Manufacture of Leoria Hand Wash Soap

Abstract

The development of aloe vera leaf peel products into cosmetic products has not yet been widely explored, making it an alternative natural ingredient that can be developed as an antibacterial ingredient. Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) is a plant that contains anthocyanin pigments which have the potential to be developed as local natural dyes in various food industries. Liquid soap is a liquid preparation intended for cleaning the skin, made from soap base ingredients with added surfactants, preservatives, foam stabilizers, permitted fragrances and dyes, and can be used for bathing without irritating to the skin. This research aims to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The potential results expected from making "leoria" hand washing soap are that it contains buya tongue which can inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, and can also make the skin soft, not dry, and not irritate the skin.
