Qualitative tests were carried out on 6 samples that indicated they contained ethanol using a gas chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID) at the LPPOM MUI Laboratory. The six samples, namely sample A had an ethanol content of 86.96%, sample B had an ethanol content of 62.36%, sample C had an ethanol content of 0.44%, sample D had an ethanol content of 3.21%, sample E had a concentration of 2.00%, and sample F had a concentration of 0.88%. 8 out of 10 samples fulfill the requirements for the ethanol content limit in a cosmetic product based on MUI Fatwa No. 40 of 2018 and BPOM Regulation No. 17 of 2022, namely samples C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J, while 2 samples did not fulfill the requirements, namely samples A and B]]>
