The Science Project (I swear this is relevant!)
At my school, we know spring has officially rolled around around because it is time for us to do our bi-annual science projects!! It’s like a science fair, but there’s no judging and no winning. Now, I always like to make my science projects relevant to my interests. With interests like mine, that’s pretty difficult! Like last time, I did a psychology project on stereotypes based on peoples outfits. I teamed up with a friend first dressed up all in pink then as total tomboys, and we asked elderly ladies what time it was. Lemme tell you, they did NOT like the short shorts on the girly outfit, and they were waaay nicer to us as tomboys! Weird, huh?
Well, even though I pulled a nice little A- with that, my teacher said that she expected more from me and that this time I have to do something with “hard sciences”, so no more psychology! I was at a loss for all of 10 minutes, before this idea found me…. what if I tested out acne treatments to find out which are actually strongest at taking out the bacteria? And this was really the perfect idea for me, because I ALWAYS get a few painful pimples right at the changing of the season (so, right now…). I found a little guide to follow loosely for it on a site that I can’t find now, but basically it involves growing e-coli (O_O) and finding out which acne meds do the best job at preventing the e-coli from growing.
Totally relevant, see?!!
So anyway, this also gives me an excuse to buy loads of acne treatments to try out. Ehehehe, I can already see the clear skin in my head….
I will be testing out 9 different acne medications, 3 from CVS, 3 from Sasa, and 3 that my friends (or readers) recommend to me! Starting with the drugstore brands, they are… *drumroll*
1. Neutrogena Rapid Clear Spot Gel
2. Clean&Clear Advantage Fast Clearing Spot Gel
3. Clearasil Ultra Overnight Acne Gel
And the Sasa ones…..
4. Kuan Yuan Lian PHAREX PROFESSIONAL Tea Tree Acne Treatment Gel
5. Heme Acne Spot Treatment Gel
6. Vinvin Active Anti Acne Gel
Annnd the last 3 are to be decided! I am open to all of your suggestions! I wish I could try Proactiv, but the only way to get Proactiv is to buy the whole set for $20, which sux.
I am super excited to see what works best. I have my money on the Clean&Clear one, just because I’ve heard that it is extremely extremely strong and hurts a lot to use and should only be applied as a last resort.
With that, remember that this experiment only shows which acne med is strongest, not which one is best at clearing acne or best for you or for me. There are loads of other factors to consider, but the one that wins this will most likely be a good go-to for when you have that one pimple that just never goes away. I can’t wait to show everyone my results when it’s done!
