Your eyes are covered with a
substance, secreted by the
Meibomian glands, which prevent
bacteria and fungus and such from
growing or surviving on your eyes.
[Yum!]
I propose making a liquid soap
containing this substance, for
putting
on your face before going to sleep.
This would
keep your face clean and
hygienic overnight.

Washing your skin actually removes the chemicals your body produces to put an anti-bacterial shield upon itself. |

This seems to be yet another attempt to sanitise our world against the things we don't understand. There are about 700 anti-bacterial household products on the market... none of which makes a lick o' difference to your protection from bacteria. In fact, they may make things worse, by reducing "herd immunity" to certain bugs. A whole industry is developing around our fear of being "dirty". |

Stinky, rotting, putrescent fishbone for you. |

Anti-bacterial soap is Widely Baked. What would be the specific advantages of this particular reagent over the other ones already out there? |

Btw, I am intrigued that you need something to keep your face from getting dirty overnight. Exactly where do you sleep?! |

Mmm, delicious. I have fairly oily skin, something like this would be perfect. It is natural, one of our body's own defenses, so it wouldn't be "removing chemicals that your body produces to shield itself," just applying more. Methinks the other two understand what you say, yet not! |
