I've never heard anyone refer to a hg as "Cosmetic", unless they're referring to the Cometic gasket and they spelled it incorrectly.

cos·met·ic /k?zˈmetik/
Adjective: Involving or relating to treatment intended to restore or improve a person's appearance.
Noun: A product applied to the body, esp. the face, to improve its appearance.


So, in a nutshell, "Cosmetic" does not refer to a non-metal hg
