A learning path in eight lenses

Cosmetics Path

One jar of lotion, eight ways of seeing it: skin, pH and emulsion chemistry, why we use cosmetics and how ads persuade us, how products are made and tested, beauty history and Indigenous-owned brands, label words and Health Canada rules, colour and design, and safe, patch-tested mixing and careers. Self-directed modules for curious learners, 12 and up, including adults. Type, tap and draw right on the pages. If you’re not logged in, your work saves in this browser. Members’ work saves to their account. Use Print my work or Print blank on any module to print it.

Lens 2, The Science of Cosmetics, is open to everyone. The other seven lenses are for members: log in to open them. Each module works on its own, so start with whichever grabs you, and save Lens 8 (Execution) for last: it leads into the capstone in the printed book.
