This study presents the development of prototype facial cosmetics derived from herbal plants through a research methodology that aligns with the potential and capabilities of herbal-based cosmetic production. The research utilized Thai herbs, such as turmeric, butterfly pea, and roselle, which are known for their natural pigmentation and abundant availability. A cold extraction and freeze-drying process was employed to preserve the natural properties and stability of these pigments. The prototypes, including liquid lipsticks, cheek tints, and eyeshadows, meet safety and quality standards, demonstrating the feasibility of producing chemical-free cosmetics. The research findings emphasize the economic and environmental benefits of using herbal resources, addressing consumer demand for natural and sustainable products. Training sessions and knowledge transfer activities were conducted to empower community enterprises and start-ups, enabling them to replicate these methods and comply with industry standards. This approach not only supports local economic development but also aligns with global trends in eco-friendly cosmetic products. Future studies should explore advanced techniques for pigment stabilization and market expansion to maximize the impact of herbal-based cosmetics.
