Artocarpus heterophyllus  (Ah) is a plant that grows in many parts of Indonesia. Its leaves are widely used for traditional uses, one of which is for facial skin care. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of its extract on facial skin smoothness. Ethanol extract of Ah (EEA) was prepared as clay mask formulation (FI: 1, F2: 3 and F3:5%) and then was applied on volunteer face. Skin smoothness improvement was measured using a skin analyzer. Standardization of simplicia and phytochemical screening of EEA were done before the test. Data were analyzed using Kruskall Wallis and Mann Whitney. Standardization yielded as follows: total water-: 5.33%, total water-soluble 15.67%, total ethanol-soluble 13.61% and total ash 10.29%. Smoothness value showed as normal skin with improvement to smooth level on EEA-treated group: FI: 9.4%; F2: 5.6%; F3:10.0%. The highest improvement percentage of skin was found in F3. Statistically, there was significantly different (p=0.046) between F0-F3. The study concludes that F3 is able to improve facial skin smoothness.
