  • Sunscreens protect the skin by using

    that absorb, scatter, or reflect ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

  • The SPF rating of a sunscreen primarily indicates its protection level against

    radiation.

  • Physical (inorganic) sunscreen agents, such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, protect the skin by

    UV radiation.

  • Chemical (organic) sunscreen agents protect the skin by

    UV radiation and converting it into a small amount of heat.

The Flashcard Building

Blocks Game – Surfactants Edition

Surfactants are one of the essential building blocks

for formulators. Think of them as

LEGO pieces

that you will use whenever

you create formulations. These

flashcards will serve as

your

reference guide

to help you make the best ingredient choices and

avoid

formulation mistakes

.

The Surfactant

Challenge

There are four types of surfactants:

Anionic, Non-Ionic,

Cationic, and Amphoteric

.

What You Need to Do:

1️ Click HERE

to download the PowerPoint

document

  • This

    is the

    template for your flashcard.
  • Do

    not modify the formatting!

    The flashcards must all remain visually

    consistent.

2️ Click HERE

to locate the surfactant assigned

to you

  • You

    have been given

    one surfactant from the list in the "Flashcards_Allocation" spreadsheet

3️ Find and gather the necessary information

Use the following sources to fill in your flashcard:

🔍 Chemical Structure:

  • Search

    for your surfactant in

    PubChem to find its chemical structure.

🖼

Image of the

Ingredient:

  • Find

    a

    relevant picture on Google

    that represents the ingredient

    (molecular model, ingredient in use, etc.).

📖 Usage Information:

  • Use Cosmetics Info, Ultrus Prospector, INCI Decoder, INCI Guide, SpecialChem Cosmetic ingredients, Paula's choice,  or any other accurate resource to gather information on all the topics in the flashcard table. For example:
    • Function

      (e.g., foaming, emulsifying, cleansing, conditioning, etc.)

    • Solubility

      (oil-soluble, water-soluble, amphiphilic)

    • pH

      range

    • Compatibility

      with other ingredients

    • Common

      applications (cleansers, shampoos, serums, creams, etc.)

    • Any

      safety or irritation concerns

You might have to register to the site to access the information, you choose if you want to use your student email (and lose your account at the end of your studies) or a personal (professional) email that you can use after you graduate.

📊

Additional

Information:

  • Use ChatGPT
  • Google (prompt: "name of the surfactant  in skincare")
  • and other  sources to find the rest of the information in the table of the flashcard. For example:
    • Formulation

      guidelines

    • Recommended

      usage percentage

    • HLB

      value (if applicable)

    • Key

      formulation tips

4 Move the flashcard in the

right place in the slide deck; 

For example, SLS is an "Anionic surfactant" in the

“Sulfates” chapter.

 

5 Build the Excel repository of ingredients

  •  Copy and Paste all the information collected in the Flashcard Builder Google form 

🚨 Important Rules

Do NOT change the formatting

of the flashcards!

Keep the structure

identical across all flashcards for uniformity.

Use reliable sources

(PubChem, INCI Decoder, INCI Guide, supplier

websites, etc.). Feel free to change the first column if you find information in other webpages than the ones mentioned)

Be precise – double-check your information to ensure accuracy.

Keep it simple and clear

– the flashcards must be easy to reference

later.

🔜 Next Steps

Once we complete surfactants

, we will continue

building flashcards for

other ingredient categories. Your

flashcard

library

will grow and become your ultimate formulation cheat sheet!

WHAT TO SUBMIT:

  • Submit below the Powerpoint document that was provided completed with your flashcard located in the right place in the slide deck.
  • once you have copied and pasted your flashcard information in the Flashcard Builder Google form, your response will be verified directly in Google.

Question 4: Measuring Viscosity with the Brookfield Viscometer

Question 4: Measuring Viscosity with the Brookfield

Viscometer

Viscosity is

measured using a

viscometer.

The model used in

the lab is the

.

Two key parameters

must be set correctly before taking a reading: the

in revolutions per minute (rpm), and the

.

After

minute(s), the reading is stabilised and the viscosity in

is displayed at the top of the screen.

The torque should be

within an acceptable range, typically between

and

to ensure accuracy.

If the torque is too

low or too high, the measurement is

and should be repeated.

Viscosity will be

measured at

rpm and then at rpm.

Question 2: Weighing Method Selection

Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding the preferred weighing techniques in semi-solid or liquid formulations?

  • Liquids and semi solids are weighed
    .
  • Powders and flakes are weighed
    .

When liquids and semi-solids are weighed, the

liquid needs to be weighed first. If there are several of them be extremely careful not to put too much of the ones that are not the first ones weighed.

When powders are weighed, the sequence of tasks is as follows:

The weight recorded is a

number.
