Understanding of hydrating skin: development of body wash serum enriched with moringa oil
Moringa oleifera Lam. is known as drumstick or horseradish and it is a perennial tree that belongs to the Moringaceae family. The demand for natural and sustainable personal care products has led to increased interest in plant-based ingredients with potential benefits for skin health. Moringa oil is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and moisturizing properties, making it an attractive ingredient for skin care products. The formulation consisted of Moringa seed oil, castor oil, avocado oil, and vanilla essential oil, blended with a surfactant system derived from natural sources and a sodium lauryl ether sulphate. The study shows improvements in skin hydration, elasticity, and firmness, reduction in skin irritation and dryness. This study suggest that the formulated body wash serum enriched with Moringa oil is a safe and effective natural and sustainable alternative to other body wash products. This contributes to the development of natural and sustainable personal care products that promote skin health and well-being such as hydrating, soothing, healing, moisturising and has an anti-aging effect while also cleansing the skin thoroughly. The main objective of this, is to bring down the maintenance of the face to the whole body .
