Study Overview

Brief Summary

The objective is to evaluate the effects on the skin of 3 foods supplements compared to placebo after daily intake for 3 months in female subjects presenting healthy skin.

Skin parameters measured are: the firmness of the skin and other biomechanical skin properties (elasticity, tonicity, density), cellulitis visibility, radiance complexion, skin condition (microrelief, skin barrier function and moisturizing)

Detailed Description

Study design: Monocentric, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, 3 groups in parallel.
