With spending of over $1 billion (in 1945) on cosmetic products, it has evolved into a major commercial enterprise.

Part of the March of Time series, this episode (Volume 11, Number 11) focuses on a new sociological phenomenon - the teen-age girl. She is recognized as unique, with a mind of her own and not necessarily prone to following in her mother's foot-steps. Industry now recognizes this sector of society as a potentially lucrative market, the result being that magazines, beauty products and clothes are all being designed with the teen-age girl in mind. New music is central to their activities, and there is also an increasing demand for photogenic teen-agers as models.

The film's midsection details the arduous training procedure of the Few and the Proud at Parris Island and elsewhere. Finally, wartime newsreel footage is adroitly blended with dramatized re-enactments to illustrate the contributions - and the utter necessity-of the marines in WW II.
