Today marks the final day of the entire 2024 Summer Course series. Participants began this last day with Course #13: Critical Point for Halal Cosmetic Products, presented by apt. Laili Nailul Muna, M.Sc, an experienced halal auditor from LPH UIN Sunan Kalijaga. Moderated by Ika Qurrotul Afifah, M.Si, this session highlighted the importance of adhering to halal standards in the cosmetic industry while considering related legal and ethical aspects.

Laili Nailul Muna emphasized critical points in the cosmetic production process where there is potential for contamination with non-halal substances. This includes raw materials, packaging, and the production environment. Ensuring that all these elements comply with halal standards is crucial to maintaining the integrity of halal products.

The activities continued with a beauty demo session from Wardah. In this session, a participant was asked to be a model to demonstrate makeup tips and tricks and determine products suitable for different skin tones. Enthusiasm was evident from all participants, both female and male. Active participants in this session received gifts from Wardah.

Before proceeding to the next event, participants were given a break. They had the opportunity to taste bakso and angkringan, Jogja's special delicacies, and browse the stands at the Halal Food Festival.

The next session was the peak and conclusion of the entire 2024 Summer Course series. Previously, Detri and Abdurrahman, as particpiants,gave speeches and shared their impressions and messages about the Summer Course activities.

The closing ceremony was concluded by Prof. Dr. Dra. Hj. Khurul Wardati, M.Si, Dean of the Faculty of Science and Technology, UIN Sunan Kalijaga. She warmly welcomed and greatly appreciated the success of the 2024 Summer Course. She also highlighted the importance of promoting and publicizing the global halal issue. This global halal issue is likely to be relevant for all time. Halal not only pertains to food but also to the process. It is not only about determining which foods are halal or haram, but also about their purity and wholesomeness (tayyib).

"Alhamdulillah, the Summer Course has been carried out very well. Hopefully, the next Summer Course will be even better. Insya Allah, the Summer Course will become an annual event in FST. We are very grateful to the committee and participants; success is impossible without the support of the participants," she said.

The activities did not end here. Before leaving, participants and student committees held a gift exchange session as a token of remembrance and a closing of the entire event series. Laughter and tears filled everyone involved in this event.

The entire 2024 Summer Course series has ended. This successful event provided many new experiences and new friends. See you again at the excitement of the next year's Summer Course.
