Preparation of Creams (vanishing cream): Industrial Pharmacy Practical

BP506P Industrial Pharmacy I Practical

Aim: Preparation of 20gm of vanishing cream.

Theory:

A cream is a preparation usually for application to the skin. Creams are semi-solid emulsions of oil and water. They are divided into two types: oil-in-water (0/W) creams which are composed of small droplets of oil dispersed in a continuous water phase, and water-in-oil (W/O) creams which are composed of small droplets of water dispersed in a continuous oily phase. Oil-in-water creams are more comfortable and cosmetically acceptable as they are less greasy and more easily washed off using water) Water-in-oil creams are more difficult to handle.

Vanishing creams get their name from the fact that they seem to disappear when spread on the skin. It is also known as foundation cream which are applied to skin to provide a smooth emollient base before the application of face powder and other face make up. Vanishing creams also known for their smooth, dry feel on the skin and their pearly sheen. Chemically they are oil-in-water emulsions consisting of stearic acid, an alkali, a polyol and water. The cream helps the powder to adhere to the skin and also acts as skin protectant which prevents the damaging effect caused by the environmental factors.. One characteristic due to which these vanishing creams are preferred is the ‘sheen effect’. Rather than giving a caked look to the face, they give a natural attractive sheen to the skin. Vanishing Creams has the advantage of being non-greasy which makes them suitable for use during the day. It is equally effective for normal and oily skin types.

One important constituent of the cream is hydroquinone. This chemical is well known for dispelling sallowness and freckles. Four percent hydroquinone applied consistently is supposed to vanish all the age spots. The purpose of the vanishing cream is to lighten unnecessary dark spots or discolouration on the skin.

Synonym: Foundation cream, face cream
