Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Selected subjects will be randomised into active and control groups in a ratio of 1:1. Investigational products assigned will be applied on the facial skin as part of daily skin care routine. The effects will be observed during the 24-weeks of use.
