The essential oil of sere (Cymbopogon citratus (DC) Stapf and ginger(Zingiber officinale Roxb), obtained by isolation of leaves and rhizome by steam distillation ofwater which is then tested physical properties including test of adhesion, test of spreadability andtest of mosquito repellent activities. The test of mosquito repellent activities using 20 birds Aedesaegypti mosquito female per cage with the using hand of women as volunteers as much as 4people. In this study were divided into sixth formulas of test. The sixth of cream formula withvariations in the concentration of essential oils sere and ginger wherein the formula I, II and IIIcontain essential oils sere as much as 20% v/w; 30% v/ w and 40% v/w, whereas for formula IV; V;and VI contain the essential oil of ginger as much as 6.25% v/w; 12.5% v/w and 25% v/w. Data ofphysical properties test were analyzed statistically using SPSS. The results showed the cream withthe concentration of essential oils sere 40% v/w (FIII) have better outcomes than others formulascream, where than of adhesion test is 0.46 ± 0.04 seconds; of the spreadibility test is 56.32 ± 14.78cm2 and repellent effect of 3014.2 ± 20.16 seconds.
