Formulation and Evaluation of Peel-off Masks Durian Seed Ethanol Extract (Durio zibethinus murr) with the Basis of the Gelatin of Tilapia Scales (Oreochromis niloticus)
Introduction
The world of beauty is constantly evolving, with new and innovative products emerging every day. One such innovation is the peel-off mask based on durian seed extract (Durio zibethinus murr) formulated with gelatin from tilapia scales (Oreochromis niloticus). This study focuses on the use of durian seeds, which are rich in secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, triterpenoids, phenolics, and flavonoids, which have anti-aging activity. The use of gelatin from tilapia scales provides an alternative to traditional gelatin sources, making it a more acceptable option for the community.
Research Background
Durian seeds, often considered a waste product from the fruit, have great potential in the field of cosmetics. Not only do they contain good nutrition, but they have also been proven to have significant anti-aging activity. However, traditional gelatin used in mask formulations often comes from pig skin, causing controversy in its use. This study aims to develop peel-off masks with materials that are more acceptable to the community, namely gelatin from tilapia scales.
Research Methods
In this study, durian seeds were extracted using a maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent. A phytochemical screening test was performed on simplicia powder and durian seed ethanol extract to determine the content of active compounds. Peel-off mask preparations were formulated with gelatin variations as much as F1 (1%), F2 (2%), and F3 (3%), while F0 as control without extracts. Evaluation of peel-off masks included various organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, spread power, adhesion, drying time, stability, and irritation tests, as well as anti-aging activity.
Results and Discussion
Durian seed extraction results showed a percentage of 13.14%. Phytochemical screening showed that both simplicia powder and durian seed ethanol extract contained alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, and triterpenoids. The peel-off mask evaluation test showed the color of the preparation ranging from turbid white to dark brown with a typical aroma of durian seeds. In addition, the pH of the preparation was in the range of 5.10-5.43 and viscosity of 2100-2500 CPS, which shows good consistency for applications.
The results of the anti-aging activity test showed that the 2% gelatin concentration provided humidity recovery of 35.29%, pore size 23.08%, the number of stains was 20.48%, and the number of wrinkles 23.23%. This shows that this peel-off mask preparation is effective in providing anti-aging benefits, with good consistency and stability.
Conclusion
Ethanol extract durian fruit seeds can be formulated into a peel-off mask preparation that meets the requirements and is stable in storage for up to 12 weeks. Variations in the concentration of gelatin from tilapia scales affect the characteristics of the peel-off masks of durian seed extract. From the results of the study, the peel-off mask preparation with 2% gelatin concentration has good anti-aging activity and better consistency than other preparations. This study made a positive contribution to the use of durian seeds in cosmetic products, as well as providing alternative halal and safe for consumers.
Future Directions
This study opens up new possibilities for the use of durian seeds in cosmetic products. Future studies can focus on the optimization of the extraction process, the development of new formulations, and the evaluation of the long-term effects of the peel-off mask preparation. Additionally, the use of gelatin from tilapia scales can be explored further, potentially leading to the development of new and innovative products.
Limitations
This study has several limitations. The use of a small sample size and the limited number of gelatin concentrations used may not be representative of the entire population. Additionally, the study only evaluated the anti-aging activity of the peel-off mask preparation, and further studies are needed to evaluate its other benefits.
Recommendations
Based on the results of this study, it is recommended that the peel-off mask preparation with 2% gelatin concentration be further developed and commercialized. Additionally, the use of gelatin from tilapia scales should be explored further, potentially leading to the development of new and innovative products.
Conclusion
In conclusion, this study demonstrates the potential of durian seeds as a source of active compounds for cosmetic products. The peel-off mask preparation with 2% gelatin concentration has good anti-aging activity and better consistency than other preparations. This study made a positive contribution to the use of durian seeds in cosmetic products, as well as providing alternative halal and safe for consumers.
