For the experiment I ordered most of my supplies from Amazon. You can find the small scale, petri dishes, and some of the moisturizers. Sometimes Amazon can take a long time to ship (unless you want to pay more). Make sure you order at least 1-2 weeks beforehand if you are doing a science fair project too. You can also find a lot of the moisturizers at Target. Sometimes you can even find some of the moisturizers for the same price or less than on Amazon. Also I had a lot of the supplies around my house you can ask your parents if they know if you have some of these materials.
How does moisturizer work?
The main function of moisturizer is to help replenish and put moisture back into your skin. This helps your skin from drying out any further. Moisturizer also creates a wall or barrier that helps lock the moisture in your skin. Many moisturizer companies create moisturizers that are made to treat certain skin types which include normal, dry, oily, combination, and sensitive. When you are looking for moisturizer make sure to find the best moisturizer for your skin type. Also make sure you educate your self about your skin type because each moisturizer works a different way for each skin type.
