Acne
Cure Or Powerful Bleaching Agent!
Scientist: “To kill the bacteria that causes
acne let us just kill everything including the top layers of the skin! Yes,
let’s just burn it all off! That has to be healthy for the skin...
Jr. Scientist: “Well, actually, I
don’t think so... In college, we just learned...”
Scientist:
“Oh wait, those layers of the skin will grow back... Hurrah!”
Jr. Scientist: “But, why does the acne
keep coming back? Is there something wrong with the skin?”
Scientist: “Yes, the skin is stupid
and we know better! Keep putting the ble..., I mean the solution on the skin!
Yes, that’s it! Oh and don’t forget to tell people to not get the solution on
their clothes or hair cause it will immediately whiten them”
Jr. Scientist: “Okay, we’ll add that
to the bottle. That does sound rather harsh.”
Scientist: “Let’s see what else, oh
yes! This is very important! We need to limit the solution to 2.5% perhaps 10%
cause the ble..., I mean the product, is so strong.”
Jr. Scientist: “Yes, as I recall, in
college we learned, in high concentrations is highly flammable and explosive.
Sir, will people actually put this on their skin?”
Scientist: “Of course, this is an acne
cure! We’ll just need to advertise it with young teens in the commercial. They
haven’t even studied chemistry yet! It’ll work great! OR we can use famous
celebrities that these kids look up to to endorse it!”
Okay, here are some facts. Its
chemical name is C14H10O4. Its natural form is that of a white crystalline
powder. Its stability is described as stable, but highly flammable and
potentially explosive, especially when mixed with organic materials. What is
this? It is benzoyl peroxide!
Benzoyl peroxide presents a number of
hazards. Firstly, it is potentially explosive when mixed with organic material.
Friction or grinding may also be sufficient to make it explode. The compound is
very flammable. Benzoyl peroxide is toxic if you breathe it in, and may be
harmful if you swallow it or get it on the skin. Possible tumor promoter. May
act as a mutagen. Toxic by inhalation. May be harmful if swallowed and in
contact with skin. Eye, skin and respiratory irritant. (The above was taken
from areas of the Oxford Chemical Safety Database.)
Wow, now I know that this is at 100%
dosage. But did you also know that this acne cure is used to dye hair
and is an active ingredient in teeth whitening systems! Okay, I don’t know
about you, but when I was a teen, if I had heard ANY of this, I sure would have
turned and ran in the opposite direction instead of putting it on my face twice
per day!
Now, let’s look at pure lye soap...
hmm... there are no bleaching agents... there is nothing explosive or
flammable... hmmm oh yes, and this soap contains natural formed glycerin (from
the soap making process) which hydrates these top layers of skin the benzoyl
peroxide burns off. Hmmm... hydrated skin, I bet that is healthier! Oh wait it
is! Of course! Well, what is in this soap... well look at that. Just lard,
water and lye.
