Abstract
Natural remedies are often favored due to their perceived safety and minimal side effects compared to synthetic alternatives. There is a growing global demand for herbal formulations. This study focuses on the development and evaluation of an herbal anti-acne face wash, incorporating aqueous extracts of betel leaves (Piper betel), turmeric (Curcuma longa), and walnut (Juglans regia). Despite the availability of many herbal acne treatments on the market, our objective is to create a completely herbal product devoid of synthetic ingredients. The selected plants are renowned for their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. We prepared several formulation batches (F1 to F3) using varying concentrations of honey and evaluated them based on parameters such as color, appearance, consistency, washability, pH, and spreadability. The optimized formulation was then compared to a commercial product. Among all the formulations, batch F2 was found to be optimal across all parameters. This study is a significant step toward developing an effective herbal anti-acne face wash using betel leaf, walnut, turmeric, and other natural ingredients
