Green Innovation of Natural Anti-aging and Anti-acne Face Serum, MagFix
This idea for this invention comes from the concern of using synthetic ingredients in the formulation of face serum for cosmeceutical purposes. This product utilises Garcinia Mangostana or mangosteen as the active ingredient due to its anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial, and anti-collagenase activities. Formulating with components from natural resources is one of the product's unique features, along with utilising a low-energy method to formulate, indicating a green synthesis. The face serum can inhibit acne-causing bacteria and collagenase enzyme, leading to the prevention of wrinkles. The skin absorption capacity of the face serum is impressive without leaving an unpleasant greasy coating.
MGs-Young+: A New Sustainable Green Cosmeceutical Face Cream with Rejuvenating Properties
MGs-Young+, a new sustainable green cosmeceutical face cream was formulated by replacing the synthetic ingredients with natural-based actives and excipients derived from plant sources or compliant to the latest standards of the organic certification organizations, for instance, ECOCERT and COSMOS. The concentrations of all the ingredients used were within the range safe to be used for topical application as reported in Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) supported by Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, the formulation of green cosmeceuticals was challenging due to the limited availability of natural ingredients and formulation stability issues. However, our team was able to formulate a stable green cosmeceutical cream with no significant change in colour, odour, texture and optimum pH between 5.2-5.8 to maintain proper skin barrier function. Stability testing indicates that the sustainable green cosmeceutical cream produced was having a minimum shelf life of 2 years in addition to its excellent antioxidant effects.

Cocoa Butter Fast Melt Tablet
This innovation idea arose from the issue of swallowing conventional oral tablets, especially in paediatrics and geriatrics. Fast melt tablet is a new oral dosage form that dissolves in the mouth without the need to chew. Since cocoa butter is inexpensive and an easily available lipid that melts at normal human body temperature, the extract was incorporated in the formulation of fast melt tablets to ensure quicker melting and dissolution.
