Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
Our aim was to formulation development and evaluation of herbal face pack without adding any preservatives. Face pack was formulated with different natural ingredients (sandal wood powder, multani mitti, china rose flower powder, turmeric, rose water) which are rich sources of vitamins and minerals that are essential for the health and glow of the skin. Evaluation methods were organoleptic, physico-chemical, rheological parameters and stability along with irritancy test. All prepared formulations were standardized by different parameters. Organoleptic parameters showed that the pack was smooth and rheological findings proved the flow properties of the pack as it was found to be free flowing and non-sticky in nature. The results showed that the formulation was stable on all aspects. Stability tests performed revealed the inert nature of the pack. Irritancy test was showed that no irritancy after use. Face packs are generally used to increase the fairness, glow and smoothness of the skin. They are non-toxic, non-allergic and having lesser side effects. Thus in the present work, it was a very good attempt to formulate and evaluate the herbal face pack containing natural herbal ingredients.
