        abstract = {Moringa oleifera Lam. (Moringaceae) or Moringa or miracle tree has been ulized in several forms in food and nutraceuticals. However, preparaon of the antioxidave, phenolic-rich fraction of Moringa leaves is sparsely reported as per its status as an innovative product. Aconcise and processable extract on yielding phenolic-rich fractions  derived from Moringa leaves was developed. Maceration of mature Moringa leaves in 70% ethanolic water for 24 h at room temperature afforded a significant phenolic extract with anoxidant acvity (10.92 ±0.23 g GAE/100 g extract and IC50 = 50.22 ± 0.09 μg/ml) significantly greater (p < 0.05) than those resulting from other methods. The extract was applicable for topical products in terms of its physicochemical properties and compatibility, resulting in a stable water-in-silicone (W/Si) emulsion. This antioxidave, phenolic-rich Moringa emulsion can be used as a cosmeceutical product. The innovative Moringa product presented is meeting the consumers’ preferences for natural/sustainable products that are continuing to increase year by year. In addition, successive integration between the agricultural crop and cosmetic industries are evidenced and significance to horticulture.},
