optimation of hand body lotion formula from green tea(camelia sinensis) extract
<p><em><strong>Abstract.</strong></em><em> The </em><em>aim</em><em> of this </em><em>experiment</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>optimiz</em><em>ing</em><em> the preparation of hand body lotion </em><em>from </em><em>tea leaf extract. Some compositions were chosen which were previously oriented to get good preparation consistency. The method used by mixing part A which consists of cetil alcohol, lanolin, stearic acid heated to 70</em><em><sup>0</sup></em><em>c, and part B consists of glycerol, triethanolamine, paraben</em><em> metal</em><em> and aquadest which </em><em>were</em><em> also heated at the same temperature</em><em>, then </em><em>stirred until homogeneous and tea leaf extract </em><em>was</em><em> added. </em><em>Then,</em><em> the hand body lotion produced w</em><em>as</em><em> tested. The test results of hand</em><em> </em><em>body lotion showed a stable preparation from testing for 3 weeks with a semi-solid form, </em><em>green</em><em> colo</em><em>u</em><em>r, </em><em>aroma of </em><em>tea, and homogenity, pH of preparation 7, dispersion test</em><em> :</em><em> </em><em>2.8 x3.1 cm2 - 7x8 cm2, adhesion test </em><em>: </em><em>0.73 seconds - 02.3 seconds. </em><em>The result of i</em><em>rritation test </em><em>showed</em><em> </em><em>that the hand body lotion is </em><em>safe or non-irritating in 10 respondents.</em><em> The</em><em> </em><em>c</em><em>onclusion </em><em>of this experiment is t</em><em>he hand body lotion produced is safe according to the requirements.</em></p><em><strong>Keywords:</strong></em><em> Hand</em><em> </em><em>body lotion, green tea leaf extract, maceration, skin.</em>
