What Is Skin and Beauty

The skin does a lot for the body – it acts as a barrier to infection, insulates the body, and plays a critical role in the ability to sense the environment. Taking care of your skin is essential in order to help you look and feel your best. People across the world put a great deal of time and effort into skin care. The global skin care market was estimated to be worth 100 billion US dollars in 2014.

In addition to skin care, beauty products can help people look and feel their best. The cosmetic and beauty industry grosses over $50 billion dollars each year in the US alone, and has been growing in recent years.

Cosmetic procedures are also a growing part of the beauty routines of many Americans. Procedures range from skin-smoothing injections to body and facial reconstruction. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over 15 million cosmetic procedures were performed in 2013, and that number is expected to grow.
