The cream combined salicylic acid and retinol, known for their skin treatment benefits. Sensitivity testing showed no signs of skin irritation or allergic reactions, and stability testing indicated no separation or color change under controlled conditions. The study emphasized microbial quality control and the potential of the cream to offer skincare and anti-itching benefits with healing effects.
