Cosmetic Chemistry Project
In this project we learned how to make soap and use the chemistry behind it to explain how. We also learned about marketing and packaging our products because we were going to sell them at exhibition so we needed to learn what was attractive to certain demographics. We were required to make three products, one being soap and the other two was our choice. Fortunately, I had Heather in my group so we ended up with four products: soap, perfume, sugar scrub, and lip balm.
My favorite part of the project was the marketing and packaging part because I like to dress things up and to be able to do that in school really excited. I also enjoyed making the lip balm because I worked most with that product and I think it is really fascinating that we only used three ingredients to make it. Our biggest success, product wise, would be the sugar scrub because everyone wanted some. For example, about ten minutes before exhibition started, one of Heather's friends asked if he could use some more of the scrub. We also sold all but one of the sugar scrubs. During this project I learned to choose people that have similar opinions as me concerning the topic so that we get along easily. I also learned about my creative naming skills and my high interest in making things more attractive!
