Centella asiatica leaves contain active compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins, which are secondary metabolites. A sheet mask is a practical cosmetic facial treatment that does not require rinsing and is effective in moisturizing the skin. This study aims to determine the formulation of a sheet mask preparation. The ethanol extract of Centella asiatica leaves meets the physical quality evaluation criteria for the preparation. The experimental formulation method involves creating a sheet mask composed of various components including Centella asiatica leaf extract, glycerin, propylene glycol, xanthan gum, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, nipagin, 96% ethanol, fragrance (Green tea), aquadest, sheet mask base, and foil bag. The research includes the characterization of the raw material, phytochemical screening of the extract, and formulation into sheet masks with concentrations of 2%, 4%, and 6%, followed by moisturizing testing using a skin analyzer. The evaluation of the preparation includes organoleptic tests, homogeneity, physical stability, viscosity, pH value, irritation testing, and hedonic testing. The characterization results show a water content of 3.46%, water-soluble extract content of 31.38%, ethanol-soluble extract content of 11.96%, total ash content of 8.41%, and acid-insoluble ash content of 1.09%. Phytochemical screening results show positive for alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and steroids. The study indicates that the ethanol extract of Centella asiatica can be formulated into a homogeneous and stable sheet mask preparation. The pH of the preparation meets the requirement with a value of 4.5-6.5, which is relatively safe for facial skin. The preparation does not cause irritation, with viscosity testing meeting the requirement of 250-1150 cp. The moisturizing test shows that a 6% Centella asiatica extract concentration provides the best moisturizing effect, and the most preferred formulation is F3 with a preference percentage of 38.12%. The average moisture values are F0 (Blank) 25.64%, F1 (2%) 33.26%, F2 (4%) 39.18%, and F3 (6%) 38.12%. Overall, it can be concluded that Centella asiatica extract can be formulated into a sheet mask with effective moisturizing capability for the facial skin.  

Abstract One of the government organizations tasked with managing affairs in its operational area in order to protect, be responsive, resolve, and rescue protected from fire is the Padangsidimpuan City Fire and Rescue Service. Performance is a term used to describe how well the implementation efforts in fulfilling the vision and mission of the organization. This research is in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the expenditure budget, namely from 2018 to 2022. The purpose of this budget capability evaluation is to assess the absorption of expenditure during the budget period. This study used a qualitative methodology combined with quantitative data collection and documentation methods. Descriptive analysis methods were used using efficiency ratios, expenditure growth analysis, operating expenditure and capital expenditure compatibility analysis, expenditure variance analysis. Based on the results of research using expenditure variance analysis, budget performance can be said to be good because there are no expenditures that exceed the budget. Analysis of expenditure growth between 2018-2022 shows positive growth. The findings of the expenditure conformity analysis show that operational costs use more of the expenditure budget than capital expenditure. In addition, with an average of 92.05%, the efficiency ratio of budget realization indicates that the use of the 2018-2022 budget is less efficient.

The police are currently a topic of conversation due to several problems caused by irresponsible members, resulting in a negative view of the police. To overcome this, a Quick Wins Presisi program was implemented, such as "Friday Confide." This program is a response to problems in daily interactions between the police and the community, such as dissatisfaction with services, lack of communication, and transparency of police actions. "Friday Confide" is an initiative that aims to increase interaction between the community and the police by providing a platform for the community to convey complaints, aspirations and input directly. This research evaluates the effectiveness of the program and how the community responds and participates, especially in the Greater Mojokerto Police. The methodology used includes a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through in-depth interviews, direct observation and related documentation. Using the Diffusion of Innovation theory, research shows that the "Friday Confide" program was well received by the people of Mojokerto as an effective place to convey aspirations and obtain information about police activities. However, researchers identified challenges such as limited time that hinders comprehensive communication and handling of issues, as well as the need for increased direct community involvement. This program has succeeded in improving relations and transparency between the police and the community, but requires adjustments such as extending time and strengthening follow-up. The research recommends ongoing evaluation of strategic adjustments to ensure programs continue to meet community needs and expectations.
