- Abstract
- Herbal cosmetics are referred to as natural cosmetics formulated by a wide range of cosmetic ingredients in which herbal extract compounds play a vital role in the treatment of skin problems. There is currently increasing interest for bioactive compounds originating from herbal extracts for the body-care formulations due to a dramatic increase of consumer expectations worldwide. Generally, herbal extracts are incorporated into body-care cosmetic products to enhance human beauty; their functional features include antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antiseptic, and antimicrobial properties. In addition, herbal extracts show other beneficial features: mildness, efficacy, biodegradability, low toxicity, cleansing ability, emulsification, moisturization, skin appearance, feel of the product, fragrance, and lubrication. Therefore herbal body-care cosmetics have become more popular among the public. In this chapter, we provide a general description and definition of main compounds, advanced extraction techniques, and novel technologies for encapsulation and delivery of herbal extraction in body-care cosmetic formulations. Furthermore, some body-care products designed and developed based on herbal extracts are also discussed in depth. © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
