Our teacher in Chemistry told us to think about a kind of Investigatory Project that would help people know about new discoveries that will serve as a big benefit for them. I have come up with the idea of making a useful soap out form a guava plant for people who are prone to acne and other skin problem. Here is the short overview of my study:
Background of the Study
It has been viewed that nowadays people are focusing in herbal plants for natural treatment of any forms of health problems. One of the examples is the guava plant (Psidium Guava Linn). Based on research this plant is good for healing and treating wounds and other skin infections especially acne. For this main reason, the group wants to make soap out of it for we know that it is very effective. Our study refers to a plant that can be made into a bathing soap. We want the people to find treatment on acne that is regarded as the common skin problem especially among young adults.
