Techniques of additional Kappaphycus alvarezii on seaweed face mask production
Abstract
The need for a wide variety of cosmetic products such as masks that require natural active ingredients provides an opportunity for the use of seaweed as a cosmetic ingredient. Kappaphycus alvarezii, one carragaenophtytes, capable of forming a gel in the seaweed to produce good pasta. Ultraviolet radiation is one cause of skin damage all concerned in the cosmetic industry. These include skin damage is skin ageing, several changes in the skin, and skin cancer. Some studies found that some types of seaweed that have antioxidant potential can be applied in cosmetics. Applications antioxidants compounds in cosmetics have functioned as an anti-ageing, protection of body cells, bleach, and UV light protective. Mechanical processing products face mask with the addition of seaweed in BBP2HP through two phases, flouring processes raw materials and making processes seaweed facial mask. Face mask-making techniques with seaweed addition initiated by heating and mixing the oil phase, the aqueous phase, and filler. The addition of seaweed into the face mask can form a thermo-reversible gel that can stabilize the mask preparation and the result of mask-shaped is pasta.
