About

The aim of this study is to evaluate, at different times, the RV3278A - ET0943 cosmetic product efficacy after 8 weeks of application on the face (twice-daily application). At T1 (Baseline), T2 (4 weeks) and T3 (8 weeks), the following assessments are performed:

The reduction of the pilosebaceous follicular ostium size in vivo (pores) on the forehead
The clinical evaluation (count of non inflammatory and inflammatory acne lesions, IGA score) of the face
The reduction in visible follicles
The standardized numerical photographs of face and ¾ right and left profile in normal, parallel polarized, cross polarized and UV light
The analysis of the skin lipids of the forehead
The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the sebum and comedones constituents (nose wings)

This is a comparative, open-labelled study, on subjects with oily and acne prone skins on the face.

Each group includes 18 subjects.
