ABSTRACT

The primary objective of this study is to formulate a herbal cream with multiple benefits, including moisturizing, acne reduction, wrinkle reduction, and skin nourishment, using natural herbal ingredients such as Aloe vera, Turmeric, and Neem. Herbal medicine, also known as Herbalism or botanical medicine, utilizes herbs for their therapeutic properties. These plants contain various chemical compounds that exert effects on the body. Herbal cosmetics are beauty products enriched with herbal ingredients, offering skin healing, smoothing, appearance enhancement, and conditioning properties. The formulated creams were assessed for physiochemical parameters like appearance, irritancy, pH, texture, washability, and spreadability. The goal of the herbal cream is to promote healthy skin and impart a natural glow.
