The growing demand for natural skincare products has spurred interest in developing herbal soaps that effectively cleanse and moisturize the skin. This study aimed to formulate and evaluate herbal soaps with these dual functionalities. The research explored the use of various carrier oils, known for their cleansing properties, alongside herbal extracts with established moisturizing and skin-soothing benefits. The formulation process likely involved a selection method, such as cold process or melt-and-pour, followed by the incorporation of chosen herbal ingredients. The evaluation then focused on the soap's physicochemical properties, including pH, moisture content, foaming ability, and lather stability. Additionally, the study might have assessed the cleansing efficacy through tests that measure soil removal or oil absorption. Skin moisturizing potential could be evaluated using corneometry, a technique that measures skin hydration. Furthermore, the research may have explored the in-vitro antimicrobial activity of the herbal soap against common skin pathogens. Finally, user trials could be conducted to assess subjective parameters like skin feel, comfort, and overall satisfaction with the herbal soap. By combining these formulation and evaluation techniques, the study aimed to develop an herbal soap that offers a gentle cleansing experience while promoting healthy, moisturized skin.
