Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Reference standard sunscreen for SPF P8  2.00 ± 0.05 mg/cm2 of the test product will be dispensed using a finger cot. Then spread over the whole test site, first with circular movements to gather the droplets and second in horizontal and vertical directions using light pressure. It will be applied once before the UV exposure. 
Intervention  sunscreen cream (PA++++)  2.00 ± 0.05 mg/cm2 of the test product will be dispensed using a finger cot. Then spread over the whole test site, first with circular movements to gather the droplets and second in horizontal and vertical directions using light pressure. It will be applied once before the UV exposure. 
Intervention  sunscreen spray (PA++++)  2.00 ± 0.05 mg/cm2 of the test product will be dispensed using a finger cot.

Response - NO
Brief Summary   The study employs a solar simulator to assess the protective efficacy of sunscreen on human skin. Participants undergo screening to determine eligibility, including ITA° value measurement. A provisional MEDu is established to set UV exposure ranges for untreated and treated sites. During the sunscreen test, one site is exposed to UV without protection, while others receive test and reference products. Erythema is evaluated 20±4 hours post-exposure. Water resistance is assessed through controlled immersion cycles, followed by air drying, before additional UV exposure to measure SPFiwr, adhering to ISO guidelines.
