Abstract

Corn is a popular ingredient in facial skin care products. Corn contains thiamine, which can dry wounds and eliminate acne scars that appear as holes on the face or black spots. Corn starch is made into a gel mask with the gelling ingredient hidroxy prophyl methyl cellulose (HPMC). This research intends to establish if a gel mask manufactured from sweet corn starch (Zea mays saccharata) can meet the requirements of the physical quality test assessment results, as well as the stability requirements. The research approach is experimental, employing a sample gathering methodology known as purposive sampling. The evaluation of gel mask preparations includes evaluating the physical quality of the preparations, irritant testing on 10 participants, and drying time tests on the preparations. The evaluation of the preparations revealed that all gel mask formulations were semi-solid gels with a yellowish white color and a distinct corny smell. The results were homogeneous, with an average pH of 7.5–7.7, spreadability of 5–7 cm, and viscosity of 22133-67566. The preparation also exhibited stable stability at room temperature and did not irritate volunteers' skin. Therefore, both the stability requirements and the physical quality test assessment results are satisfied by the preparation.

Abstract

Curry leaves (Bergera koenigii) are widely recognized for their rich phytochemical content and antioxidant properties; however, their application as active ingredients in cosmetic delivery systems remains relatively underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile and antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract of B. koenigii leaves and to investigate its potential incorporation into a peel-off mask formulation through physicochemical characterization. Antioxidant activity was assessed using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) assay, while formulation quality was evaluated through organoleptic properties, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, spreadability, drying time, stability testing for 28 days, cycling test, and skin irritation assessment. Phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of tannins, flavonoids, steroids, and saponins. The ethanol extract exhibited very strong antioxidant activity with an  value of 8.23 µg/mL, indicating a high free radical scavenging capacity. The formulated peel-off masks demonstrated stable physicochemical properties during storage, with viscosity values of 6,740–13,729 cPs, spreadability of 5.3–6.6 cm, drying time of 14.03–16.36 minutes, and pH values within the acceptable skin-compatible range (6.40–6.63). No irritation responses were observed in the preliminary skin test. These findings highlight the potential of B. koenigii ethanol extract as a promising natural antioxidant ingredient for peel-off mask cosmetic formulations.
