Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of a Barrier Renew Cleanser, Barrier Renew PM Moisturizer, and mineral sunscreen in the treatment of redness.
Detailed Description
Enrolled subjects will undergo treatment with Barrier Renew Cleanser, Barrier Renew PM Moisturizer, and mineral sunscreen. Cleanser and Barrier Renew PM moisturizer will be used twice daily. Mineral sunscreen will be used every morning and throughout the day as indicated. Subjects satisfying all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled in this trial. Prior to receiving any study treatment, mandatory photography using the VISIA system will be done. Patients will return for follow-up assessments at week 2, 4 and 8.

- •Subjects must be able and willing to provide written informed consent and photography release
- •At the baseline evaluation, all subjects must exhibit all of the following:
- •Mild to moderate confluent facial redness or blotchy redness
- •Mild to moderate score (1-6) for tactile roughness or dryness.
- •Subject must be in good general health with no other skin disease, disease state or physical condition which would impair evaluation of the areas to be treated or which would increase the subject's health risk by study participation.
- •Subjects must have a willingness to minimize sun exposure, avoid direct sun exposure on the face, and avoid the use of tanning beds for the entire duration of the study. Must be willing to wear a hat and reapply sunscreen if sun exposure is unavoidable.
- •Subjects must be willing and able to understand and comply with the requirements of the study including minimizing external factors that might trigger redness flare-ups (e.g. spicy foods, excessively hot or cold environments, prolonged sun exposure, strong winds and alcoholic beverages), apply the products as instructed, return for the required treatment period visits, comply with therapy prohibitions, and be able to complete the study.
- •For female subjects of childbearing potential, must be willing to use an acceptable form of birth control during the entire course of the study. All systemic birth control measures must be in consistent use for at least 30 days prior to study enrollment.
- •A female is considered of childbearing potential unless she is postmenopausal, without a uterus and/or both ovaries, or has had a bilateral tubal ligation.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Subjects who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or nursing a child.
- •Subject using systemic or topical anti-inflammatory agents with the exception of OTC acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol), ibuprofen (e.g., Advil), or aspirin for 5 days prior to the baseline visit and the duration of the trial
- •Subject who could not agree to not use systemic or topical anti-inflammatory agents, with the exception of OTC acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol), ibuprofen (e.g., Advil), or aspirin during the course of the study.
- •Subjects who exhibit severe or advanced redness (persistent deep erythema, telangiectasia forming sprays, papules, pustules, nodules with variable plaque-like edema, or phymatous change).
- •Subjects who have used a personal product on the face prior to the study start, which in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with the evaluation of the test articles in the time frame below
- •Retinoids and other vitamin A derivatives within 1 month
- •Exfoliating and/or keratolytic products including alpha- or beta-hydroxy acids within 2 weeks
- •Subjects who have taken a medication prior to the study start, which in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with the evaluation of the test articles. These medications may include, but are not limited to, the use of any medication to treat rosacea, oral or topical antibiotics, steroids, antifungals, antimicrobials or acne medications for two weeks prior to study start or the time period specified below
- •Systemic retinoids within 6 months
- •Systemic tetracycline class antibiotics within 2 months
