ABSTRACT

Herbal wet wipes are a viable substitute for conventional wipes, tackling worries regarding chemical composition and ecological effects while offering advantages for skin health. This research uses non-woven fabric as the substrate and focuses on the formulation and assessment of herbal wet wipes. Selected plant extracts or essential oils with antibacterial and skin-soothing qualities are incorporated into the recipe. Testing the herbal wet wipes' antimicrobial activity against common skin bacteria and fungus allows for an evaluation of their effectiveness. Testing for skin sensitivity is done to determine safety and suitability for different skin types. To guarantee product integrity under various storage circumstances, stability testing is carried out by incorporating extracts of Azadirachta indica (Neem), Aloe barbadensis, Tulsi, and Clove Extract. Thus, the final cloth will include qualities like softness, antimicrobial, and anti-allergy for adults and infants. The intended application of the fabric material is to improve skin health through the use of wet wipes.
