Abstract
Cosmeceutical formulations of Ocimum basilicum are designed in an effective base to medicate topical acne-causing inflammation using an advanced drug delivery system. Acne vulgaris is a common disease found not only in young people but also in adults. The present study suggests the use of O. basilicum as a cream for the treatment of acne. Anti-acne creams formulated from crude herbal extracts have long been used for their antimicrobial and antioxidant activities to prevent the inflammation that causes acneiform eruption. This study proposes that, along with the formulation of a micro-emulsion, the use of invasomes will offer an effective advanced drug delivery system that promises improved efficacy and stability in treating acne with O. basilicum.
