    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Cosmetic Science
    • Skin Physiology

    Background:

    • Clinician recommendations for skincare products require evidence-based evaluations.
    • Skin hydration is a key indicator of skin health and barrier function.
    • Assessing the efficacy of cleansers and moisturizers is crucial for product development and patient guidance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To visualize and quantify changes in skin hydration using heatmap technology.
    • To evaluate the immediate and short-term effects of a gentle skin cleanser (GSC) on skin hydration.
    • To assess the impact of a moisturizing lotion (ML) on skin hydration over time.

    Main Methods:

    • An intra-individual, half-face, open-label study design was employed with healthy volunteers.
    • Skin hydration was measured at 30 points using a non-invasive method, with data visualized via Python-generated heatmaps.
    • Assessments were conducted at baseline, 30 minutes post-application, and after one week of moisturizing lotion use.

    Main Results:

    • Gentle skin cleanser (GSC) application resulted in a notable increase in skin hydration values within 30 minutes.
    • Moisturizing lotion (ML) application showed a significant hydration improvement at 30 minutes, with continued increases after one week of use.
    • Heatmap visualization provided a clear, intuitive representation of hydration changes across the facial skin.

    Conclusions:

    • Innovative heatmap technology effectively visualizes dynamic changes in skin hydration.
    • Both the gentle skin cleanser and moisturizing lotion demonstrated positive effects on skin hydration.
    • The study confirms the utility of heatmaps for evaluating the efficacy of topical skincare products.
