About this trial

The study intends to evaluate the skin longevity through mitochondria protection efficacy of cosmetic products after 3 months of product application, under UV exposures or not, followed by skin biopsies.

Primary objective:

\- To assess the efficacy of the investigational active in skin mitochondria protection, after twelve weeks of product application with or without UV stress, by morphological and texture parameters measurements

Secondary objectives:

* To assess efficacy on other biomarkers of skin mitochondria with biopsies histological analyses * To assess efficacy by skin colorimetric measurements * To assess efficacy by visual scoring of skin pigmentation and erythema * To assess efficacy by skin untargeted full proteomic analysis * To assess efficacy by skin metabolomic analysis

Safety: to follow the Adverse Events all along the study

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Women between 35 and 45 years old, both included

Participant with skin phototype III according to Fitzpatrick classification

Uniform skin color all over the four zones (difference in ITA° between the 4 zones should not be more than 4°)

Average ITA° (Individual Typologic Angle calculated value) on the back over the four zones between 28° and 41° at screening / inclusion visit

Disqualifiers

Participant who is pregnant or who is planning to become pregnant during the study

Menopausal woman with absence of menstruation for more than one year

Participant having changed hormonal treatment (contraception...) within the last 3 months or having to planned to change during the study

Participant with bleeding disorders, bleeding with previous surgery and eventual use of drugs known to interfere with hemostasis which could impact on the biopsy collection
