Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an anti-redness emulsion can help lower facial redness caused by heat in healthy adult women. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the anti-redness emulsion lower facial redness better than purified water?
- Is the product safe and comfortable to use? Researchers will compare the anti-redness emulsion to purified water using a split-face method. Participants will:
- Receive infrared light on their face to trigger redness
- Apply the anti-redness emulsion to one side of their face and purified water to the other side
- Have their facial redness measured at different time points using photography, imaging devices, and skin redness tests
- Answer questions about their experience with the products

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in skin redness visual score (Griffith 10-point scale)
Skin redness will be assessed by a dermatologist using the Griffith visual 10-point scale on the left and right sides of the face. Higher scores on the Griffith 10-point scale indicate greater skin redness, which is considered a worse outcome. Assessments will occur at Tbefore (before infrared induction), T0 (after infrared induction), T10min (10 mins post-application), T1h (1 hour post-application), and T2h (2 hours post-application).
Baseline to 2 hours post-application
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Change in facial redness area ratio (Visia 7 image analysis)
Baseline to 2 hours post-application
Change in erythema index (Mexameter® MX 18)
Baseline to 2 hours post-application
Change in red blood cell (RBC) concentration measured by TiVi 700
Baseline to 2 hours post-application
Change in facial skin temperature measured by thermal imaging (Fluke TiS60+)
Baseline to 2 hours post-application
Subject self-assessment of product efficacy and tolerance
15 minutes post-application
Study Arms (2)
Test Side: Instant Anti-Redness Emulsion
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive 0.3g of test emulsion (FLA#2039188 43) applied to one half of their face. The emulsion contains panthenol (Vitamin B5 precursor) and is designed to reduce facial redness after infrared heat-induced stimulation.
Control Side: Water Only
PLACEBO COMPARATORParticipants will receive 0.3g of purified water applied to the opposite side of the face, serving as control. Redness relief will be compared between the test emulsion and water using clinical assessment and imaging tools.
Interventions
A topical emulsion not yet marketed, developed to relieve skin redness. It contains panthenol and is applied once to the test side of the face after heat-induced redness.
0.3g of water is applied to the control side of the face. Used as placebo comparator to evaluate the redness-relieving efficacy of the test emulsion.
