Cosmetics<br />

Cosmetics like powder, facial cream, shops etc have entered <strong>the</strong> rural household consumption<br />

basket. On an average, a APL household in 2007 expended Rs.561 while a BPL household<br />

expended Rs.331 (BLS 2007) (table 3.36). In 2001, <strong>the</strong>se expenses were higher for APL<br />

households. Baran, Dholpur and Rajsamand observed an increase in expenditure on cosmetics<br />

for APL households, while in case <strong>of</strong> BPL households, Baran, Dholpur and Rajsamand<br />

observed an increase in expenditure. But <strong>the</strong>se increases have been more than double <strong>the</strong> APL<br />

changes.<br />
