Abstract

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that can be formulated in a cream. VCO can be used as the oil phase in cream and can also function as an antioxidant, moisturizer and emollient. Object: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of concentration level VCO in formula 1 (3%), formula 2 (6%), formula 3 (9%), and formula 4 (12%) antioxidant vitamin E vanishing cream base for physical characteristics, the chemical characteristics (pH), and the stability test (freeze thaw), and determining levels of VCO which can give optimum results of characteristics. Result: Results of the homogeneity test cream show a homogeneous composition and is not visible to the graininess. The results showed that the pH value range between 6.553-7.146, the viscosity 12.000-26.000 cPs, and globule size distribution 0.2733-0.3220 mm, the results are analyzed using One-way ANOVA showed significant differences. For the measurement of pH after freeze thaw stability test ranges 5.604-6.428 and the dispersion power 0.0792-0.1243 g/cm no showed significant difference. Conclusion: Variation VCO in the formula 1, 2, 3, and 4 effects on the physical characteristics, chemical, stability test and VCO with concentration 12% give the best formula for optimal results.
