Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to evaluate the dermatological safety of the investigational products on healthy human subjects with sensitive skin.Primary irritation patch test is used widely for the evaluation of safety of cosmetics in humans.

Sample Size :Thirty Five (male and female, in a nearly ratio of 1:1) adult subjects in the age group of 18 years to 55 years (both inclusive)

Primary skin irritation results from reversible inflammatory changes in the skin following the application of a test substance.By this test, irritation potential of a substance is assessed by a single application of patch under

complete occlusion for 24 hrs and is done as per BIS standard (IS4011:1997) &IS 13424:2001
