Betel leaf (Piper betle L.) has long been used in traditional medicine due to the distinctive properties of its leaves and their natural essential oil content. Today, research on betel leaf continues to attract attention for its antioxidant and antimicrobial potential, opening up new opportunities for applications in skincare, oral care, and personal hygiene products.

Belonging to the Piperaceae family, betel leaves contain various bioactive compounds, particularly phenolic compounds and essential oil constituents. Among these, hydroxychavicol and eugenol are notable bioactive compounds that have been studied for their antioxidant properties and ability to inhibit certain microorganisms. In addition, tannins and other biologically active constituents contribute to the potential value of betel leaf extract.

In vitro studies have demonstrated the antimicrobial potential of betel leaf against several bacterial strains, including Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus pyogenes. The extent of these effects may vary depending on the extract composition, concentration, and experimental conditions. These findings provide a scientific basis for further research and development of betel leaf extract as an ingredient in personal care formulations.

With its promising biological properties, betel leaf extract offers potential applications across a wide range of products, including feminine hygiene washes, body washes, shampoos, oral care products, and skincare formulations. In deodorant creams and body care products, this ingredient may be investigated for its potential to help control microorganisms associated with body odor. In skincare formulations, betel leaf extract is also a promising ingredient due to its antioxidant potential and ability to support skin protection against oxidative stress.
