Formulation And Evaluation of Anti-Aging Cream

Skin ageing is a normal biological process that is impacted by both external (such UV radiation, pollution, and lifestyle) and intrinsic (like heredity) elements. Due to their safety and medicinal advantages, herbal formulations are becoming more popular as worries about the negative effects of synthetic cosmetics develop. Using natural plant extracts with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and skin-rejuvenating qualities—such as Aloe vera, Curcuma longa, Emblica officinalis, and Ocimum sanctum—the current study is on creating and assessing a herbal anti-aging cream. Stearic acid, cetyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, glycerin, and preservatives were among the appropriate excipients used to make the cream as an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion. A number of physical and physicochemical characteristics, including appearance, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, viscosity, washability, and stability, were assessed for the produced formulation. The herbal anti-aging cream’s acceptable look, decent spreadability, appropriate viscosity, skin-friendly pH, and satisfactory stability were all demonstrated by the results. The produced herbal anti-aging cream is safe, efficacious, and appropriate for topical administration, according to the study’s findings
