Résumé : |
The term "multicultural" describes a mixture of several different cultures, a combination of origin, socialisation, colour types, values and social norms and actual cultural expressions such as language, music and art. In history, skin colour has been associated with a culture or race. Today we know that there are no different races, but that the human skin exists in different colour shades.
With the help of evolutionary research, pigmentation and solar radiation, this article explains important aspects of developing multiculturally oriented cosmetics.
The main reason for the development of dark pigmented skin was the need for protection against solar radiation to prevent folic acid deficiency. The range of pigmentation that can be observed in modem humans today is the product of two opposing tendencies. Dark skin provides sun protection in the vicinity of the equator, while fair skin allows better vitamin D synthesis in regions with lower sun intensity. The article describes other differences accompanying darker or lighter pigmentation, biochemical mechanisms that play a role and skin diseases that occur more or less frequently, For skin care in different geographical regions, climate, UV radiation and the respective sense of beauty in those regions play a role. |
