英國一家美容護膚品零售網(wǎng)站對女性消費者的一項調查結果顯示,女士們在浴室櫥柜中收藏的美容護膚品價值平均約為1964英鎊(約合人民幣18625元),大概有65個瓶瓶罐罐,但這當中只有不到六分之一是她們經(jīng)常使用的,另外還有五分之一的產(chǎn)品從未打開過。調查發(fā)現(xiàn),女士們每天都會使用的護膚品有11件,但大部分女士仍然不愿意將那些未開封的護膚品丟棄,因為她們怕“某些特殊場合會用到這些產(chǎn)品”。另外,有超過十分之一的女士表示每個月至少會買一件自己并不需要的護膚品。受調查的大部分女士都表示每年會清理一次浴室櫥柜,有八分之一表示只有在搬家時才會清理,而有四分之一的女士會將未開封的產(chǎn)品收藏達三年之久。
One in eight had spent even more on their beauty collection, with nearly £3,000 worth of products stockpiled in their bathroom cabinets. |
Aside from your house and your car, ladies, what’s your most valuable possession? Your television? A laptop? Your engagement ring?
Believe it or not, it might just be your bathroom cabinet. Because the average woman has £1,964.30 worth of beauty products hidden away inside it.
That works out as 65 different jars, tubes and bottles, each worth £30.22 on average.
But less than a sixth of these – £327 worth – are used regularly, with the women surveyed admitting a fifth of their stash had never even been opened.
Instead, they rely on the same 11 products each day. But they said they couldn’t bring themselves to throw out the unopened products – worth around £200 – in case they were needed for a special occasion. One in eight had spent even more on their beauty collection, with nearly £3,000 worth of products stockpiled in their bathroom cabinets.
And 3 percent had almost three times the average, confessing that the contents of their bathroom cabinet were worth more than £5,000.
Some of that will have been sitting in the cupboard for years. While most women said they cleared out their bathroom cabinet each year, one in eight admitted they only do it when they move house, and a quarter kept products for up to three years.
And their collections keep on growing. More than one in ten women confessed to buying a beauty product they didn’t need at least once a month.
The survey, of 500 women, was carried out by beauty retailer escentual.com.
