GENERALIZATION OF LIPSTICK MAKING:

Everyone will probably likes and enthusiastic to know on how to make lipstick using natural materials particularly women out there. When we say lipstick it is a cosmetic product that embellishes the lips, changing their natural colour. Therefore this experiment we conducted was really suit and alternative for all the girls that are really fond of using lipsticks. As well as to help reduce their budget to solely buy any kinds of lipstick they want.

The only ingredients we need are petroleum jelly, water, palm oil, and different colours of crayons that are non toxic which is safe to prevent any harm to our lips and of course to make us beautiful naturally especially to make our lips more glossy, matte or balm-like. We can have any colour it depends on what we want.  Just be wise to choose crayons that are free from toxic. And also, follow carefully the methods or steps on how to make it so that it will end up very well and amazing. If you don’t have any materials like alcohol lamp, tripod, wire gauze, stirring pod, and beaker to melt the colour of the crayon, we can use pan that are available in our house but make sure it will not burn. Hence we can also use unwrap paper to place over the pan so that it will not burn and have just a medium heat. And then, while it melting combines all the ingredients needed such as the petroleum jelly and a few drop of palm oil then stir it. After that, use an old lipstick to pour the hot liquid, then place it in the cold temperature and let the lipstick harden.

And that’s it. It feels so great to learn how to make our own lipstick especially if we are just in our home and we don’t enough money to buy a new lipstick, so this is the solution, anytime we can make and choose colour of our lipstick we want particularly when we want to go out or to hang out with our friends. Thus, you can try it also in your home for less cost you can make your lipstick you want.

GENERALIZATION OF SOAP MAKING:

Soaps are cleaning agents that are usually made by reacting alkali; example is sodium hydroxide with naturally occurring fat or fatty acids. The reaction produces sodium salts of these fatty acids, which improve the cleaning process by making water better able to lift away greasy stains from skin, hair, clothes, and just about anything else. As a substance that has helped clean bodies as well as possessions, soap has been remarkably useful.

In soap making it is important to know the process on how to make it in order the outcome of your own soap will be successfully good. You can combine any natural ingredients such as carrots, lemons, papaya, pineapple or anything you want to mix on the soap that you’re going to make. Make it sure that the weight of the ingredients that is needed to combine is properly. And also the temperature should have at least 95-98 degrees Fahrenheit or 35-36 degree Celsius. The common ingredients of making soap are coconut oil, water, lye or sodium hydroxide and of course the natural ingredients you want to combine.

Warning when mixing chemicals like lye with water, always add the chemical to the water, and not the water to the chemical in order to reduce the risk of the chemical splashing up and out. Lye (Sodium Hydroxide) is a harsh base and can be extremely dangerous. Avoid skin and eye contact. If you get skin contact, flush with water (after flushing with water you can add vinegar to help neutralize the burn) and seek medical attention. If you get eye contact, flush with cool water for 15-20 minutes and seek medical attention. Use an eye wash center or eye flush bottles if available. If swallowed, contact a poison control center. After the soap has set in a mold, if there are small white lumps in the soap, the soap is caustic and must be disposed of safely. The white lumps are lye. Tools that are used for soap-making must only be used for soap-making. Do not reuse them in the kitchen or around food. Be cautious when using wooden implements since they are porous and can suffer splintering when used repeatedly for soap-making. Do not use whisks since they have many places caustic substance can get stuck and linger. Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles when working with lye. Do not leave lye in reach of children and animals. Lye can be found in the plumbing section of most hardware stores or purchased online. Make sure the package says it is 100% sodium hydroxide. Temperature is crucial when mixing the oils with the lye. If they are too hot, they will separate; if they are too cool, they won't turn into soap. Don't use perfume as a fragrance, especially if it contains alcohol. It will alter the chemical reaction that's taking place between the lye and the fats, and will cause your soap to fail. You can use natural essential oils or fragrances that are specifically manufactured for use in soaps. A little bit of essential oil or fragrance goes a long way. You may only need a teaspoon or so.
