Abstract
Coconut and Sunflower oils have phytochemical components that can prevent human skin from being exposed to sunlight. These ingredients have the power to soften and moisturize skin. The purpose of this study is to identify the composition of skin cream that protects the skin from sunlight while also understanding its chemical and physical properties. The current study aims to develop herbal sunscreens that will effectively protect skin from harmful sun rays, sunburn, and skin cancer. These sunscreens will contain turmeric, which has a strong antiseptic property that shields skin from bacteria caused by excessive sweating, coconut oil, which is used as a sun-block agent and helps protect skin from sun damage, and aloe vera, which has a cooling effect on the skin. The physicochemical properties, sprediability, irritation, dye, Washability, and stability of the prepared herbal sunscreens were assessed. Turmeric and aloe vera gel, two herbal excipients that brighten skin and have anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and other effects, are extracted using an exploratory method in this study. Evaluation is done on the formulation's chemical and physical characteristics, which facilitate judgments regarding the formulation's efficacy.
