Title:
05. FORMULATION EVALUATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF NATURAL ANTI-ACNE SERUM USING CINNAMON AND CALENDULA OFFICINALIS

Abstract :
The level of active ingredients is higher than in a usual face cream, since the heavier oils and ingredients have been done away with. So while the latter could have around ten per cent of active ingredients, the former has a whopping seventy per cent or more! Serum is a skincare product you can apply to your skin after cleansing but before moisturizing with the intent of delivering powerful ingredients directly into the skin. Serum is particularly suited to this task because it is made up of smaller molecules that can penetrate deeply into the skin and deliver a very high concentration of active ingredients. This makes them a great tool for targeting specific skincare concerns, like wrinkles. There is urgent need for Serum production and from local raw materials in order to supplement the existing ones. I recommend more research to be carried out on extraction of Cinnamon and Calendula officinalis essential oil and its formulation from vast variety of oil bearing plants in our ecosystem.
