Study Overview
Brief Summary
The study is aimed to assess the efficacy of two dietary supplements composed of a Wheat Polar Lipid Complex (WPLC) in reducing skin aging signs, in particular in improving firmness/elasticity, skin moisturization and skin surface properties.
Detailed Description
A double blind, parallel groups, placebo-controlled study is carried out on 72 healthy female subjects aged between 30 and 60 years old showing slight-moderate clinical signs of skin aging over the face. The study foresees 56 days of products intake. Evaluations of the parameters under study are performed at baseline, after 14, 28 and 56 days of products consumption. Moreover post-treatment evaluations are performed 56 days after the end of product intake.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Skin moisturization
Time Frame: 56 days post supplementation
Skin moisturization is measured by the Corneometer®, which analyze the dielectric constant and therefore the water content of the skin
Secondary Outcomes
- Transepidermal water loss(56 days post supplementation)
- Self-assessment of product efficacy(56 days)
- Skin lipidic profile(56 days)
- Skin smoothness(56 days post supplementation)
- Wrinkle depth(56 days post supplementation)
- Skin elasticity(56 days post supplementation)
- Skin roughness(56 days post supplementation)
