| Summary |
The POLA Research Institute of Beauty & Culture was established in 1976 to engage in research into beauty and, in particular, multifaceted investigations into “cosmetic culture” through the lenses of humanities and the social sciences. The Institute conducts research into the lifestyles and makeup-related attitudes/behavior of contemporary women and makes the reports of such research publicly available through the POLA Cosmetic Culture Information Center and its website. This survey, which started in 2007, is a fixed-point survey on makeup and is the POLA Research Institute of Beauty & Culture’s fundamental survey. In a continuation of the previous year’s survey, this survey targets 1,800 women, delineating their state of awareness regarding skincare and makeup and their beauty-related behavior. It also conducts a detailed investigation and analysis of lipstick purchase channels, the price of lipsticks, etc. |
