Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Harumanis mango (Mangifera indica var. Harumanis) leaves are rich in natural antioxidants and bioactive compounds, making them a promising ingredient in personal care innovations. This study presents the development of Harumanis Luxe Bomb, an eco-friendly bath bomb formulated using Harumanis mango leaf extract. The product aims to offer a natural alternative to synthetic-based bath products by utilizing plant-derived antioxidants known for their skin-soothing and rejuvenating properties. The leaves were extracted using ethanolic extraction, and the extract was incorporated into the bath bomb formulation. Preliminary antioxidant activity was confirmed via DPPH assay, indicating potential benefits for skin protection against oxidative stress. The bath bomb also demonstrated appealing effervescence, aroma, and skin feel during product testing. This innovation showcases the value-added potential of agricultural by-products and supports the development of sustainable, locally sourced wellness products.
