1. Enumerate the factors that contribute to lip darkening/burning.
- sun exposure, tobacco smoking, pregnancy, certain medications, medical condition.

2. List down the different constituents present in the flower extract of your choice according to credible journals and
articles.
 - In our lipstick product we use gumamela flower extract as active ingredient because according to the study of Paje
G and Ramirez I., 2021, it shows that the main constituents found in hibiscus flower or gumamela are alkaloids,
cardenolides and bufadienolides, tannins, protein and carbohydrates which helps the skin;s ability to maintain
moisture. It provides the skin to keep hydrated, soft and supple for longer. In addition, for the lips it benefits to
remove layers of dead skin cells to reveal a rosy and toned lips.

3. What is magic lipstick? What is the component that makes it different from the usual-colored lipstick?
- Magic lipstick is a color-changing lipstick. The lipsticks contain dyes that act a bit like litmus paper, the
acidity indicator dyes are colorless, weak acids. But lips have a higher pH than the lipstick, which triggers a
chemical reaction that converts the acids into a strongly colored compound.
