The science of mascara! Sounds good, no?





For example, what it is in mascara that curls your eyelash (the answer: the liquid contracts as it solidifies) and what they do to give it that volume and colour.





Also, look at the benifits of make up - i.e foundation can protect you from harmful elements in our atmosphere like pollution (look at how detrimental it could be too).





Look at the properties of nail polish, how colour-stay lipsticks work and basically how science is involved in the devlopment of cosmetics.





Also look at important people in the beauty industry. For example, the late Anita Roddick (founder of The Body Shop), who fought for animal rights when vivisection in the cosmetic industry was the norm. Look at the difference she made by researching how make up is tested nowadays, compared to the previous lab animals method (for example, before they used to test shampoo on rabbits: rabbits don't blink, so if the shampoo is unsafe it burns their eyes).





Go onto websites of leading brands, like Rimmel, L'Oreal and Maybelline and see what makes their best products successful.





Look at how colour used in make up can enhance a certain feature - i.e white liner on the inner lids make eyes appear bigger (because white reflects light).





Hope that gives you ideas and Good Luck with your project!


Happy New Year to you!I need a science fair project and I wanted one that has to do with beauty or make-up. any suggestions?
you could test which mascara works better, or foundation. and take a survey of people to see which is more popular, and then test the product to see which one actually works better.
hmm you could do...


do guys perfer makeup or no makeup





like show pcitures of girls wearing no make up and the same girls with makeup to see what they perfer.
Great Thinking.





Girly - and will get you noticed.


Why dont you focus on the chemicals.


What Chemical is in most creams/foundation.





Research + Explain What It Does.





You can hold a survey..


get people to try the product and see if it does what it is meant to.





Let me know if you win..


If you dont . those markers have got some complaints coming their way =P
