Abstract:
The synthetic chemical ointments produced by the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries cause irritations and skin diseases. For this reason, the present work aims to prepare ointments based on two vegetable plants belonging to the same genus but with two different families, Calendula arvencis CA and Dandelion D, according to a protocol of variation of ratios between the beeswax and the infused oil of each flower of the two plants. Physico-chemical analyses are carried out to see the macroscopic and microscopic aspect, the resistance to water and pH as well as the conductivity, and the chemical structure of the ointments. According to the obtained results, the Ratio R (1/3) of the CA ointment presents a better homogeneity, a better pH, Conductivity and a better physical stability by its water resistance, in addition to a better chemical stability by the increase at the level of all its characteristic bands.
