Regarding the result on mental health of customers who use skin care, the customers with the better healthy condition in skin led to indicating the better mental health, thereby having shown the significant difference(F=17.09, p<.001). By satisfaction with skin, the customers with the higher satisfaction at skin led to indicating the better mental health, thereby having shown the significant difference(F=30.23, p<.001). By term in special skin care, the customers with the longer-term skin care led to indicating the better mental health, thereby having shown the significant difference(F=23.02, p<.001). The customers with the more use in skin care room for the recent 6 months led to indicating the better mental health, thereby having shown the significant difference(F=15.07, p<.001). Regarding the results of self-esteem according to satisfaction with skin in customers of using skin care, the customers with the higher satisfaction at skin led to being higher, and showed the statistically significant difference(F=16.74, p<.001). Regarding term, the whole self-esteem was higher in the customers with the longer-term special skin care, and showed the statistically significant difference(F=10.12, p<.001). These findings can be known that the skin care is effective for promoting mental health and enhancing self-esteem.
