Abstract

Free radicals can cause oxidative damage to skin cells, causing aging. One way to overcome this is by adding antioxidants which can be obtained from natural ingredients such as aloe vera and strawberries. This study aims to determine the physical quality and antioxidant activity of aloe vera and strawberry peel-off gel masks. The research method is experimental. The research includes making aloe vera and strawberry peel-off gel masks with varying concentrations of F0 (0:0), F1 (25:75), F2 (50:50), and F3 (75:25). Physical quality tests include organoleptic, pH, homogeneity, spreadability, stickiness, and drying time as well as antioxidant activity tests. The research results showed that the organoleptic was in the form of a thick liquid in all formulas, a transparent white color with no smell in F0, a dark brown color with a typical extract smell in F1, a brown color with a typical extract smell in F2, a light brown color with a typical extract smell in F3. The homogeneity test results for all formulas are homogeneous. The pH value is slightly above the requirements. The spreadability, stickiness, and drying time of the peel-off gel mask meet the requirements. Antioxidant activity obtained IC50 values ​​of 212.36 µg/mL (F0); 139.53 µg/ (F1); 71.45 (F2); and 116.31 µg/mL (F3). The best formula obtained was F2 because it met the physical quality requirements and had the strongest antioxidant activity. In conclusion, aloe vera and strawberries can be used as active sources of antioxidants in cosmetics.
