Indonesia has abundant biodiversity with potential for developing natural cosmetics. Excessive accumulation of free radicals triggers oxidative stress that degrades collagen and elastin, reduces skin moisture and elasticity, and accelerates wrinkle formation; consequently, there is a need to develop natural anti-aging formulations rich in antioxidants. Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) contains antioxidant compounds with potential as anti-aging agents. This study aimed to formulate a body butter from the ethanol extract of butterfly pea flower as an anti-aging product and to evaluate its effectiveness. An experimental method was used, varying extract concentration (0.5%, 1%, and 2%), along with a blank formula (F0) and a comparator product (F4). Evaluation included physical stability, anti-aging activity, irritation testing, and preference testing using a skin analyzer over four weeks. The results showed that all formulas met body butter quality standards, were homogeneous, had appropriate pH, adhesion, spreadability, and viscosity, and did not cause irritation. Anti-aging activity was observed at all concentrations. The 1% concentration (F2) gave the greatest numerical improvement, with a moisture increase of 29%, a wrinkle reduction of 48.73%, and a pore reduction of 49.24%. The preference test showed that the panelists liked all formulas. It is concluded that the body butter from butterfly pea flower ethanol extract meets quality requirements and shows anti-aging activity, with the 1% concentration yielding the greatest numerical improvement; however, since differences between formulas were not statistically significant, the effectiveness of the extract requires further confirmation.
