VOGUE
It took a pandemic to help us truly appreciate the mood-boosting power of beauty. From face masks to mascara, products have been a constant companion – one with the power to make us smile in a year when there wasn't much in the way of positivity to hold on to. While some of us enjoyed the ritualistic nature of an evening skin care routine or a steamy bath filled with all manner of potions. Beauty's power to uplift is nothing new. While sales of color cosmetics are down in the COVID era, skin care has seen a huge boost, with many retailers reporting that sales in the category have more than doubled.
