Among the 5 formulations the formulations 3 and 4 shows better
results in evaluation. The main objective is to prepare a cream with
natural herbal extracts and minimize the side effects of the chemical
cosmetics. Acne vulgaris is a common skin disorder which affects
containing the most extensive oil glands, including the face, back

years, the use of antibiotics has shown Against vulgaris.
Nevertheless, the prevalence of antibiotic resistance Within the
dermatological setting has been increased. The progress of Antibiotic

Heat liquid paraffin and beeswax in a borosilicate glass beaker at 75 ℃ and maintain that
heating temperature.(Oil phase).
In another beaker, dissolve borax, methylparaben undistilled water and heat this beaker to 75
℃ to dissolve borax and methylparaben and to get a clear solution. (Aqueous phase).

Evaluation of cream:
Physical evaluation:
In this test, the cream was observed for colour, odour, texture, state (table 2)
Irritancy:
Mark the area (1 cm2) on the left-hand dorsal surface. Then the cream was applied to that area
and the time was noted. Then it is checked for irritancy, erythema, and endemic any for an
interval up to 24 h and reported (table 3).
Wash ability
A small amount of cream was applied on the hand and it is then washed with tap water.
pH
0.5 g cream was taken and dispersed in 50 ml distilled water and then PH was measured by
using digital PH meter.
Viscosity
Viscosity of cream was done by using Brooke field viscometer at a temperature of 25 ℃
using spindle No. 63 at 2.5 RPM.
Phase separation
Prepared cream was kept in a closed container at a temperature of 25-100 ℃ away from
light. Then phase separation was checked for 24 h for 30 d. Any change in the phase
separation was observed/checked.
Spread ability
The spread ability was expressed in terms of time in seconds taken by two slides to slip off
from the cream, placed in between the slides, under certain load. Lesser the time taken for
separation of the two slides better the spread ability. Two sets of glass slides of standard
dimension were taken. Then one slide of suitable dimension was taken and the cream
formulation was placed on that slide. Then other slide was placed on the top of the
formulation. Then a weight or certain load was placed on the upper slide so that the cream
between the two slides was pressed uniformly to form a thin layer. Then the weight was
removed and excess of formulation adhering to the slides was scrapped off. The upper slide
Citation: Vaishnavi Madewad et al. Ijppr.Human, 2023; Vol. 27 (2): 845-862.

was allowed to slip off freely by the force of weight tied to it. The time taken by the upper
slide to slip off was noted. (table 8)
Spread ability= m × l/t
Where,
m= Standard weight which is tied to or placed over the upper slide (30g)
l= length of a glass slide (5 cm)
t= time taken in seconds.
Greasiness
Here the cream was applied on the skin surface in the form of smear and checked if the smear
was oily or grease-like.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Evaluation results of all the 3 formulations are gives below.
Physical evaluation
In this test color, odor, texture and state of the three formulations were checked.
Irritancy
Mark the area (1 cm2) on left hand dorsal surface. Then the cream was applied to that area
and the time was noted. Then it is checked for irritancy, erythema, and edema if any for an
interval up to 24 h and reported. According to the results all the three formulations that is
F1H, F2H and F3H showed no sign of irritancy, erythema and edema.

adequate viscosity.
Phase separation
Prepared cream was kept in a closed container at a temperature of 25-100 ℃ away from
light. Then phase separation was checked for 24 h for 30 d. Any change in the phase
separation was observed/checked. According to the results no phase separation was observed
in all the three formulations.
Spreadability
The spread ability of the three formulations that is F1H, F2H, and F3H was carried out and
out of that for F2H the time taken by the 2 slides to separate is less so as said in the

description of evaluation test lesser the time taken for separation of the two slides better the
spreadability so according to this statement F2H showed better spreadability.
Greasiness
Here the cream was applied on the skin surface in the form of smear and checked if the smear
was oily or grease-like. According to the results, we can say that all three formulations were
non-greasy.
