It is not surprising to learn that children from age 8 to 12 have started wearing mascara and eyeliner. Reports show that the market size has increased over the years, with market size worth of RM 3692 million in 2008. However, cosmetics nowadays can cost a lot, and because they are used frequently, a person can spend a lot on cosmetics alone. Statistics have shown that Malaysians spend RM 148 million on cosmetics annually. Moreover, many people do not realize the dangers that these cosmetics and skin products can cause harm to their health and the environment. On the other hand, the word 'game' is often seen something that would bring harm rather than benefit. Most people carmot accept or agree that games can be educational and beneficial towards the game players.

This project was made with using game-based learning approach method of transferring knowledge. The study focused on teenagers and yonng adults.
