young women have more ways to
