British Beauty Council are fascinated to read in The Guardian a story about an apparent backlash against makeup in Korea – beauty’s new horizon.
While there are no actual statistics to show a decline in sales of cosmetics, anecdotal evidence suggests this backlash is starting to hit bottom lines.

The movement is also being reflected in the way some women dress.
