Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Photoprotective effect measured using an erythema grading scale (grades 0-5) for all investigational areas assessed by a trained evaluator at 24 h | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Skin redness measured using a Chromameter CR-400 (Konica Minolta) to record L* (lightness), a* (redness), and ITA° (overall colour) for all investigational areas at baseline, 24 h, and 1 week 2. Skin lightness measured using a Chromameter CR-400 (Konica Minolta) to record L*, a*, and ITA° for all investigational areas at baseline, 24 h and 1 week 3. Evolution of the pigmentation compared to negative control measured using a pigmentation grading scale (grades 0-4) for all investigational areas assessed by a trained evaluator at 1 week 4. Safety and tolerance measured using incidence of adverse events recorded between baseline and 1 week | — |
