Abstract
As numerosas escavações que temos dirigido de contextos islâmicos no sul de Portugal, designadamente em Silves, ofereceram, entre muito outro espólio, conjunto artefactual tipologicamente diversificado, que podemos relacionar com a cosmética. Entendemos esta como actividade que usa objectos e produtos destinados não só ao embelezamento, como à conservação e protecção do corpo, nomeadamente no caso dos humanos, da pele, cabelo, olhos, dentes, etc… A cosmética tem existência próxima da medicina e, sobretudo, da farmácia.

We understand this as an activity that uses objects and products intended not only for beautifier, but also for the conservation and protection of the body, namely in the case of humans, skin, hair, eyes, teeth, etc. Cosmetics has a close existence to medicine and, especially, to the pharmacy
