Abstract

The growing demand for natural and skin-friendly cosmetic products has led to increased interest in herbal formulations with multifunctional benefits. The present study focuses on the formulation and evaluation of a herbal skin-brightening cream using Beta vulgaris (beetroot) and Rosa damascena (rose) extracts, known for their antioxidant, soothing, and rejuvenating properties. The cream was formulated as an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion using suitable excipients such as stearic acid, cetyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, glycerin, and preservatives to ensure stability, consistency, and user acceptability. Beetroot extract was incorporated for its natural pigments and antioxidant activity, while rose extract contributed to skin toning, anti-inflammatory effects, and pleasant fragrance.

The prepared formulation was evaluated for various physicochemical parameters including appearance, pH, viscosity, spreadability, homogeneity, washability, and stability under different storage conditions. The results demonstrated that the cream exhibited a smooth texture, good spreadability, and a skin-compatible pH, indicating its suitability for topical application. No signs of phase separation or irritation were observed during the study period. The presence of bioactive compounds in beetroot and rose is expected to provide antioxidant protection and enhance skin appearance.
