In the present study, polyherbal oil-in-water vanishing emulsion cream was formulated based on the anti-fungal, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, skin-soothing, and anti-aging potential of aloe vera, kachora plant, linseed, long pepper, nagarmotha plant, nutmeg, turmeric, and wheat grain. All herbs were extracted by using the maceration method with ethanol as solvent. The prepared vanishing cream was then evaluated for various parameters, and results were obtained within acceptable values. The prepared vanishing cream was found stable and firm during the stability studies performed as per the guidelines of International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) at different temperatures for a period of a month. Results have shown that formulations have good stabil¬ity. It can be concluded that the prepared polyherbal vanishing cream was pleasing, simply washable without side effects, and can be utilized to protect and avoid degradation of the skin.
