PROJECT SUMMARY
My app allows the user to find their ideal product. I created a function which matches the user with a specific moisturizer or cleanser depending on their skin concerns.
WHY?
I wanted to simplify the search for the perfect skincare product.
HOW?
I looked up ideal products for various skin types, whether you have dry, oily, or mixed skin, and whether you struggle with acne or blackheads. I put these into a data table and created a function which outputs the user's ideal product based on these skin variables.
WHAT?
The project depends on various variables which are necessary for my main function and its parameter. Specificities for how each section applies to the program's overall purpose are implemented as commentary in my code.
SO WHAT?
I have a better grasp on coding, this was great practice. I learned about how strenuous it can be to create something so simple, so I have gained way more respect for coders who create massive projects to help others.
WHAT'S NEXT?
My project is very simplified and doesn't take into account other skin concerns or situations where the user has, for instance, both blackheads and acne, or is looking for other types of products that aren't cleansers or moisturizers. I could expand it by providing a larger variety of products that apply to more diverse conditions.

REFERENCES & ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
My data is from many different pharmaceutical companies, so any reference to a product credits the original producer of said product. I used certain images which are also credited in my code.
JUDGES FEEDBACK
This apps looks interesting. I would like to get recommendaitons of what products to use. It will be good to see an app like yours displayed in a skin care store, so clients can receive advice before deciding on produrcts to buy. I am sure if you continue develping this app, you will find a market for it.
