With the growing interest in herbal and chemical-free personal care products, this research focuses on harnessing the natural antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of these flowers to develop an effective herbal soap. The extracts were prepared and incorporated into a standard soap base using the cold saponification method. The formulated soap was subjected to various physicochemical evaluations, including pH, foam height, hardness, spreadability, and stability. Antimicrobial efficacy was tested against common skin pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli using the agar well diffusion method. The results demonstrated that the herbal soap possessed significant antimicrobial activity, along with acceptable physical properties and stability. This study highlights the potential of Cassia auriculata and Nelumbo nucifera as valuable natural ingredients in the formulation of herbal antimicrobial soaps, offering a safe and effective alternative to synthetic cleansing products.</span></em></p> <p><strong><em><span lang="EN-IN">Keywords</span></em></strong><em><span lang="EN-IN">: Cassia Auriculata And Nelumbo Nucifera Flower Extracts, Herbal Soap.</span></em></p> </div>
