The objective was to assess the variables related to the usage of cosmetic products among a representative sample of the Lebanese population, including self-perception, facial attractiveness satisfaction, body image, and self-esteem. This is a cross-sectional study, conducted between January 2018 and June 2018, which enrolled 2,072 female participants using a proportionate random sample from all Lebanese Mohafazat. The results of a linear regression, taking the customary cosmetic usage score as the dependent variable, showed that an increase in the self-esteem score (β = -0.21) and being of Muslim religion compared with Christianity (β = -1.39) were significantly associated with lower cosmetic usage score. On another hand, an increase in the appearance orientation (AO) score (β = 0.55) and having a high (β = 2.18) and an intermediate (β = 0.99) socioeconomic status compared with a low one were associated with a higher cosmetic usage score respectively. According to our study, the use of cosmetic products by Lebanese women is associated with many factors such as AO, self-esteem, socioeconomic status, religion, and marital status. These results can open a window to other studies that might consider the relationship between personality traits, depression, and anxiety with the frequency of makeup use.
目的是评估黎巴嫩人群代表性样本中与化妆品使用相关的变量，包括自我认知、对面部吸引力的满意度、身体形象和自尊。这是一项横断面研究，于2018年1月至2018年6月进行，使用来自黎巴嫩所有省份的按比例随机样本，招募了2072名女性参与者。以常规化妆品使用分数作为因变量的线性回归结果显示，自尊分数的增加（β = -0.21）以及与基督教相比为穆斯林宗教信仰（β = -1.39）与较低的化妆品使用分数显著相关。另一方面，外貌取向（AO）分数的增加（β = 0.55）以及与低社会经济地位相比具有高（β = 2.18）和中等（β = 0.99）社会经济地位分别与较高的化妆品使用分数相关。根据我们的研究，黎巴嫩女性使用化妆品与许多因素有关，如AO、自尊、社会经济地位、宗教和婚姻状况。这些结果可以为其他可能考虑人格特质、抑郁和焦虑与化妆使用频率之间关系的研究打开一扇窗。
