The function of the skin is body temperature regulation, a reservoir for blood, protection from the external environment, cutaneous sensations, excretion and absorption, and vitamin D synthesis.
MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY:
Formulation Table: -
PROCEDURE:
The oil phase ingredients were weighed mixed with continuous stirring at the temperature 120?c to form uniform liquid. The water phase ingredients were weighed mixed with continuous stirring at the temperature 80oC to form uniform liquid. The oil phase was incorporated in the water phase at 80oC with continuous stirring until the semisolid consistency is obtained and added as preservative. Continuous stirring to soap bases till the uniform dispersion of the ingredients was achieved. The soap base fill the suitable soap mould stored the room temperature and its evaluated.

CONCLUSION:-
In this study finally concluded that antifungal soaps form herbal origin are prepared and hence we can conclude that the neem, aloe vera, turmeric and tulsi can be combined to make soap that has antifungal properties that can be used on a variety of skin conditions as well as in daily life for healthy skin. Herbal antifungal soaps shows better acitivity and less side effects as compare to the synthetic soaps. Extrensive use of synthetic antifungal soaps may .show resisistant or side effects to the body but in the case of herbal soaps there is no resistant nor the side effect. They are safe to use, Herbal soaps have .a strong impact on the skin, in terms of making it soft, smooth and supple. On the contrary, chemical soaps are full of damaging substances that can harm the skin as well as health. The present work involves the formulation of herbal soap by using different oil base. Literatures regarding, herbal soap form preparation, excipients selection, manufacturing method, etc., has been collected and reviewed. based on the optimization of the parameters concluded that herbal soap can be prepared by using soap base. Hence all the formulation F1 to F10 which satisfied all the for herbal soap like shape, color, odour, total fatty matter, skin irritation test. The anti fungal activity evaluated by agar medium, the F1 , F2 , F3 , F9 formulation compare to other formulation good antifungal activity was evaluated. The multiple benefits of herbal soaps make them the right choice for better skin care and optimal health outcomes Natural soaps have less side effects such as rashes, irrtitancy,etc as compared to the synthetic soaps.
