Physical Evaluation and Anti-Aging Effect of Red Bean Ethanolic Extract (Vigna angularis (Wild.) Ohwi & Ohashi) Peel-Off Gel Mask

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The product development of an anti-aging dosage for human skin is a very interesting issue because every human wants to be looked young as long as possible. A studies and development of plant that contain of antioxidant properties need to be studied further.
 AIM: The aim of this research was to formulate and evaluate the physical and anti-aging effect of the Peel-Off Gel Mask from Red Bean Ethanol Extract (PGMRB).
 METHODS: The Extract Ethanol of Red Bean was extracted by maceration methods with ethanol 96%. The Peel-off base was consisted of Polyvinyl alcohol, glycerin and carbomer 940. The gel formulation was made in 3 formulas (F1, F2, and F3) consisted with 1%, 3% and 5% ethanol extract, respectively. The blank formula (F0) was also prepared as a control formula. The evaluation of gel formulation included organoleptic test, pH determination, stability test, homogeneity test, peeling time, irritation test and anti-aging effect test included moisture level, skin pore size, the evenness test and dark spot test by using skin analyzer.
 RESULTS: All of the formula showed a homogen, pH around 6, peeling time less than 20 minutes, no irritation and stable for 12 weeks storage at room temperature. The treatment with PGMRB demonstrated an improvement on the moisture level, pore size, evenness and the number of black spots with F3 containing 5% extract as the best formula.
 CONCLUSION: The ethanol extract of red bean can be formulated become a peel-off gel mask and having the anti-aging effect.

“…The evaluation of parameters such as texture, odor, and color of gel formulation was performed for 28 days to assess the physical characteristics of the formula. 3…”

“…The measurement was done in triplicate for every sample. 3 Gel Drying time 1 g of gel was applied to the skin in 7 cm x 7 cm area and left until the gel became dry. The time needed for the gel to become a film was measured using stopwatch.…”

“…One of the strategies that has been widely implemented is the development in cosmetic area. 1 In the pharmaceutical industry, there are formulations that have been developed, such as cream, 2 peel off gel mask, 3 or phytosomal gel, 4 and nearly all of these formulations use natural plant sources as part of the ingredients. Antioxidant is one of the solutions that can help prevent the aging symptoms.…”

“…The aging process is an inevitable physiological process that will be experienced by every human being. This process is irreversible which covers all organs of the body including the skin [10], but anti aging definition is not always meaning the biological process that changes in organism; it has been changed and emphasizes more on the quality of life [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19].…”

“…In addition, Choi et al (2016) also researched the protective effect of apigenin on aging skin using a cream containing apigenin by examining the levels of elasticity, wrinkles, smoothness, and skin moisture [17]. Then Prasetyo et al [18] also researched physical evaluation and anti-aging effects of peel-off gel masks from red bean extract by observing the increase in moisture content, pore size, fineness, and the number of dark spots using a skin analyzer.…”
