A Comparative Study Of Cosmetics Properties Of Neem (Azadirachta Indica) And Avocado Pear (Persea Americana):- Chima Gideon C
ABSTRACT
Cosmetics can
be said to be any powder, lotion, lipstick, rouge, or other preparation for
beautifying the face, skin, hair, nails, etc. The aim of this project research
was to produce body lotion and essential oil using Neem (Azadirachta indica)
and Avocado pear (Persea americana). The materials, were sourced from N lichael
Okpara university ofAgriculture, and extraction was carried out in the
laboratory using SOXHLEX EXTRACTION METHOD, and after which, various tests such
as tests for the physical properties, chemical properties and zones of inhibition
were carried out on tire oils to determine their physiochemical properties,
anti-microbial activities and bacterial strain. The results gotten showed the
different characteristics such as oxidation, viscosity, moisture content etc.
of the body lotions produced from these two plant materials, their reaction
against microorganisms, oil yields etc. It was noticed that the pomades and
essential oils or lotion from Azadirachta indica prevent microbial actions and
yield more oil than Persea americana which has higher shelflife and also higher
moisture content, meaning it's prone to oxidation.
