Abstract During the past two decades, invasive fungal infections have emerged as a major hazard to immunocompromised hosts. Patients with neoplastic disorders are at considerable risk for such infections as a result of their underlying illness and its therapy. In addition to being an important source of medicine, plants are essential to achieving WHO's objectives for the well-being of everyone. The Rutaceae family's Limonia acidissima L. (wood apple, elephant apple, and monkey fruit) has become one of the most prized plants as more people become conscious of natural products because of its many therapeutic uses. Certain sections of Limonia Acidissima L. exhibit distinct qualities. For example, essesial oil extracted from the plant's leaves exhibits antibacterial activity due to the presence of carvacrol and cyclodecandine compounds. Because of psoralene, shell exhibits antifungal action against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The greater moisture content of Limonia Acidissima L pulp makes it beneficial for skin. Saponins, flavonoids, amino acids, beta carotene, tannins, carbohydrates, vitamin B, and triterpene are among Limonia Acidissima L's other primary ingredients. Limonia Acidissima L. can be utilized in cosmetic goods since it contains elements that give them certain cosmetic qualities. This paper includes the information of formulation and evaluation of herbal soap which is based on anti-fungal properties. The soap is made from absolute herb i.e wood apple without any chemical constituents .
