Abstract

This research aims to develop 3D false eyelashes using banana stem fiber (Musa paradisiaca) as an environmentally friendly natural material. The study was conducted as a development of previous research on the use of banana stem fiber for false eyelashes, which showed that the development of natural fiber-based 3D false eyelashes remains limited. This study employed an experimental method with a quantitative descriptive approach. The research object was 3D false eyelashes made from banana stem fiber. Product assessment consisted of organoleptic and hedonic tests. The organoleptic test evaluated color, curl, smoothness, and neatness, while the hedonic test assessed panelists’ level of preference. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and questionnaires involving seven panelists and were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of percentages. The results showed that the color indicator obtained 57.14% in the very black category, curl obtained 57.14% in the very curled category, smoothness obtained 42.86% in the fine category, and neatness obtained 57.14% in the very neat category. The hedonic test showed that the product achieved a preference level of 85.71%, categorized as very favorable. Thus, 3D false eyelashes made from banana stem fiber demonstrated good product quality based on organoleptic assessment and high panelist preference.
