Abstract

ABSTRACT Indonesia is one of the countries with high exposure to sunlight, and most of its population works outdoors, making skin protection necessary. While sunlight provides benefits, it also has harmful effects on the skin if exposed excessively. Ultraviolet rays, UVB and UVA, work synergistically to damage the skin, thus requiring prevention or protection to reduce the negative impacts of radiation. Excessive sun exposure is the main exogenous mediator of skin damage. The negative effects of sun exposure on the skin lead to various skin problems such as darkening, wrinkles, dullness, and the appearance of dark brown spots, and it can even cause skin cancer. Therefore, using sunscreen is crucial as it can prevent UV rays from penetrating the skin. This study uses a literature review design, where relevant scientific articles are analyzed to explore the potential of natural ingredients as sunscreen agents. A total of 9 articles were collected from various databases, including PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, using specific keywords related to UV protection, natural sunscreen, and bioactive compounds in plants. The selection of articles was based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, ensuring that only recent and relevant studies were considered. Natural ingredients have not yet been widely utilized in the sunscreen industry. Plants contain substances that can be extracted and serve as a potential source of sunscreen due to their photoprotective properties. This provides insight into the ability of plants to protect the skin through the compounds they contain, such as bioactive compounds like phenolic substances and antioxidants.

Abstract

Indonesia adalah salah satu negara dengan paparan sinar matahari yang tinggi dan sebagian besar penduduknya bekerja diluar ruangan sehingga memerlukan suatu perlindungan kulit. Sinar matahari selain memberi manfaat juga mempunyai dampak buruk pada kulit jika terpapar secara berlebihan. Sinar ultraviolet UVB dan UVA bekerja secara sinergis merusak kulit sehingga dibutuhkan pencegahan atau perlindungan untuk mengurangi dampak buruk pada kulit akibat radiasi tersebut.  Jika paparan sinar matahari berlebihan, jaringan epidermis kulit tidak mampu sepenuhnya melawan efek negatif sehingga diperlukan perlindungan, salah satunya dengan tabir surya. Tabir surya merupakan pelindung kulit dari paparan sinar matahari karena ikatan yang saling berkonjugasi sehingga ikatan tersebut beresonansi saat terpapar sinar UV dan akan menurunkan energi untuk melindungi kulit. Tabir surya memiliki dua mekanisme kerja yaitu secara fisik dengan memantulkan dan membiaskan sinar UV yang mengenai kulit dan secara kimia dengan cara menyerap sinar UV yang dipancarkan oleh matahari. Pada daun tumbuhan terdapat zat alami yang dapat diekstrak dan dapat bertindak sebagai sumber potensial tabir surya karena bersifat fotoprotektif. Daun-daunan seperti daun kersen, daun cempedak dan daun binahong mempunyai kemampuan untuk melindungi kulit melalui senyawa yang terkandung di dalam tanaman yang berupa senyawa bioaktif seperti senyawa fenolik dan didukung oleh adanya senyawa yang bersifat antioksidan.
