Abstract:
Up to a certain period, the essential purpose of cosmetology was beautifying women. Makeup made her face more attractive by concealing imperfections. It should be considered that skin is an organ of the body, and like other organs, it reflects the physiological health. In this experimental research, there were obtained different alcoholic extracts from calendula and rosehip using three procedures: extraction by Soxhlet apparatus, extraction by simple refluxing, and maturation. The herbs extracts were incorporated into a base cream for an easier application on the skin. There were used SKH1 mice and their skin parameters were evaluated by noninvasive methods. The creams are good enough for human application, but it must care to the allergenic character of rosehip extracts.
