Abstract

Ashitaba herb contains flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, alkaloids, and terpenoids, which are known to have antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, ashitaba has the potential to be developed into anti-acne preparations, one of which is cream. Creams have various advantages, namely the ability to deliver hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds better, provide better moisture, and have emollient and occlusive properties by forming a protective layer on the skin and maintaining skin hydration longer. The purpose of this study was to determine the physical properties of methanol extract cream preparations of ashitaba herb. The research method used was laboratory experimental. Ashitaba herb was extracted using the sonication method with 80% methanol solvent to produce a solid extract. The ashitaba herb's methanol extract was combined to create a cream preparation, and its physical characteristics such as homogeneity, pH, viscosity, spreadability, adhesion, and cream type were assessed. The physical property testing revealed that the cream preparation had a unique scent, a thick consistency, and a green hue. This resulted in a homogenous oil-in-water (O/W) type cream preparation with a pH of 6.29, viscosity of 37.050 cp, spreadability of 5.23 cm, and adhesion of 4.59 seconds. Thus, it can be said that the production of the methanol extract of ashitaba herb cream satisfies the requirements and has good physical qualities.

Abstract

Abstrak Maraknya peredaran produk perawatan kulit tanpa izin edar serta rendahnya literasi masyarakat dalam memilih skincare yang aman masih menjadi permasalahan kesehatan kulit yang perlu mendapat perhatian. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu-ibu Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK) Desa Bengkaung, Kecamatan Batulayar, Kabupaten Lombok Barat mengenai pemilihan produk perawatan kulit yang tepat dan aman serta meningkatkan kewaspadaan terhadap produk kosmetik berbahaya. Kegiatan dilaksanakan dengan melibatkan 26 orang ibu PKK sebagai mitra sasaran melalui metode penyuluhan berupa ceramah, diskusi tanya jawab, dan pembagian pamflet edukatif. Evaluasi efektivitas kegiatan dilakukan menggunakan desain pretest–posttest untuk melihat perubahan tingkat pengetahuan peserta sebelum dan sesudah intervensi edukasi. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan peserta secara deskriptif, ditandai dengan meningkatnya jumlah peserta yang memperoleh nilai ≥80 serta tidak ditemukannya peserta dengan nilai di bawah 40 pada posttest. Meskipun demikian, hasil uji Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan tersebut belum signifikan secara statistik (p=0,591). Secara kualitatif, kegiatan ini menghasilkan luaran nyata berupa meningkatnya kesadaran, antusiasme, dan partisipasi aktif ibu-ibu PKK dalam memahami pentingnya pemilihan produk perawatan kulit yang aman. Kegiatan ini tidak hanya berkontribusi pada peningkatan pengetahuan individu, tetapi juga memperkuat peran ibu-ibu PKK sebagai agen edukasi di lingkungan keluarga dan masyarakat, sehingga menjadi langkah reflektif awal dalam membangun budaya sadar kosmetik aman secara berkelanjutan. Kata kunci: edukasi kesehatan; ibu pkk; perawatan kulit. AbstractThe widespread circulation of skincare products without marketing authorization and low public literacy in choosing safe skincare products remain skin health issues that require attention. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge of the Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) mothers in Bengkaung Village, Batulayar District, West Lombok Regency regarding the selection of appropriate and safe skincare products and to raise awareness of dangerous cosmetic products. The activity was carried out by involving 26 PKK mothers as target partners through counseling methods in the form of lectures, question and answer discussions, and distribution of educational pamphlets. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the activity was carried out using a pretest–posttest design to observe changes in the level of knowledge of participants before and after the educational intervention. The evaluation results showed an increase in participant knowledge descriptively, marked by an increase in the number of participants who obtained a score of ≥80 and no participants were found with a score below 40 in the posttest. However, the results of the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test showed that the increase was not statistically significant (p=0.591). Qualitatively, this activity resulted in tangible outcomes in the form of increased awareness, enthusiasm, and active participation of PKK mothers in understanding the importance of choosing safe skincare products. This activity not only contributed to increased individual knowledge but also strengthened the role of PKK mothers as educational agents within the family and community, thus becoming a reflective first step in building a sustainable culture of awareness of safe cosmetics. Keywords: health education; skincare; women members of the family welfare movement.

Abstract

Background: Sensitive skin is an uncomfortable sensation on the skin that arises due to a response to stimuli that normally do not cause discomfort. Women more commonly experience it than men. Recent evidence indicates that cosmetic use is the predominant triggering factor compared to other factors, particularly in women, due to the extensive and varied use of products. Objective: This study examined the relationship between the number of cosmetic products used daily and weekly and the incidence of sensitive skin among young adult females.Methods: This cross-sectional study employed a stratified random sampling method. The study population involved young female adults who agreed to participate after completing the informed consent form. The exclusion criteria were facial inflammation and use of oral or topical medication containing corticosteroids. The cosmetic usage pattern was assessed through a questionnaire. Skin sensitivity assessment was conducted by utilizing the lactic acid stinging test (LAST), where 10% aqueous lactic acid solution was topically applied to the right nasolabial fold region. The mann-whitney test was employed to analyze the relationship between the number of cosmetic products used daily and weekly and the occurrence of sensitive skin. Results: Out of 136 subjects, 23.5% have sensitive skin based on the LAST. The most prevalent products used by the majority of respondents are facial wash, sunscreen, and moisturizer, with a percentage of >70%. No significant relationship is found between the number of products used daily and weekly and sensitive skin (p > 0.05). Conclusion: No significant differences regarding the number of products used among sensitive and non-sensitive skin groups. Therefore, future studies are needed to explore the ingredients in cosmetic products and their volume of usage, as well as to conduct prospective studies assessing the impact of cosmetic usage patterns on the occurrence of sensitive skin.
