THE BEAUTY INDUSTR by Aldous Huxley

• The Beauty Industry English Modern Essays Notes In Pdf

Humor means the quality of being funny and Irony means the difference between what is expected and what occurs or is meant. The essay abounds in humor and irony from the first page to the last one. When he says that the annual expense of one hundred and fifty-six million is

‘a tidy sum’, 

He is being ironic and humorous at the same time. Using the phrase

‘The cult of beauty, 

the writer refers to extreme devotion to a religious system. Again, Huxley has humorously given beauty the status of a cult. Further, he says,

‘The crone of the future will be golden’. 

The Beauty Industry Quotes English Modern Essays Notes

Women will be cherry-lipped, neat ankles, and slender. It is humorous to describe that the old women of the future will be young-looking. When he says,

‘The hardness and deadness are from within’, 

The description is full of humor. The writer states that the hardness and deadness of the faces are reflecting spiritual disharmony. Only spiritual contentment can give the face real beauty. Further, he uses

‘Preservation of the appearance’. 

It is ironic to say that appearance can be preserved. Beauty and physical charm are short-lived. The expressions like

‘Sullen boredom stamped into the fresh faces’

are most humorous and ironical. Fresh faces indicate artificiality whereas sullen boredom suggests reality beneath the beautiful. Real beauty cannot be achieved without inner satisfaction. Thus, the essay is highly humorous and ironic.

A Single Multi-Answer For The Beauty Industry All Important Questions
(You can write this answer for every Question about The Beauty Industry Modern Essay)

The cause is clear as today women are nervous to keep their youthful appearance at a growing age. “The merely physical beauty is no more considered evil. The Present generation demands justice for the body” and “We have not come to admit that the body has its rights”.   

It is really hard to find an ugly woman or grandmother with white hair, a wrinkled face, hollow cheeks, and a bent back. But face powders, skin creams, and lipsticks cannot hide the ugliness of stupidity, the ugliness of greed, the ugliness of ignorance, the ugliness of sex, the ugliness of immorality. Vice is ugliness which is still there. So, it is both a tremendous success and a lamentable failure.   

The writer says ironically and humorously: ‘Still, one hundred and fifty-six million pounds a year is a tidy sum. Rather more than twice the revenue of India, If I remember rightly’. And ‘they have the right, if not to be less virtuous than their grandmothers, at any rate, to look less virtuous’ and ‘Whitewashed and riddled, they seem to be wearing masks. One must look closely to discover the soft and living face beneath’.

[Conclusion] According to Huxley beauty has no relation with make-up. Man is not like a China Jar which may be very beautiful from the outside and dirty from the inside – full of vices. He concludes that good contents of mind and soul make the man mass beautiful.
