Body odour is a problem that interferes with daily life. The secretion of sweat glands and bacterial activity cause body odour. There are many ways to deal with the problem of body odour, including maintaining body hygiene and using skin care products such as deodorant and antiperspirant. The purpose of this review article is to determine the concentration levels of herbal-based active substances that are suitable for deodorant preparations and to determine their safety and comfort for the skin. This literature review article takes 4 main articles with 10 additional articles, spanning the last 10 years from 2013-2023. The results obtained from this review article show that all deodorant preparations have good formulation content. In spray-type deodorant preparations, the best formulation is deodorant with the active ingredient "Beluntas" leaf extract. In the roll-no type deodorant preparation, the best formulation obtained was with ethanol extract of “Mahkota dewa” leaves, carbopol base and triethanolamine. Both types of deodorant are safe and comfortable to use because they do not irritate the skin surface.

School-aged children have a habit of paying less attention to hand washing behavior, especially in the school environment. Although simple and effective, promoting hand washing for disease prevention is still a challenge.

In the era of the new normal, maintaining health and hygiene has become critically important, especially in preventing the spread of viruses. One effective way to achieve this is through regular handwashing. Schools are particularly susceptible to the transmission of viruses and bacteria, which is why it's crucial to implement an effective hand sanitizer system. However, the use of conventional hand sanitizer bottles that require manual pressing or opening still carries the risk of virus transmission. Therefore, there is a need for the development of an automatic hand sanitizer system to reduce the risk of virus transmission. This research aims to design an Arduino-based automatic hand sanitizer system at SD Kanisius Genuk. The automatic hand sanitizer system utilizes an ultrasonic sensor to detect the distance between an object, in this case, a hand, and the hand sanitizer. When the hand approaches within a certain distance, the hand sanitizer fluid is dispensed automatically through a mini 5V pump. Additionally, the device features a liquid level sensor that provides information about the hand sanitizer fluid level via an LCD screen. The theoretical significance of this research lies in enriching knowledge about programming using the C++ programming language in designing an automatic hand sanitizer system. Furthermore, the research is expected to enhance creativity, innovation, and knowledge development in response to technological advancements. The practical benefits of this research include facilitating students, teachers, and guests at SD Kanisius Genuk in using the automatic hand sanitizer, thus reducing the risk of virus transmission. Additionally, this research can serve as a reference for universities and contribute to the field of human resource management knowledge.
