探討流行、潮流趨勢的發展，先從化妝品的歷史先說起，讓我們回溯過去千百年，看看存放著人們在追求美時所用到的器物的梳?檯上，經歷過怎樣從無到有的更迭蛻變。他們又是如何在對鏡梳妝時、拿起放下間創造出絕代風華。而盛極一時的潮流難逃被一一替代的結果，再好的化妝品也會變質腐壞，連人的容貌也難逃「色衰而愛馳」的考驗。凡此種種，唯獨這裡面包含著的對美的追求將永不褪色。即使歷史不斷向前，那些創造美的歷程依舊值得我們深情凝望。 流行趨勢的存在價值遠不是因為它能夠成就大多數人的美貌，而是它能夠在我們清楚地瞭解到我們自身的容貌後，為我們能夠更好地揚長避短提供更多參考借鑒，讓我們大多數人都了然哪一點是適合自己才是最好的。在這種情況下，我們能夠清楚地認知辨識自己的容貌顯得尤為關鍵。其中，關於化妝品與膚色兩者間的契合度的討論成為了這本書研究的課題。 被濾鏡裹挾的審美，讓人們在千百年中，對尋找完美的妝容，孜孜不倦。
