Did you know that science is involved in making many of the products we use for self-care (makeup, bubble bath, nail polish, etc.)? Scientists have to know how different ingredients work together to make a product that does its job well. It is all a part of cosmetics chemistry!💅💄 In this class, we will get to practice this type of science and we will get to practice self-care! It's a win-win! 👏 Each week, we will make one project and learn about why and how the ingredients work together....
I have a love for all things beauty related. And I enjoy finding ways of making something special to enjoy rather than having to go spend the money in the stores. Through my own learning, I have developed an interest in understanding ingredients and their benefits.

It is important to note that even though these are homemade products, there is still a possibility of an allergic reaction. If you know of an allergy to any of these ingredients for your learner, please reach out to see if there is a substitute or if it would be best to just omit that ingredient entirely.
