Abstract

Abstract Skin aging can be overcome with natural ingredients acting as antiaging agents. Several compounds in aloe vera gel (Aloe vera) and rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa) have antiaging activity. This study aims to determine the effect of granule products containing combinations of aloe vera gel and rosella in a 1:1, 1:3, and 3:1 ratio on the physical and chemical characteristics, as well as antioxidant and antielastase activities. This study used a laboratory experimental research design using a completely randomized design (CRD). Solubility time, color, and viscosity tests were used to determine the physical characteristics. Moisture content, pH, total anthocyanins, total flavonoid content, total phenolic content, total polysaccharide, o-acetyl polysaccharide, antioxidant, and antielastase were used to determine the chemical characteristics. Antioxidant and antielastase were used to determine the antiaging activity of granules. The result revealed that the combination of aloe vera gel and rosella at 1:3 significantly increased antioxidant and antielastase activity of antiaging granule products compared to untreated granule control. The granules containing aloe vera gel and rosella in this study showed antioxidant and antielastase activities.
