Comparative Study of Formulation and Evaluation of Organic Hair Serum from Orange Peel

The study focuses on developing an organic hair serum using orange peel, a bioactive agent from Citrus sinensis, known for its antioxidant, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory properties beneficial for scalp and hair health. Three formulations (F1, F2, and F3) were created, incorporating orange peel extract with carrier oils and natural additives. These formulations were evaluated for physicochemical characteristics, phytochemical content, and stability. Formulation F3 showed superior stability, phytochemical content, and overall effectiveness. The research suggests that orange peel-based hair serum can improve hair texture, reduce dandruff, and promote healthy hair growth, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly cosmetic solution. Further research could enhance its commercial viability in the herbal cosmetic market.
