Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerance of a facial treatment on subjects with self-perceived sensitive skin

Introduction: Sensitive skin is commonly associated with compromised skin barrier function and may be exacerbated by environmental, topical and internal factors. Further, it is often characterized by sensorial and visual signs such as discomfort and red, blotchy appearance. Studies have shown that sensitive skin is associated with higher transepidermal water loss (TEWL). The present studies were conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of a facial moisturizer with D-Panthenol and centella asiatica derived madecassoside on subjects with self-perceived sensitive skin.
