Abstract  
The sweet orange peel (Citrus x sinensis L.) possesses antioxidant properties that can be harnessed for developing a  
pharmaceutical preparation based on natural ingredients, particularly in skin care products such as body scrubs.  
Meanwhile, coconut pulp (Cocos nucifera L.) has a textural quality that lends itself to use as a scrubbing agent, capable  
of removing dead skin cells. This study aimed to ascertain the antioxidant activity of body scrub formulations with  
varying concentrations of extract. The results of the phytochemical screening indicated the presence of alkaloids,  
flavonoids, tannins, and triterpenoids. Three formulations of body scrub were prepared, designated FI (1.25%  
extract), FII (2.5% extract), and FIII (5% extract). The results of the physical tests demonstrated that the organoleptic,  
pH, spreadability, and adhesion tests met the requisite standards. In the antioxidant activity test with the DPPH  
reagent, the IC50 value of each formula is as follows: The results demonstrated that the IC50 value of each formula  
was 7.28 ppm (very strong) for FI, 11.839 ppm (very strong) for FII, and 17.354 ppm (very strong) for FIII.

Introduction  
Another natural ingredient that can be utilized in  
the formulation of body scrub preparations is  
coconut pulp (Cocos nucifera L.). Coconut pulp is  
a source of gluten-free protein that is low in fat  
and can moisturize the skin. The nutritional  
composition of coconut pulp includes 5.78%  
protein, 38.24% fat, and 15.07% crude fibre. The  
coarse grains in coconut pulp can be used as a  
scrub to remove dead skin cells [8].  
The skin is the body's outermost layer, protecting  
against external influences, particularly on  
tissues and organs. Any damage to the skin will  
impact  
human  
aesthetics,  
health,  
and  
appearance [1]. The primary causes of skin  
damage are ultraviolet (UV) exposure and  
exposure to pollution containing free radicals [2].  
Implementing particular skin care regimens is  
imperative to circumvent damage caused by free  
radical compounds from sun exposure and other  
factors [3]. Such processes may be facilitated  
through the use of cosmetic preparations.  
Based on literature research, researchers are  
interested in developing the potential of orange  
peel and coconut pulp for several reasons. First,  
orange peels have high antioxidant activity based  
on their IC50 value. Second, high antioxidant  
activity can ward off free radicals, thus  
preventing damage to the skin. Third, the texture  
of coconut pulp, which tends to be rough, makes  
this material suitable as a scrubbing agent rather  
than synthetic materials, which are quite  
expensive, and no research discusses the  
combination of sweet orange peels and coconut  
pulp as a body scrub. This research is expected  
to reduce and manage organic waste in other  
forms and emphasize using natural ingredients  
with antioxidant and exfoliating benefits, which  
are the main points of body scrubs and help  
develop the concept of natural ingredient-based  
skin care products currently trending.  
Cosmetics are substances or mixtures applied to  
the external surfaces of the human body or the  
teeth and mucous membranes with the intention  
of cleansing, imparting a fragrant sensation,  
providing  
protection,  
or  
enhancing  
the  
appearance of specific body parts [4]. Based on  
research on literature, there has been a notable  
increase in awareness regarding the significance  
of skin health, which has led to a considerable  
rise  
in  
demand  
for  
cosmetic  
products,  
particularly those designed for skin care. One of  
the cosmetic dosage forms utilized in the domain  
of skin care is the body scrub. A body scrub is a  
liquid or semi-solid emulsion preparation that  
provides moisture, restores skin softness, and  
removes dead skin cell impurities caused by  
external exposure, such as free radicals from  
sunlight [5].  
Material and Methods  
Materials and Instrumentations  
Developing body scrub dosage formulations  
using natural ingredients containing antioxidant  
compounds can be an alternative to prevent skin  
damage. Sweet orange peel (Citrus sinensis L.)  
contains flavonoid compounds with antioxidant,  
anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties.  
These activities avoid skin damage, such as  
inflammation and premature ageing [6]. Based  
on research conducted on sweet orange peel  
(Citrus sinensis L.), flavonoid content and  
antioxidant activity were found in it. The IC50 test  
results on sweet orange peel extract showed an  
IC50 value of 18.792 ppm, which showed  
antioxidant activity in the strong category. Other  
studies have shown that sweet orange peels also  
contain vitamin C. Therefore, sweet orange peel  
extract has the potential to be developed into  
cosmetic preparations [7].  
Sweet orange peel (Citrus x sinensis L.) collected  
from Citrus Distributor in Cempaka Putih, Jambi  
City, Indonesia. This study's coconut pulp (Cocos  
nucifera L.) was taken from the Santan Squeeze  
Shop in Kasang Pudak, Muaro Jambi Regency,  
Indonesia. The chemicals used were distilled  
water, 96% ethanol and methanol p.a (PT.  
Kisbiokim), Triethanolamine (PETRONAS), Cethyl  
Alcohol (Emercol®), Methyl Paraben and Propyl  
Paraben (Ueno®), Propylene Glycol (Hi-Tech  
Spring), Stearic Acid (PT. Wilmar), Oleum citri (PT.  
Kimia Jaya Labora). For reagents used are DPPH  
(Sigma Aldrich), Mayer (PT. Kimia Jaya Labora),  
Dragendorff (PT. Kimia Jaya Labora), Sulfuric Acid  
(PT. Kimia Jaya Labora), Anhydrous Acetic Acid  
(Mahavero Chems), FeCl3 1% (PT. Kimia Jaya  
Labora), NaOH 10% (PT. Kimia Jaya Labora) and

Chloroform (PT. Kimia Jaya Labora). Tools were  
prepared, such as beaker glass (Iwaki®), stirring  
rod, drop pipette, Sudip, mortar, stamper,  
porcelain cup, analytical balance (Pioneer),  
water bath (Memmert®), rotary evaporator

cleaning the coconut dregs from visible  
impurities. Then, the coconut pulp was washed  
thoroughly to remove the remnants of invisible  
impurities and other residues. After that, the  
sample is then roasted in a pan to dry while  
maintaining the colour of the coconut pulp,  
which is still white and not brownish.  
Sweet Orange Peel Extraction and Phytochemical  
Screening. The extraction process was carried out  
using the maceration method and ethanol  
solvent, and dry simplisia orange peels that had  
been mashed were weighed as much as 500 g.  
The maceration process was carried out with the  
ratio between simplisia powder and solvent at  
1:10 (%w/v). Simplisia was macerated for 4 x 24  
hrs and routinely shaken once a day. After that,  
the results of maceration, called the macerate,  
are then filtered and evaporated with a rotary  
evaporator until a thick extract is obtained and  
phytochemical screening is carried out, which  
includes alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins,  
and triterpenoids [10].  
Methods  
Preparation of Citrus x sinensis Peel Extract. Sweet  
orange peels are taken from orange ice vendors  
or businesses that use sweet orange fruit. The  
sorting process involves criteria like smooth,  
shiny, and firm orange peels. After sorting, the  
peels were washed with running water to remove  
impurities. The orange peel waste obtained is  
thinly sliced and dried at 60oC for 24 hr. The dried  
orange peels were pulverized using a blender [9],  
[10].

Preparation of the Body Scrub. The preparation of  
the body scrub entails the mixing of the oil phase  
and water phase in a heated mortar. The  
ingredients of the oil phase (stearic acid and cetyl  
alcohol) and the water phase (propylene glycol,  
propylparaben, methylparaben, triethanolamine,  
92  
Chempublish Journal, 8(2) 2024, 90-100  
and glycerin) were weighed. Subsequently,  
previously weighed, the oil and water phases are  
placed in separate porcelain dishes and heated  
with a water bath at a temperature of ±75°C until  
complete melting occurs. Once the oil phase has  
melted, it should be placed in a hot mortar, and  
the water phase should be added gradually until  
wavelength of 500 - 550 nm. The test sample  
used is the extract weighed as much as 100 mg,  
added methanol p.a as much as 100 mL, and  
then vortexed. From the stock solution, 10, 20,  
30, 40, and 50 ppm concentrations were taken,  
and methanol was added until the limit mark.  
DPPH solution was pipetted as much as 4 mL and  
put into a volumetric flask. Then, the test solution  
in various concentration series that have been  
prepared is added to as much as 1 mL. The  
mixture was then allowed to stand for 30 min at  
37oC, and the absorbance was read using UV-Vis  
a
homogeneous  
mixture  
is  
formed.  
Subsequently, the hot water should be added  
gradually until a cream phase is formed. Once  
the cream has been formed, it should be cooled  
and combined with rice starch and coconut pulp  
until a homogeneous mixture is achieved.  
Subsequently, the ethanol extract of orange peel  
should be added gradually until a homogeneous  
mixture is formed. Once the mixture has reached  
a homogeneous consistency, the oleum citri can  
be added [11].

The percentage of antioxidant activity and value  
is calculated based on the ratio between the  
sample solution and its interaction with the DPPH  
reagent using equation 1.  
Physical Quality Test of Body Scrub Preparation.  
The purpose of conducting physical quality  
testing of body scrub preparations is to ensure  
that the body scrub formula meets the specified  
requirements and is suitable for application to  
the skin. Physical quality tests were conducted,  
including organoleptic analysis, spreadability  
assessment, adhesion evaluation, and pH  
measurement. Organoleptic testing is carried out  
by looking at the body scrub in terms of colour,  
odour and texture and comparing it with other  
formulas. Spreadability testing is carried out by  
placing the preparation on a petri dish and  
covering it with a petri dish, then giving it a weight

Antioxidant Activity of Body Scrub. In testing the  
antioxidant activity of body scrub, a 100 mg  
sample was weighed and then diluted with 100  
mL methanol p.a. Then, the concentration value  
of the extract contained in the body scrub was  
calculated. Based on the calculation results, FI  
has a concentration variation of 1.25, 2.5, 3.75, 5,  
and 6.25 ppm. In FII, the concentration variations  
used in the test are 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, and 12.5 ppm.  
For FIII, the concentration variations used were 5,  
10, 15, 20, and 25 ppm. All concentrations were  
measured, and the per cent inhibition was  
calculated to determine the IC50 value.  
Adhesion testing is carried out by placing the  
preparation on an adhesion test tool and then  
calculating the time until the glass plate on the  
tool separates. pH measurements are carried out  
using a pH meter, where the body scrub is first  
diluted with distilled water, then the electrode is  
dipped to determine the pH of the body scrub  
made [12].  
Determination of Antioxidant Activity. DPPH  
solution is prepared by weighing DPPH crystals  
and dissolved with methanol p.a in a measuring  
flask. In the determination, as much as 5 mg of  
DPPH was weighed with a solvent volume of 100  
mL to obtain  
concentration of 50 ppm. DPPH solution at a  
concentration of 50 ppm was read at  
Hedonic and Irritation Test. Hedonic testing uses  
panellists to assess the body scrub preparations  
based on aroma, colour, and texture suitability.

Panelists will give a score of 1-5, with the number  
1 (one) being very disliked and 5 (five) meaning  
very like [14]. [14]. Meanwhile, the irritation test  
was carried out to determine the level of  
irritation caused when the preparation was  
applied to the skin. Tests were carried out for 0,  
24, 48, and 72 hr, and the level of irritation was  
seen on a scale of 1-5, where number 1 (one)  
indicates severe irritation and number 5 (five)  
indicates no irritation [15].  
Results and Discussions  
Secondary Metabolites of Extracts  
The extract obtained has a percentage of  
27.114%. Based on the Indonesian Herbal  
Pharmacopoeia, a good extract has a percentage  
above 7.5%, which is declared to meet the  
requirements [16]. Phytochemical testing was  
carried out on the ethanol extract of sweet  
orange peel, and the results were obtained in the  
following Table 2.

Organoleptical of Body Scrub.  
In the odour of body scrub, it was found that both  
K-, FI, FII, and FIII preparations had a distinctive  
smell, namely the fragrance of citrus. This is due  
to the addition of oleum citri, which gives the  
sensation of citrus fragrance and helps cover  
rancid odours due to the addition of coconut  
pulp. The texture of the three formulas is rough  
but not irritating to the skin. Indeed, body scrub  
preparations must have a rough texture because  
they remove dead skin cells. The bumpy texture  
is obtained from adding coconut pulp and rice  
starch  
The parameters observed in the organoleptic test  
of body scrub preparations include the  
preparation's colour, aroma, and texture [14].  
Based on colour, only FI is ivory white, while FII  
and FIII are yellow. This can occur due to different  
extract concentrations in the formula where the  
extract in FI is only 1.25% while FII and FIII use  
extracts as much as 2.5% and 5%. (Figure 1)  
Meanwhile, the negative control only has a white  
colour, and this is because there is no added  
extract to K-.

The spreadability test on the preparation is  
intended to determine the ability of  
a
preparation to spread on the skin's surface so  
that the active substances contained in the body  
scrub preparation can spread evenly. In this test,  
the value of good spreadability in body scrubs is  
5.0-7.0 cm [17]. Based on the test results, it was  
found that FII did not meet the requirements with  
a spreadability value of 4.96 ± 0.408 cm. In  
contrast to FI, FIII, and K- which have a  
spreadability of 5.01 ± 0.311 cm, 5.01 ± 0.503 cm  
and 5.00 ± 0,334 cm. This is due to the  
consistency of the body scrub preparation, which  
is too dense, so more pressure is required to  
apply it.

Antioxidant Activity of Extract and Body Scrub  
Body Scrub Adhesion Test  
Initially, measurement was carried out towards  
blank absorbance. Absorbance measurements  
were carried out on DPPH blanks, which were  
repeated three times, known as triplo (Table 7).  
The average absorbance value of the DPPH blank  
was 0.852. This average value will be used to  
calculate each sample's inhibition percentage to  
be tested.  
The adhesion test of the preparation is carried  
out to determine the contact ability of a  
preparation, especially body scrub, to the skin,  
which is the place of application. Good body  
scrub adhesion is not less than 4 sec [5]. Based  
on the test results, the stickiness of FI scrub was  
obtained at 5.39 ± 0.342 sec. While FII was at 5.91  
± 0.095 sec, FIII was at 6.20 ± 0.121 sec and K- was  
at 5.51 ± 0.464 sec. The stickiness of the

body scrub preparation ranges from 4.5 to 8.0  
[17]. Based on the pH test results of all formulas,  
the pH value of FI was 6.98 ± 0.745; FII was 7.26 ±

Antioxidant activity determines a sample's ability  
to protect against free radicals. On the skin, free  
radicals will cause dullness, hyperpigmentation  
and premature ageing [19]. Antioxidant activity  
testing was carried out on two types of samples,  
namely extracts and body scrubs. In this case,  
vitamin C was used as a comparator [13]. The  
sample's test results were then calculated as the  
percentage value of the inhibition to determine  
the IC50 value of the sample used. The IC50 value  
determines the ability to inhibit free radicals by  
50% against the sample calculated by linear  
regression (Figure 2) [20].

Based on the test results of the extract, the IC50  
value is 34.209 ppm, which is included in the  
category of powerful antioxidants. After testing  
each formula, the IC50 value for FI was 7.28 ppm,  
FII was 11.839 ppm, and FIII was 17.354 ppm. The  
three body scrub formulas have antioxidant

using SPSS with one-way ANOVA and Duncan  
methods. Based on the test results, the  
significance value of colour, aroma, and texture  
is above 0.05 (p> 0.05) with a significance value of  
0.512, 0.414, and 0.780, respectively, which  
means that there is no significant difference  
between each preparation formula in colour,  
aroma and texture [22].  
Hedonic Testing Results of Body Scrub. Hedonic  
testing was carried out to determine the  
panellist's preference level based on aroma,

Duncan's test was also carried out, a process that  
can determine a good preparation group. The  
Duncan test was carried out in hedonic testing to  
determine the panellists' liking of the 3 (three)  
preparation formulas. The highest subset value  
indicates the preferred formula. The results  
showed that FI excelled in assessing aroma,  
colour, and texture. This may occur because FII  
and FIII provide sharp colour and aroma when  
compared to FI, where FII and FIII have a greater  
concentration of extracts, emitting a sharper  
characteristic odour than FI [23].  
Irritation tests were carried out on FI, FII, and FIII  
test samples for 0, 24, 48, and 72 hr. Based on the  
results of reports from panellists, three panellists  
experienced irritation with details of the mild  
irritation category of two people and very mild  
irritation of one person. Irritation occurred 24 hr  
after use. Irritation occurs due to contact time,  
penetration rate, area, and the ingredients'  
toxicity level [24].
