Introduction
A cream is a semisolid formulation comprising more than
20% of water and 50% of lipid vehicles usually to apply on skin.
A drug molecule is also incorporated by dissolving or dispersing
it in a suitable cream base. Various sorts of creams are accessible
in the market to protect the consistency of the skin. Many irritable
and unpleasant substances sticking on the skin includes skin
secretions, sweat, salts, sebum as well as deposits of dirt bounded
by oily substances require a special process of expulsion. Hence, a
vanishing cream is eminent in protecting the skin from the above
substances [1].
Most of the existing vanishing creams manufactured from
synthetic sources offer fairness, yet they have few side effects,
for example, tingling or unfavorably allergic responses. Perhaps,
creams prepared from natural and herbal sources are devoid of
any above side effects [2].
Herbalism has become a center of research and focus in
pharmaceutical formulation and drug discovery due to the
advancements in analysis and quality along with enhanced clinical
research in treating and preventing disease. According to the World
Health Organization (WHO), more than 80% of people worldwide
depend upon the herbal medicines and about 25% of modern drugs
have been derived from plants in the USA. In India, the Ayurvedic
system of medicine was derived from the inscriptions from 1500
BC. Several herbs and minerals utilized in the Ayurvedic system of
medicine during the 1st millennium BC were explained by famous
herbalists such as Charaka and Sushruta [3].
Vanishing cream is so termed due to their no presence or zero
evidence of presence upon application and rubbing on the surface
of the skin. It forms a thin imperceptible and invisible film on the
skin, followed by the dissipation of water that gives non-glossy
appearance [4].
