NCT06219213

Brief Summary

This exploratory study aims to verify the hydrating potential as well as the possible irritant effects of a 14-day hydrating treatment consisting of daily application of serum and cream to the skin of two dry targeted areas. Thirty-three (33) subjects will be enrolled in this study and will be divided into three different treatment groups of 11 subjects each. Apart from the formulation of the cream which varies between the three groups, the subjects will receive the same serum and adhere to the same study plan for fourteen days. Each subject's baseline condition before treatment will serve as a control for effects observed after treatment on targeted areas.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Measure of Hydration

    For each subject in every group, skin hydration will be measured by corneometry at baseline (visit 1/ pre-treatment) and after one (1) week of treatment (visit 2) and two (2) weeks of treatment (visit 3). Only the targeted treated areas will be used for the measure of hydration.

    2 weeks

  • Measure of skin redness

    For each subject in every group, skin redness will be measured by mexametry at baseline (visit 1/ pre-treatment) and after one (1) week of treatment (visit 2) and two (2) weeks of treatment (visit 3). Only the targeted treated areas will be used for the measure of redness.

    2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Control of skin appearance and adverse events

Study Arms (3)

Group A: Cream of formulation A

EXPERIMENTAL

Daily application of glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serum and glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate cream of formulation A on both targeted skin area. The skin areas must be clean and dry. Subjects may proceed with additional product applications if needed. However, for each additional application, both targeted areas must be treated with the Serum and the cream. Subjects must proceed with at least one application of products each day for 14 consecutive days.

Other: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serumOther: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate Cream A

Group B: Cream of formulation B

EXPERIMENTAL

Daily application of glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serum and glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate cream of formulation B on both targeted skin area. The skin areas must be clean and dry. Subjects may proceed with additional product applications if needed. However, for each additional application, both targeted areas must be treated with the Serum and the cream. Subjects must proceed with at least one application of products each day for 14 consecutive days.

Other: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serumOther: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate Cream B

Group C: Cream of formulation C

EXPERIMENTAL

Daily application of glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serum and glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate cream of formulation C on both targeted skin area. The skin areas must be clean and dry. Subjects may proceed with additional product applications if needed. However, for each additional application, both targeted areas must be treated with the Serum and the cream. Subjects must proceed with at least one application of products each day for 14 consecutive days.

Other: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate serumOther: Glyceryl Eicosapentaenoate Cream C

Interventions

Daily application of serum on both targeted skin areas for 14 consecutive days. Serum must be applied before the Cream on clean skin.

Group A: Cream of formulation AGroup B: Cream of formulation BGroup C: Cream of formulation C

Daily application of cream on both targeted skin areas for 14 consecutive days. Cream must be applied after the serum.

Group B: Cream of formulation B

Daily application of cream on both targeted skin areas for 14 consecutive days. Cream must be applied after the serum.

Group C: Cream of formulation C

Daily application of cream on both targeted skin areas for 14 consecutive days. Cream must be applied after the serum.
