Abstract
A creamy formulation based on alovera gel and orange juice having potential antiageing effects has been developed. In-vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial studies revealed
the higher zone of inhibition (p<0.05) for the potential antiaging effects of the formulation. In-vivo studies (Swiss albino, rat) showed absence of edema, inflammation, pallor and itching. The formulation was also analyzed for saponification value, acid value, UV-visible, FTIR and particle size. The physical analysis of the cream revealed good emolliency and acceleration ability, less greasy with washability and homogenized form. The pH and viscosity of cream was computed as 5.10 ± 0.02 and 29,430 ± 0.04 cp.
