Antibacterial Test Peel-Off Gel Mask Anti-Acne from Combination of Matoa Fruit Peels Extract (Pometia pinnata Forst) and Red Fruit Juice (Pandanus conoideus Lamk.)

Abstract

Matoa fruit peels extract and red fruit juice has antibacterial activity against bacterial acne. The availability of peel-off masks is selected in formulations to make them easier to use and to provide a better release of active substances. The study aims to determine the physical quality and antibacterial activity of the peel-off gel mask anti-acne combination of matoa fruit peels extract and red fruit juice. The results of this study indicate that the availability of a peel-off gel mask anti-acne combination of matoa fruit peels extract (Pometia pinnata Forst) and red fruit juice (Pandanus conoideus Lamk.) of 5 formulas produces a peel-off gel mask that meets the requirements of the organoleptic test, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, adhesion, and drying time. The research result showed that the peel-off gel mask anti-acne combination of matoa fruit peels extract and red fruit juice inhibited the growth of S. aureus and S. epidermidis at least concentration 0.05% : 1% (F1) with inhibition zone diameter of 11.68 mm dan 13.19 mm, respectively. The least significant difference test showed there was no different inhibition zone in each concentration of the peel-off gel mask antiacne combination of matoa fruit peels extract and red fruit juice against S. aureus dan S. epidermidis.
