The main objective of this study is to evaluate and formulate a herbal shampoo formulation. Shapmoo is one of the product used in daily life. Synthetic preservatives and detergents have sometimes being the cause of adverse effects among consumers. A more medical approach in reducing and replacing the synthetic ingredients is by incorporating natural ingredients whose functionality is comparable with their synthetic ingredients. The ingredients used in the herbal shampoo are 4% Reetha powder, 5% Shikakai powder Aloevera, Amla, 10% 4% Rose oil, 20% gelatin 1% Lemon juice. A mixture then prepared by mixing with heating each other and evaluated for its organoleptic and physic-chemical characteristics and performance tests in terms of pH, surface tension, foam stability and viscosity tests. The combination of several such ingredient of herbal origin has made it possible to design a highly effective shampoo formulation at laboratory scale and evaluated for some number of parameters e.g pH, surface tension, foam stability and viscosity to ensure its stable safety and efficacy. The formulated proportions of herbal ingredients of shampoo was clear brown colour with demonstrated good forth stability, detergency, cleansing property. The physico-chemical evaluation of the formulated shampoo showed ideal results. However, it sustained improved quality, product performance, and safety.
