📄 Abstract
This study aimed to formulate and evaluate herbal face wash containing coffee powder as a key ingredient. The formulation included ethanolic extracts of coffee powder, along with other herbal extracts and active ingredients known for their skin benefits. The face wash was prepared using a hot extraction method with a water condenser. Methyl paraben and sodium lauryl sulphate were added as preservatives and surfactants, respectively, to enhance stability and cleansing properties. Glycerin was included for its moisturizing effect, and rose oil was added for fragrance. The physical characteristics, pH, stability, microbiological safety, skin compatibility, and efficacy of the herbal face wash were evaluated through various tests. The results demonstrated that the face wash exhibited desirable physical characteristics, including color, odor, and texture. The pH was within the acceptable range for skincare products, ensuring compatibility with the skins natural pH. Stability testing revealed no significant changes in appearance, odor, or texture over time under various storage conditions. Microbiological testing confirmed the safety of the product for consumer use. Skin compatibility tests showed no adverse reactions or sensitivities, indicating the face washs suitability for different skin types. Efficacy testing demonstrated effective cleansing and moisturizing properties, with positive consumer feedback regarding fragrance and overall satisfaction. Overall, the formulated herbal face wash containing coffee powder offers a promising skincare solution with potential benefits for skin health and hygiene.
