Medical: Health Care
Spanish term or phrase: CUIDADO Y ESTÉTICA
(possible one that the ladies will be more likely to answer...!)

This is a market research document on the beauty market, and the phrase above is used many times... I wanted to check whether it should be literally, "care and aesthetics" or (my best choice) "care and beauty"... or something else?

Examples:

"SE DETECTAN DIFERENTES ACTITUDES ENTORNO A CUIDADO Y ESTÉTICA"
"ACTITUD HACIA EL CUIDADO"
"VIVENCIA CONFLICTIVA DEL CUIDADO PERSONAL Y LA ESTÉTICA"

Many thanks!

Explanation:
You have answered your own question, really. Definitely not aesthetics. I might be tempted to add personal to both your above examples in English even though it's not there in Spanish.
