Resumo
Atualmente, há um aumento na procura por cosméticos sustentáveis contendo compostos ativos de origem orgânica e natural. Com isso, esse trabalho teve como objetivo desenvolver um creme corporal usando o óleo de coco e o óleo essencial de pimenta rosa como matérias primas. Além da elaboração do creme, as características físicas e químicas (pH, densidade e espalhabilidade) foram avaliadas. Os valores médios de pH e densidade foram de 6,66 e 0,97 g/cm³, respectivamente. As amostras de cremes apresentaram boa espalhabilidade e teores de pH próximos ao da pele.

Abstract
Natural and sustainable cosmetics: Developing a body cream containing coconut oil (Cocos nucifera) and Brazilian pink pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius) essential oil. Currently, there is an increase in demand for sustainable cosmetics containing active compounds of organic and natural origin. This work aimed to develop a body cream using coconut oil and essential oil of pink pepper as raw materials. In addition to the preparation of the cream, the physical-chemical characteristics (pH, density, and spreadability) were evaluated. The mean values of pH and density were 6.66 and 0.97 g/cm³, respectively. The cream samples showed good spreadability and pH levels close to the pH of the skin.

Keywords
Natural cosmetic; Essential oil; Coconut oil; Pink pepper.
