Pengaruh Lulur Kulit Jeruk Nipis dan Daun Kelor untuk Perawatan Kulit Kering Effect of Lime Peel and Moringa Leaf Body Scrub for Dry Skin Care
Main Article Content
Abstract
Xerosis, or dry skin, is a dermatological disorder characterized by a hydration deficit in the stratum corneum, resulting in a rough skin texture, a dull appearance, and reduced skin comfort. This condition is influenced by environmental exposure, high levels of daily activity, and suboptimal skin care practices. In the context of utilizing natural ingredients as safer and more accessible cosmetic alternatives, lime peel and moringa leaves are known to contain bioactive compounds, such as vitamin C, flavonoids, and antioxidants, which may help maintain skin hydration. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a body scrub made from lime peel and moringa leaves in improving the moisture of dry body skin. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design using a nonequivalent control group design. Six participants with dry skin characteristics were divided into a control group and a treatment group. The treatment group received an intervention in the form of body scrub application once a week for eight consecutive sessions, whereas the control group did not receive a similar intervention. Skin moisture was measured at the pre-intervention and post-intervention stages using a skin moisture measuring device, and the data were analyzed descriptively and statistically. The results showed that the treatment group experienced a significant increase in skin moisture, with the mean value rising from 13% at the initial measurement to 57% after the eighth session, while the control group did not show a significant change. These findings indicate that a body scrub made from lime peel and moringa leaves contributed positively to improving the hydration of dry body skin. Thus, this study confirms that natural ingredients have the potential to serve as an effective alternative for dry skin care.
