Turmeric (Curcuma longa), a widely used medicinal herb, is renowned for its potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, primarily due to its active compound Curcumin. Objective: To formulation and evaluation of Multipurpose Turmeric cream Aloe vera gel, Neem Extraction, ( Azadirachta India) Turmeric Extraction, Aloe vera, (Curcuma Longa) iso propyl alcohol, mix solvent, Method: The cream was formulated using a base composed of liquid paraffin, beeswax, methyl paraben, borax, distilled water, rose water, isopropyl alcohol, a mixing solvent, and extracts of turmeric, aloe vera, and neem. The preparation utilized the slab technique or extemporaneous method to ensure a geometric mixing of the ingredients, resulting in a smooth texture and proper integration of all components. Employing the slob wound healing technique, we developed three distinct batches of our herbal cream, designated as F1H, F2H, and F3H. Each batch underwent evaluation for various parameters, including physical characteristics, pH levels, irritancy, washability, phase separation, and spreadability. Results: All three formulations, namely F1H, F2H, and F3H, demonstrated an appealing appearance, exhibited a nearly neutral pH, and showed no signs of erythema, edema, or redness on the skin during the irritancy study. They were easily washable, had good spreadability, and did not experience phase separation. Furthermore, all three formulations were found to be stable at room temperature. Conclusion: The cream demonstrated a multifunctional effect through the incorporation of Aloe Vera gel, Neem, and Turmeric, with each herbal component exhibiting distinct significant activities. The findings indicate that all three formulations, F1H, F2H, and F3H, remain stable at room temperature and are safe for application on the skin.
