Results: The formulation F4 was found most satisfactory in all parameter evaluated with good sun protection potential, so it could be used as effective sun protective agent.

Conclusion: Herbal cosmetics were recognised as a safe, better and effective alternative of synthetic cosmetics that could help to protect and promote skin health naturally without any side effects.
