Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a single center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, performed on two parallel groups.

A total of 130 adult female subjects meeting specific inclusion/exclusion criteria will be included in order to have 120 subjects who complete the study at Day 98/Week 14.

Subjects will be randomly assigned to either the FS-HA oral supplementation group (60 subjects) or the placebo group (60 subjects).

The subjects should agree to attend a total of five (5) visits as follows:

* a screening visit within 21 days prior to Day 1 (from Day -22 to Day -1);
* a baseline visit (Day 1);
* two (2) intermediate visits (Day 29 and Day 84);
* a follow-up and end-of- study visit on Day 98.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of an oral supplementation containing a FS-HA on facial skin hydration after 3 months of use, compared with Placebo.

The Secondary Objective(s) will evaluate the effects of an oral supplementation containing a FS-HA compared with Placebo on:

* the hydration of the lips using corneometry;
* the skin quality of the face using dermatological assessments and biophysical measurements (TEWL and Mexametry);
* the quality/health and beauty of the lips using dermatological assessments and biophysical measurements (Mexametry);
* the volume of the lips using image analysis;
* to assess the persistence of the effects 2 weeks after discontinuation;
* to assess the subject perceived efficacy and acceptability (subject self-assessment);
* to evaluate the safety of the study products.
