I had a really fun time writing this research paper. This process really taught me that when you are intruded by learning and passionate about wanting to understand methods to solve a method, how the research does not feel forced, but is something that will occur anyway. In the beginning of the year, I had this feeling that I would write about the environment, as well as about sustainability. But, I would have never imagined that I would also focus on chemicals. The way my paper at first was headed was about production in the sense of business and choices in ethics. I do keep the choices in ethics somewhat involved still in my final paper. I feel that may paper still has a lot of information to share, but I had limited time cause of the deadline. I am going to continue to research this, thus this paper is going to grow and become a helpful resource too keep documenting and look back on. I feel that this research paper assignment process has helped lead me to this final topic. Thus this final topic leading me into trying to help solve a problem in today’s world. This research so far has caused me to become aware about the way things work on our skin, and how there should be more awareness around this subject.
