Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The verb 'deal' takes different prepositions depending on the context:
1. Deal in: to buy and sell something as a business or trade (e.g., He deals in cosmetics).
2. Deal with: to take action on something, handle a situation, or do business with a person/organization (e.g., She deals with difficult customers).

Since the sentence mentions "cosmetic goods" (items of trade/business), the correct preposition to use is in.
