Utilisation of Biopolymer Combination as a Material for Making Gel Peel Off Mask

Abstract

Utilisation of biopolymers combination as a material for making gel peel off masks has been carried out. The purpose of this research to determine the combination of biopolymers. It can be formulated in dosage form Gel peel off mask and find out that single and combination biopolymers have different viscosity effects in the preparation of gel peel off masks. Tests on the preparation of peel off gel masks include homogeneity test, organoleptic observation, pH measurement, determination of viscosity, time testing of the preparation dried up, stability observation and statistical analysis test with SPSS 16.0 software which includes viscosity stability test using ANOVA parametric analysis method (Analysis of Variance) and continued with Duncan's test. The results showed that each formula of peel off gel mask combined with a single biopolymer and a combination of biopolymers had a pH of 5.4 5.8, viscosity 31790 cp 38240 cp, and the time needed to dry up 21-27 minutes in storage for 12 weeks. The results of the statistical analysis of the viscosity stability test of the six formulas of peel off gel mask using ANOVA method showed a significant difference between each formula (P value <0.05). The combination of biopolymer in formula 5 (Chitosan 0.0625% + Xanthan gum 0.0625%) in the preparation of peel-off gel mask gave a higher viscosity effect compared to other formulas
