Abstract: The creation Of Compact Powder from potatoes. In light of the increasing demand for naturaland skin-friendly cosmetics, this study intends to use potatoes' (Solanum tuberosum)advantageous qualities to produce a compact powder that is safe, efficient, and reasonablypriced. Because of their high antioxidant, vitamin, and mineral content as well as their skin-soothing, anti-inflammatory, and brightening qualities, potatoes are perfect for cosmeticapplications. Potato starch is used as the main base element in this formulation because of itsabsorbent properties, which give the skin a matte, smooth finish. Potato extracts are also addedto the lotion to improve its moisturising and anti-aging properties. Additionally, naturalingredients like kaolin clay, arrowroot powder, and essential oils are added to improve texture,increase skin compatibility, and create a subtle scent. These components support skinhydration, oil regulation, and moderate antibacterial properties when paired with other herbaladditives like turmeric and aloe vera.
