As a functional material, keratin is widely used in biology, medicine, material and other aspects in recent years. Aim: This research aims at formulation, development and evaluation of Cosmeceutical formulation using keratin derived from human hairs. Objectives: The main objectives of this study were accomplished by following step: 1. To develop a Cosmeceutical formulation containing keratin derived from human hair. 2. To evaluate and develop formulation for its stability and efficacy. 3. Comparative evaluation of developed formulation with marketed product. Methods Used: Extraction, purification and isolation of keratin from human hair. Conclusion: From all the parameter studies, we concluded that keratin gel for human hair have nourishing activity with hair strength, hair shining and softness to the hair. Favourable formulation texture profile along with viscosity, pH, spreadability and nourishing activity has ensured the quality and stability of the gel as compared with different marketed formulations.&#xD;
