In a study conducted by scientists from Saitama Gakuen University in Kawaguchi (Japan), it was proven that nail care, manicure, and makeup have a beneficial effect on the psychological state of women.
In order to make this conclusion, experts interviewed 500 women aged 20 to 30 years from different social groups. At the same time, survey participants were asked to indicate age, marital status, income level and expenses on cosmetics. They were also asked about their beauty routine habits. This is described in the “MIR 24” report with reference to the publication of Frontiers in Psychology.
Women reported that these treatments gave them positive emotions, they felt relaxed and invigorated. The procedures in salons turned out to be the most favorable - they brought more pronounced positive emotions than cosmetic care at home.
Scientists note that recently more and more research has appeared on the impact of self-care practices on mental well-being. According to them, even such simple procedures as a manicure can have a significant beneficial effect.
