Abstract

The skin is the body’s primary barrier against free radicals, which can induce oxidative stress and premature ageing. Antioxidants neutralize these radicals. This study aims to formulate and evaluate a cream containing ethanol extract of mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) seed coat. Four formulations were prepared with extract concentrations of 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. Physical evaluations included organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, cream type, spreadability, and adhesiveness. Antioxidant activity was measured using the DPPH method. All formulations met physical standards, and formula F4 (25%) showed the highest antioxidant activity with an IC₅₀ value of 79.49 ppm. These findings indicate the potential of mung bean seed coat extract as an active antioxidant agent in topical preparations.
