Identification of product halalness is studied based on list issued by Indonesian Ulama Council. Several characteristic tests have been carried out such as organoleptic test, pH, spray spreadability test, spray condition test, and dry time test.

Results: In general, the results of halal identification found that all materials used in this study were halal. Physical characteristics test show that F1, F2, and F3 meet the requirements of good face mist where F3 has better dry time.

Conclusion: Formulation 3 (F3) was the best formulation found in this study with the best organoleptic conditions, pH, spray power, dispersion, and dry time.
