Abstract

Coconut shells are widely used as an ingredient in charcoal for cooking, daily use, and also to make activated charcoal. Activated charcoal has the ability to clean and absorb dirt on the skin, but this has not been widely used. So the purpose of this research is the use of coconut shell-activated charcoal in making liquid hand wash formulations. This research used 4 liquid hand wash formulations with activated charcoal concentrations of 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%. Organoleptic test parameters were texture, color, scent, and homogeneity. The organoleptic test results showed the distinctive color of charcoal liquid hand wash, which has a distinctive scent with the addition of essential oils. The hedonic test on 25 panelists showed that the most preferred formula for activated charcoal hand wash was F2 (2% of coconut shell activated charcoal) with rose scent.
