“…Using essential oils can help lessen the inflammation and scarring caused by acne, which is an added plus. [77] demonstrated that the antibacterial power of citronella grass essential oil against Propionibacterium acnes, its good free radical scavenging activity, and its ability to inhibit the activity of the 5LOX enzyme all contributed to a reduction in the inflammatory processes that are associated with the development of acne. It has been demonstrated that the topical application of Cymbopogan martini essential oil, also known as palmarosa oil, at a dose that is considered to be on the lower end of the spectrum has a significant potential for reducing the symptoms of acne.…”

The cosmetics industry has been forced to search for new active chemicals as a result of increasing customer demand as well as stricter international regulations. Botanical extract offers a source of new active chemicals that is nearly endless and may be used to make cosmetics. Due to their olfactory character in the creation of fragrances and perfumes and the many beneficial properties of their individual components (EOCs), essential oils (EOs) are becoming increasingly popular natural ingredients in the cosmetics and toiletries industry. These properties include anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties (e.g., moisturizers, lotions and cleanser in skin care cosmetics; conditioners, masks or antidandruff products in hair care products; lipsticks, or fragrances in perfumery). It is difficult to generalise the possible applications of essential oils in cosmetics and toiletries because each essential oil has its own unique chemical profile, which is connected with its own particular collection of benefits. Instead, formulators need to make an effort to discover acceptable mixes of essential oils or essential oil compounds in order to get the results they want from the completed goods. This paper presents a detailed examination of the existing research on the usage of essential oils and essential oil compounds (EOs and EOCs) in the cosmetics sector. In addition, we will focus on a few critical topics regarding the safety of essential oils and essential oil compounds used in the cosmetics sector. When formulators of cosmetics are working to perfect products that are based on botanical extracts, they are very likely to find the information offered in this review to be valuable.

“…The current research interest is on the observed bactericidal, viricidal, fungicidal, antiparasitic, insecticidal, therapeutic, and aesthetic effects of essential oils. The application of essential oils in foods to extend shelf life is mostly based on their antioxidant and antimicrobial properties [ 8 , 11 ]. Although essential oils are fascinating alternatives to chemical preservatives, their usage is constrained by their high volatility, potent odour, and diverse compositions.…”

Evaluation of the Antioxidant Properties of Carvacrol as a Prospective Replacement for Crude Essential Oils and Synthetic Antioxidants in Food Storage

et al. 2023

The phenolic structural analogues of synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) in essential oils have been reported to exhibit antioxidant properties. Additionally, their lipophilicity makes them suitable for use in lipid-rich foods. This study evaluated the antioxidant capacity of carvacrol, a monoterpenoid antioxidant compound in the Monodora myristica (Gaertn.) seed essential oil, compared to the seed essential oil and BHT. In vitro studies (ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), metal chelating activity (MCA), and nitric oxide scavenging activity (NOSA)) were conducted to ascertain if the antioxidant capacity of carvacrol was comparable to that of the seed essential oil. The potential binding affinity and molecular interactions between carvacrol and lipoxygenase (LOX) and its homologous model were investigated in silico. The molecular docking was performed using Autodock Vina, and the best poses were subjected to molecular dynamics simulation. The IC50 for MCA and NOSA were: carvacrol 50.29 µL/mL, seed essential oil (SEO) 71.06 µL/mL; and carvacrol 127.61 µL/mL, SEO 165.18 µL/mL, respectively. The LOX model was Ramachandran favoured (97.75%) and the overall quality factor in the ERRAT plot was 95.392. The results of the molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations revealed that lipoxygenase has a higher affinity (−22.79 kcal/mol) for carvacrol compared to BHT. In the LOX–BHT and LOX–carvacrol complexes, the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD), root-mean-square fluctuation (RMSF), and the radius of gyration (RoG) were not significantly different, indicating similar molecular interactions. The results obtained from this study suggest that carvacrol exhibits an antioxidant capacity that may be explored as an alternative for crude essential oils and synthetic compounds during the storage of lipid-rich foods.

“…Natural products, in particular volatile oils isolated from aromatic plants, have been the subject of several studies over the years. This may be related to their complex chemical compositions, which may include a series of classes of chemical compounds such as monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, hydrocarbons, oxygenated mono- and sesquiterpenes, and phenylpropanoids [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. In addition, this diverse chemical composition may be related to potential activities, such as antioxidant [ 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”

Croton campinarensis Secco, A. Rosário & PE Berry is an aromatic species recently discovered in the Amazon region. This study first reports the chemical profile, antioxidant capacity, and preliminary toxicity to A. salina Leach of the essential oil (EO) of this species. The phytochemical profile of the essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC/MS) and (GC-FID). The antioxidant capacity of the EO was measured by its inhibition of ABTS•+ and DPPH• radicals. Molecular modeling was used to evaluate the mode of interaction of the major compounds with acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The results indicate that the EO yield was 0.24%, and germacrene D (26.95%), bicyclogermacrene (17.08%), (E)-caryophyllene (17.06%), and δ-elemene (7.59%) were the major compounds of the EO sample. The EO showed a TEAC of 0.55 ± 0.04 mM·L−1 for the reduction of the ABTS•+ radical and 1.88 ± 0.08 mM·L−1 for the reduction of the DPPH• radical. Regarding preliminary toxicity, the EO was classified as toxic in the bioassay with A. salina (LC50 = 20.84 ± 4.84 µg·mL−1). Through molecular docking, it was found that the majority of the EO components were able to interact with the binding pocket of AChE, a molecular target related to toxicity evaluated in A. salina models; the main interactions were van der Waals and π-alkyl interactions.
