ABSTRACT
The present study was to prepare and evaluate
the herbal cosmetic cream comprising extracts of
Calendula Officinalis. The evaluations of the
formulation were done on different parameters like pH, viscosity, spreadibilty and stability were examined. Formulated cream showed good spreadibilty, good consistency, homogeneity, appearance, pH, spreadibilty, no evidence of phase separation and ease of removal. The prepared formulation shows no redness, edema,
inflammation and irritation during irritancy studies. The formulation therefore found to be safe to use for skin. These studies suggest that composition of extracts and base of cream are more stable and safe, it may produce synergistic action.
