Star fruit leaves can be formulated into various pharmaceutical dosage forms so that added value is obtained, one of which is paper soap. Paper soap contains the active substance of star fruit leaf ethanol extract combined with avocado oil as a moisturizer. This study aims to make a paper soap formulation from star fruit leaf extract and avocado oil. Paper soap is made in F1, F2 and F3 formulas containing star fruit leaf extract with concentrations of 5%, 10% and 15% respectively. The observed parameters of paper soap preparations include organoleptis, pH, foam stability, antibacterial, irritation of rabbit eyes and skin moisture. The formula of star fruit leaf extract paper soap contains secondary metabolites of flavonoids, saponins and tannins. Paper soap parameter test results meet requirements on organoleptis, pH, foam stability, antibacterial and irritation of the rabbit's eyes. The formula of star fruit leaf extract paper soap can increase skin moisture in all formulas.
