The present study focuses on the formulation and evaluation of herbal paper soap prepared using extracts of Punica granatum (pomegranate) and Curcuma longa (turmeric). The aim of the study is to develop an eco-friendly, portable, and skin cleansing product that combines the natural antibacterial and antioxidant properties of herbal ingredients. The paper soap was formulated by incorporating pomegranate peel extract and turmeric extract into a biodegradable, water-soluble paper base along with suitable surfactant and stabilizer. The prepared herbal paper soap was evaluated for various parameters such as pH, foam retention, moisture content, stability study. The results showed that the formulated soap possessed a balanced pH suitable for skin, good foaming properties, and effective cleansing action. The herbal extracts enhanced the antibacterial efficiency and provided additional skin-nourishing and antioxidant benefits. The study concludes that the combination of Punica granatum and Curcuma longa extracts can be successfully used in the preparation of herbal paper soap, offering a natural, safe, and sustainable alternative to synthetic cleansing products.
