Formulation and evaluation of coconut oil body cream

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study presents the formulation and evaluation of a coconut oil-based body cream incorporating natural ingredients such as aloe vera gel, vitamin E oil, and beeswax, with Liquid Germall Plus as a preservative. The objective was to develop a stable, skin-friendly formulation with moisturising, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. The cream was prepared by blending oil and aqueous phases at controlled temperatures, followed by incorporation of active ingredients. This final product was evaluated for the organoleptic properties, pH, stability, and irritancy potential. The formulation demonstrated excellent stability, favourable sensory attributes, and was well-tolerated on skin, supporting its potential as a natural skincare product.
