Pengetahuan Penggunaan Kosmetik Herbal dalam Penanganan Jerawat: Tinjauan Bibliometrik dengan Visualisasi VOSviewer

Abstract

Adolescents are the primary users of anti-acne products, so knowledge about the ingredients, effectiveness, and use of herbal cosmetics plays a crucial role in acne management. This study aims to evaluate the development of this knowledge through a bibliometric analysis using Publish or Perish (PoP) and VOSviewer visualisation, focusing on the keywords "Knowledge," "Herbal Cosmetic Use," and "Acne" from Google Scholar. A total of 114 articles were obtained, with 8 relevant articles subjected to further analysis. The mapping results show four main clusters: acne, herbal cosmetics, formulations, and skin conditions. Existing research has focused on adolescents aged 16–27 years, utilising herbal ingredients such as Aloe vera, orange, and rose water in the form of soaps and creams, and has identified factors contributing to acne from genetic, cosmetic, and dietary perspectives.
