Abstract

A The objective of the present study was to develop a facial mask using polyvinyl alcohol as a film-forming agent with an anti-acne active ingredient (Punica granatum/pomegranate extract). Formulations with varying concentrations of polyvinyl alcohol were prepared using glycerin and sorbitol as wetting agents. Organoleptic tests, drying tests, film formation assessments, pH measurements, temperature stress, and freeze-thaw cycles were conducted. The formulation containing 10% polyvinyl alcohol and a combination of glycerin and sorbitol demonstrated the best results and was selected for the addition of the active ingredient. The formulations remained stable at room temperature for 60 days, dried efficiently, and formed a removable film. The pH levels of the facial masks were found to be compatible with the skin's pH. Ultimately, an ideal anti-acne facial mask formulation was developed, and it is recommended that efficacy and safety tests be conducted prior to commercialization of the product.
