ABSTRACT:
Cold creams, traditionally valued in cosmetic applications, function primarily as water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions that provide an occlusive barrier to reduce transepidermal water loss, thereby enhancing skin hydration. The present study focuses on the formulation and in-vitro evaluation of cold cream using conventional excipients with the inclusion of oud as a natural aromatic agent. Three formulations (F1, F2, F3) were developed with varying concentrations of key ingredients such as borax, beeswax, and liquid paraffin. The formulations were subjected to organoleptic, physicochemical, and microbiological evaluations, including tests for pH, spreadability, viscosity, homogeneity, phase stability, and microbial contamination. All formulations exhibited acceptable pH values (4.9–5.9), stable emulsions without phase separation, and absence of microbial growth. Notably, formulation F1 demonstrated superior spreadability, suggesting improved user compliance. The results affirm that the formulated cold creams possess desirable cosmetic properties and are suitable for topical application, highlighting the potential of integrating traditional aromatic substances in modern skincare formulations
