Wortel memiliki kandungan β-karoten yang berpotensi sebagai tabir surya. Krim merupakan sediaan yang memberi rasa nyaman pada penggunaan kulit, sehingga dilakukan pengembangan formula sediaan krim ekstrak wortel (Daucus carota L.) sebagai krim tabir surya. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengoptimasi formula sediaan krim ekstrak wortel dengan variasi nilai HLB kombinasi emulgator Span 60 dan Tween 80. Ekstrak diformulasikan ke dalam krim yang dibagi menjadi tiga formula yaitu formula I, formula II, formula III berturut-turut 11,395; 9,335; dan 10,365. Penentuan formula terbaik didapatkan dari evaluasi sediaan krim yang meliputi uji organoleptis, uji homogenitas, uji pH, uji daya sebar, uji daya lekat dan uji SPF.Analisis data menggunakan uji One Way Anova hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan emulgator kombinasi span 60 dan tween 80 dapat menghasilkan sediaan krim yang memenuhi mutu fisik yang baik. Uji SPF diuji menggunakan uji Kruskal Wallis dilanjutkan uji Mann Whitney hasilnya formula 1 memiliki serapan SPF yang paling tinggi artinya optimasi emulgator span 60 dan tween 80 dapat mempengaruhi aktivitas kadar tabir surya pada krim. Hasil penelitian ini krim variasi nilai HLB kombinasi emulgator span 60 dan tween 80 dengan nilai HLB 11,365 lebih sesuai untuk formula sediaan krim ekstrak wortel karena memiliki serapan SPF tertinggi.
