Herbal cosmetics are formulated, using different cosmetic ingredients to form the base in which one or more herbal ingredients are used to cure various skin ailments. The name itself suggests that herbal cosmetics are natural and free from all the harmful synthetic chemicals which otherwise may prove to be toxic to the skin. Compared to other beauty products, natural cosmetics are safe to use. Cosmeceuticals are cosmetic-pharmaceutical hybrid products intended to improve the health and beauty of the skin by providing a specific result, ranging from acne-control and anti-wrinkle effects, to sun protection. Calamine lotion is widely used as an antiseptic and protective for its cooling and soothing effect in various skin disorders. Instead of traditional synthetic products different plant parts and plant extracts are used in this study to procure calamine lotion having natural humectants, e.g. aloe-vera gel and honey. Herbal cosmetics are the preparations used to enhance the human appearance. The purpose of this study is to compare the semi synthetic activity of glycerin with other humectants in terms of their emollient properties to ensure whether calamine lotion can be formulated using natural humectants or not.Keywords

Analysis of developmental patterns in speech of children plays a vital role in speech acquisition and developmental research. It is important to study the development of various speech features with increase in age. Many recent studies have found that the children’s speech exhibits different patterns in the acoustic speech features as compare to adults’ speech. The present study extracted various acoustic speech features such as pitch, intensity and formants from the speech sample of normally developing children and adults. This research differentiates or classifies speech of adult and children by training different classification models using these features set.Keywords

Digital Image Processing, Vol 10, No 6 (2018), Pagination: 101-105Abstract
The area of automatic Facial Expression recognition has received an increasing attention from the researchers over last two decades due to its applications in various areas like human-computer interaction systems, Human Machine Intelligent Interaction (HMII), intelligent robotics, human centered transportation system for driver’s fatigue measurement, tools for people with lower vision and health care robots etc. An efficient feature extraction technique is an essential component of an automatic FER system. The feature extraction techniques widely used are categorized into: Appearance based methods and Geometric methods. Several works presented by the researchers use a hybrid approach combining both methods to create the feature vector for classification. In this paper, a survey is presented on different types of feature extraction techniques.

The rhizosphere–plant–microbial association is a complex and intricate system susceptible to various organic pollutants, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Since the soil acts as a sink of PAH, their accumulation shifts the delicate rhizosphere–plant–microbe equilibrium and enters the food chain through plants. How the presence of PAH in the rhizosphere affects the rhizosphere–plant–microbial system is still unclear. This study aims to understand the effects of PAH on rhizosphere–plant–microbial interactions. It also explores the potential use of microbes to alleviate PAH-induced stress in the soil for effective and sustainable management.Keywords
