NU12 by Ed Duenas: Separate Butt and Face Soap

Edwin T. Dueñas                                                                                                                                              NU12 – Week 1
New Product: World's First Butt Soap
Compare to other western countries Filipinos have a different way in handling and cleaning human feces. The more conventional way on dealing with their stool is to wipe their butt with toilet paper and/or wash it with a bidet. While the most common way for Filipinos is to use a pail and a soap to wash and clean their waste.  In Florence, Italy comfort rooms has a separate toilet bowl with some sort of washer. After wiping their waste they transfer to the other bowl to wash. In the United States, tissue paper is enough to handle the cleaning of the human waste and their butt.
                            
 Going back to Filipinos, soap is essential when it comes to cleaning of waste but often times the one that they use in their body or face is the soap that they use for cleaning their butt. This is unhealthy and unhygienic as the dirt or bacteria may transfer to the face, mouth or other parts. Upon analyzing, it brought about an idea of having a dedicated bar of soap that would only be use for cleaning of the butt. This is one issue that is usually being neglected by Filipinos and statistics shows numerous diseases are being cause by the bacteria brought about by the human waste.  Having a separate soap for the cleaning of the butt or human feces, it can be sad that this will reduce the transfer of bacteria.
The plan is to make consumers health conscious and make them more hygienic. You can only imagine bacteria transferring to your whole body because of using soap for all. Many may argue the use of ordinary soap as butt soap but most of the time consumers forget and becomes confuse in which soap they have decided to dedicate it with. This results to mixture of what soap to use. Research shows that there is already in the market a soap that has a label for soap and butt. Again, this will not work because it is useless to divide one soap for two functions in two sides because the water will travel in both sides only to spread the bacteria in both sides. And normally humans are not accustomed in using a soap in just one side.
                               
We have to face the fact that one time or another, we had experience the call of nature and tried to find a soap for one time use for cleaning our butt. Most often we see in the store different soaps that have different functions that we do not use like whitening, papaya soap etc. The plan is to produce butt soap that has a lower cost to ordinary soap and with limited add-ons but has a specific formulation for cleaning of the butt. For purposes of company secrecy the formulations will not be revealed in this paper.4.  (to be the new business?)
