ABSTRACT

Herbal cosmetics are preparations that are used to decorate and enhance one's appearance. The purpose of the present study was to establish and test an herbal flu that contained plant extracts prepared by using water in the form of oil for the purpose of nourishing and moisturizing the skin. Cold cream is prepared using neem oil and turmeric extract. Integrated product quality testing was evaluated using a variety of testing methods. No visible structural changes have been seen in the resulting cream. The formulated cream showed good consistency and distribution ability, homogeneity, pH, non-greasy, no evidence of phase separation during the study period. Stabilization parameters such as physical appearance, environment, viscosity and aroma of the resulting cream showed that there were no significant differences during the study period. The herbal extract containing cold cream gives a cooling and cooling effect due to the slight evaporation of water present in the emulsion. Cold creams are very moist as they provide an oil barrier that reduces water loss in the stratum corneum, the outer layer of the skin. They are an oil-based emulsion and are intended for use on accessible skin or mucous membranes to give a local and sometimes systemic effect to the application area. In cold cream, a large portion is the fat category. Simply put, cold cream is an oil-based semisolid preparation. Usually; it contains neem oil, beeswax, borax, and water.
