Literature Review
Problem: Bleaching the skin using dangerous chemicals such as hydroquinone. These products have been banned because they are very bad for the skin. Their side effects are none that one may wish for.
Solution: We will create skin bleaching products made from natural products such as lemon. These products will not have extra acids added to them meaning they are pure for the skin. The first product will consist of pimple preventing products such as lemon. This product will eliminate pimples from the core because when pimples die out they leave dark marks behind that cause hyperpigmentation. The second product will lighten the skin. All these products will be tested on a skin model made from Jell-O and other products. These products will be also tested on Jell-O skin model to see that these products can eliminate hyperpigmentation and also keep the skin moist at the same time.

Science behind
Making this product will include using science apparatus such as dropper pipet and beakers. Making the skin model, one will need to be very accurate when it comes to measuring. Exothermic reactions will be included in the procedure e. g when the Jell-O is refrigerated, the little bit of heat that it has will be absorbed by the refrigerator’s cool air. Endothermic reactions will be included e. g when water is boiled. The water will take in the heat from the kettle and the state of it will change from cold to hot.
This whole experiment is linked to science as reaction against the Jell-O will take place, either changing the Jell-O’s original color or keeping it moist. Both may happen at the same time.
