Proposal Accepted

I notice you don't have any headings or subheadings for tools, which you might consider adding. Other than that, looks like a solid outline!

1. Overview
Cosmetology is the process of beautifying the face, skin, hair, and nails through the use of cosmetology equipment, called cosmetics. Although most commonly thought of as a wealthy women's skill, used only for the purpose of flirtation or seduction, cosmetology can be used by a variety of peoples for multiple reasons, including those who use cosmetology for beautification, but also disguise, impersonation, busking, and body art.

1.1 Related Skills
Cosmetology has no prerequisites, but it does have a few related skills that may enhance the use of the skill.
1.1.1 Philtering
Philtering is the skill of mixing and brewing potions, which is useful to cosmetologists in that they can create new cosmetics, such as perfumes or lotions, for a lower price.
1.1.2 Massage
Massage is the ancient study and skills of various forms of which help to heal, relax, and realign the physical body in ways that some modern medicine is incapable of doing. Although not necessarily helpful to a cosmetologist, many practitioners of massage use cosmetology in their work, as lotions and cremes may aid the body in relaxation and ease the process of massage.
