Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Peel Off Mask

Research Article

Abstract

Peel-off masks have gained widespread popularity and preference due to their convenient application. The gel-based variant is particularly favored for its painless and moisturizing sensation during use. A peel-off mask is a type of application gently applied to the facial skin surface and peeled off after a few minutes, serving as a remedy for various facial skin issues such as wrinkles, aging, acne, and aiding in unclogging pores blocked by dust. The choice of a gel-based formulation enhances ease of use and ensures better drug release. Peel-off gel masks formulated with natural ingredients like green tea, fenugreek, lemon powder, and honey are known for their effective, stable, and safe properties. These masks are designed to address skin concerns and are available in a gel form. The removal of dead skin is facilitated by the application of peel-off masks. Common skin issues prevalent among individuals aged 18-25, such as acne and oily skin, are effectively targeted by these masks. The current study focuses on the development and evaluation of a topical peel-off gel mask containing a blend of herbal powders (fenugreek, green tea, lemon, and honey) along with chemical reagents like polymers (polyvinyl alcohol) and isopropyl alcohol. Various testing methods were employed to assess the formulated peel-off mask, and it demonstrated significant positive results when applied to healthy female volunteers
