Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This review focuses on cosmeceuticals designed to enhance skin health and beauty. It delves into herbal plants like coconut, olive, sunflower, jojoba, and aloe vera for dry skin treatment, carrot, ginkgo, and Rhodiola rosea for anti-aging, and green tea, calendula, and turmeric for skin protection. Additionally, henna, neem, and shikakai are explored for anti-dandruff treatment, and the antioxidant properties of certain vitamins are discussed. The research indicates that herbal cosmetics are safe and effective alternatives to synthetic products. Herbs, rich in vitamins, offer anti-aging, revitalizing, and rejuvenating benefits. They possess anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and pain-relieving properties, making them effective against dandruff. Furthermore, their anti-septic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and insect-repellent qualities promote wound healing and skin protection. This review underscores the significance of herbal cosmetics and their advantages over synthetic counterparts. The findings demonstrate that herbal cosmetics are safe and free from the adverse reactions often associated with synthetic products.
