Filter by:Skin moisture is critical to avoid long-term skin damage. Without the necessary moisture, skin is unlikely to have the properties most commonly associated with healthy skin. Recent research has recently highlighted that rambutan extract, niacinamide, and glycoin can all help promote skin moisture and health. To help people experience better skin health, Thu Brulé has developed a serum designed to be used twice daily. Specifically, the test product in this trial was designed to help moisturize the skin and help lock in that moisture. The purpose of this trial is to examine the efficacy of the test product across an eight-week hybrid trial. The outcomes of interest include participants' perceptions of skin health and photographs/images taken of the skin.
Participants will be supplemented BFKE for a period of 8-weeks to improve skin health. The objective of the study is to evaluate the 'Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL)' that characterizes the skin barrier function of stratum corneum. Additional parameters include, evaluation of skin moisture content, wrinkling, elasticity, sagging, radiance and also on inflammatory biomarkers.
Carotenoids are yellow-orange fat soluble plant pigments primarily obtained from the diet that serve as an accurate biomarker for fruit and vegetable intake. Carotenoids have demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-obesogenic properties among others. Excess carotenoids are deposited in the skin for storage where they protect against UV skin damage and contribute to improvements in skin health (i.e., decrease the appearance of wrinkles). However, carotenoid status is linked to bioavailability and absorption, which has a high inter-individual variability. It has been hypothesized that inter-individual variations are related to the diversity of gut microbiota. The aim of the present study is to determine whether probiotic supplementation can enhance carotenoid status and responsiveness to carotenoid-mediated changes in blood and skin from intake of a supplement containing mixed forms of carotenoids in pre-menopausal women.
Solarplast is a unique mixture of antioxidant enzymes and single antioxidant molecules that are capable of attack oxidants that cause damage to the cells in the human body and cause premature aging. This mechanism may provide protection from stress, such as free radicals, heat, infection, as well as reduce inflammation and participate in the repair mechanism of the intestinal tract. Participants will consume Solarplast, or placebo, for 45 days with blood draws at day-0 and -45 in order to assess antioxidant capacity.
Consumption of dietary supplements has been found to modulate skin health. Individual ingredients such as collagen peptides, lutein and ceramides have been shown to improve skin health. Collagen peptides have been shown to clinically improve skin texture, decrease area of skin ultraviolet damage, increase skin hydration, and improve visible skin results such as hydration, elasticity, wrinkles and roughness. Lutein has been demonstrated to increase skin radiance, protect skin from ultraviolet light, and increase skin hydration. Ceramides derived from wheat have been shown to improve skin texture, increase skin hydration and improve visible skin attributes such as hydration, elasticity, and wrinkles. This study will have subjects consuming a nutritional supplement or placebo daily for 90 days to see if there is an effect on skin health. This study will also have the subjects using a facial cleansing device, which has been shown to improve skin health, on half of their face to determine if there is a synergistic effect between dietary supplement and cleansing device. It is believed, this mixture of collagen peptides, lutein and ceramides has not been studied and the study sponsor hypothesize that this blend of ingredients will have a positive impact on skin health.
This study determines the effects of a single application of different antiseptic skin cleansers on the composition of the skin surface microbiome using next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques. Twelve healthy volunteers will receive all three test products in a randomized order to compare the effects of each skin cleanser.
This is a single-center, prospective, single-blind pilot study to determine baby wipe formulations on an adult dermatitis model.
Healthy skin has been equated with a healthy diet leading to the "inside out" approach to skin health. Since the skin is the barrier to the external world, healthy skin should lead to overall better health. Conversely, the skin derives its nutrition from the internal body requiring the consumption of nutritional supplements for optimal health. This research attempts to examine skin attributes and improved appearance achieved after consumption of a state-of-the-art dietary supplement.
The aim of this study is to test if probiotics administered to healthy female subjects in a dairy format have any skin health benefits.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether short-term exposure to a compound found in some fruits and vegetables (anthocyanin), is effective in improving skin health and reducing the levels of various markers of cardiovascular disease risk. A range of skin health parameters are being studied and volunteers are also providing skin biopsy, urine and blood samples. 62 postmenopausal women have been recruited for this study.
