A Clinical Investigation of a Topical Moisturizer on Skin Barrier Function in Adults With Sensitive Skin
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether a marketed moisturizing cream can improve skin barrier function (how well the outer layer of the skin keeps moisture in and protects the skin), skin hydration, skin sensitivity, inflammatory biomarkers (proteins in the skin that can provide information about inflammation), and the skin microbiome (the microorganisms that naturally live on the skin) in adults with sensitive skin, when compared with a commonly used moisturizing ointment (White Petrolatum) a widely used occlusive ointment (an ointment that forms a protective layer over the skin to help reduce moisture loss).
