Brief Summary

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

The study intends to evaluate the efficacy of an anti-melanogenesis active in different concentrations under part of visible Light \[400-450nm\] exposures and under full visible light \[400-700nm\] exposures.

It is carried out on cosmetic products for which the safety has been assured by a toxicologist, with the aim of confirming the efficacy of the products, which will be used by a large number of consumers under normal and reasonably foreseeable use conditions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The main objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of an anti-melanogenesis active in different concentrations under \[400-450nm\] exposures and under \[400-700nm\] in healthy volunteers by skin colorimetry (Delta E).

The secondary objectives are:

* To assess the efficacy of anti-melanogenesis active in different concentrations under \[400-450nm\] exposures and under \[400-700nm\] exposures in healthy volunteers by clinical evaluation and additional colorimetry measurements (Delta L\*, a\*, b\* and ITA°).
* To assess the local tolerance and safety of the topical formulations under \[400-450nm\] exposure and under \[400-700nm\] by recording adverse events and safety.

Melasyl at 1% and 0.5% versus its vehicle under High Energy Visible light or full visible light

A total of eight (8) zones of 3x3cm will be delineated on the back, four (4) zones per hemi-back (left and right) and exposed under UVA1+physical multilayer filter cut-off wavelengths under 400nm for \[400-450nm\] OR exposed under full visible light for \[400-700nm\].

\- Three (3) zones per hemi-back will be treated with topical treatments during the 7 weeks of the study: IP1: Melasyl 1% in Bright Matte (893286 03) IP2: Melasyl 0.5% in Bright Matte (893286 02) IP3: Bright Matte vehicle (893286 P)

\- One (1) zone per hemi-back will not be treated (control NT)
