Pollutants are known to create a cutaneous stress that generates oxidation and inflammation responses in the skin, in turn leading to compromised skin protective barrier, decreased skin hydration and accelerated skin aging. Clinical studies to objectively measure skin characteristics are well recognized and documented. Moreover, you can visit Evalulab website for details on possible test options to evaluate product efficacy claims.
The growing consumer concerns for pollutants impact on the skin is pressuring industry for novel raw materials and skin care products that can not solely correct or improve compromised or aging skin, but that also provide an active shield against the environment. Evalulab is now proposing additional clinical (in vivo) tests to evaluate the capacity of products to form a protective shield on the skin surface.
