In this study, liposome has been investigated as the potential transdermal carrier for Labisia pumila (Lp) and Ficus deltoidea (Fd) . The encapsulation efficiency, zeta potential, particle size and transdermal transport properties of the herbal extracts loaded liposomes were determined to characterize the delivery system. The entrapment efficiency for Lipo- Lp and Lipo- Fd were 35.47 ± 2.71% and 31.23 ± 7.65%, respectively. The average diameter were153.35nm and 131.9nm, respectively and the zeta potential were -47.2 and -46.8, respectively. The permeability and partition coefficient (K) of Lipo- Lp were 1.31cm h -1 and 10.05, respectively and the permeability and partition coefficient (K) of Lipo- Fd were 1.28cm h -1 and 7.62, respectively. Labisia pumila and Ficus deltoidea loaded liposomes showed better transdermal permeation compared to un-encapsulated Labisia pumila and Ficus deltoidea indicative of potential actives herbal cosmetic formulations.
