tomato 55% Tomato 50% Tomato 35%

The results of the test performed by the researchers to the representative for the testing of

product; in the first after we apply the product, the skin of the representative becomes smoother.

In the next test, the skin of representative becomes smoother. In the third test, the unexpected

result appeared, the oily skin of the representative becomes normal and smoothers. In the last test

with the first aid and please consult to dermatologist for further cure, and it might that this study

needs more study to explore the other effects of this product.
