Abstract
Currently, cosmetics products are closely related with daily living for women. Japan has a rapidly aging population in recent years. Changes in daily living for the elderly are induced by various factors (such as a health condition, a living environment, an old-age lifestyle etc.). International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is known as a tool for assessment of daily living. This review describes modification of cosmetic behavior and activity of daily living by cosmetic therapy in terms of ICF for the elderly women.
