For this purpose, an in-depth semi-structured interview was conducted among 35 young female students in Tehran. the sample of study was chosen by theoretical sampling model and the interviews were continued up to the point of gaining theoretical saturation.After extracting the basic, secondary and intermediate concepts, the three main categories were defined as: general areas of beauty and signs, makeup and consumption, and mediaand the need for beauty and make-up. The results of this study indicate that makeup is defined as an important activity for young girls. Beauty and makeup are intertwined with people's life plans and are regulated by them; that is, the amount and manner of makeup of female students changes with their understanding of the culture of different environments, types and gender of the audience, the level of communication and type of activity. It can be stated that makeup allows girls to have multiple social relationships. In analyzing and interpreting the interviews, a wide range of reasons, such as increasing social capital, coercion or group ambiguity, building a new and self-identifying identity, and increasing self-confidence were identified for the explaination of why makeup is used.

Perhaps people are exposed to music more than other artistic works in their daily lives. Due to the necessity of considering music as a part of human identity, we tried to study the amount of music used by young people in Zanjan based on four hypothesis: cultural lifestyle, satisfaction of needs, factors of sociability, and individual factors as important factors in usage of various types of music. The research community is young people of Zanajn province. Based on Kokaran Formula a sample consisting 310 people was obtained and questionnaires were distributed accidentally in 3 areas of the city (uptown area, city center, downtown). According to the results of the research, we can conclude that among individual factors, married people regarding marital status, employed people in private sector regarding the employment, those who own a house in uptown regarding the house ownership had more tendency toward music and, among independent factors (lifestyle, satisfaction of needs, factors of sociability), the highest correlation was related to the satisfaction of needs and then sociability and lifestyle. As it is demonstrated by the descriptive factors of the research that the most tendency was toward traditional music and the least tendency was toward rock music. Manuscript profile -
