Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  JHB-78   The test product will be applied by the study personnel at all the study visits (day 1 to day 8) and the assessment will carried out after 30 minutes of test product application. a.The Test product (bar) is moistened with water and is rotated 5 times in the palm to generate foam. b. The bar is rubbed directly on the demarcated assessment site 5 times, following a rectangular pattern to cover the entire assessment site. c. The bar is rotated 5 times between 2 palms with a little water to aid generate dense foam. d. The dense foam is transferred onto the assessment site and rubbed across the assessment site by rotation motion 5 times. e. Foam is retained on the application/assessment site for 90 seconds. f. Foam is rinsed with clean water for 20 seconds, ensuring complete removal of foam from the site.  
Intervention  Moisturiser Premix FMP-82   About 125µl of the Test Moisturizer Premix will be dispensed and spread all over evenly on the designated test site on day 9. The Moisturizer pre-mix is rubbed following 20 clockwise and 20 anti-clockwise circular motions to aid absorption in the skin. Assessments will be carried out 30 mins post moisturizer mix application. 
Intervention  UDS-35   The test product will be applied by the study personnel at all the study visits (day 1 to day 8) and the assessment will carried out after 30 minutes of test product application. a.The Test product (bar) is moistened with water and is rotated 5 times in the palm to generate foam. b. The bar is rubbed directly on the demarcated assessment site 5 times, following a rectangular pattern to cover the entire assessment site. c. The bar is rotated 5 times between 2 palms with a little water to aid generate dense foam. d. The dense foam is transferred onto the assessment site and rubbed across the assessment site by rotation motion 5 times. e. Foam is retained on the application/assessment site for 90 seconds. f. Foam is rinsed with clean water for 20 seconds, ensuring complete removal of foam from the site. 
Comparator Agent  Untreated control  No test product will be applied on the site demarcated as an untreated control site and remain as untreated.  
Comparator Agent  Water treated control   No test product will be applied on the site demarcated as a water-treated control site.

Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
This study is a randomized, Single-blinded, controlled study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of test products in improving skin hydration, skin barrier function and its maintenance, and improved skin radiance/luminance  compared to baseline at defined time points following the application of test products on the forearm. Subjects will be screened based on inclusion/exclusion criteria and enrolled after providing informed consent.  At Visit 1, baseline instrumental and dermatological assessments (hydration, barrier function, dryness, smoothness, and safety) will be conducted after acclimatization. The test, reference, water, and untreated control products will be applied. Visits 2 to 8 will involve product applications. On visit 8, the test products will be applied and the assessments for hydration, barrier function, dryness, smoothness, and safety will be carried out after 30 minutes. On Visit 9, a moisturizer pre-mix will be applied, and efficacy will be assessed at baseline, 30 minutes post-product application and 30 minutes post rinse off of the pre-mix.
study duration: approximately 9 days for each subject excluding screening visit.
