A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Sunscreen on Oil Control, Moisturization, and Skin Barrier Integrity in Adults With Oily Skin

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate 1) the efficacy of an investigational product (sunscreen) when compared to a control area (without product application) in controlling oiliness, oil shine and the effect on pores appearance in a 12-hour kinetics through a) Instrumental measurements, b) Expert Grader and c) Perceived efficacy; 2) the efficacy of an investigational product in reducing oiliness, improving hydration, the pores appearance and the integrity of the skin barrier, after 7 days of use and after 28 ± 2 days of use through instrumental measurements and perceived efficacy questionnaires.

The objectives of this study are:

To evaluate the efficacy of an investigational product (sunscreen) when compared to a control area (without product application) in controlling oiliness, oil shine and the effect on pores appearance in a 12-hour kinetics:

* Instrumental measurements with the Sebumeter® SM 815 equipment to assess oiliness control;
* Clinical efficacy evaluation carried out by Expert Grader
* Perceived efficacy through perception questionnaires

To evaluate the efficacy of an investigational product in reducing oiliness, improving hydration, pores appearance and the integrity of the skin barrier, after 7 days of use and after 28 ± 2 days of use, under normal conditions of use in adult participants through the following evaluations:

* Instrumental measurements with the Sebumeter® SM 815 equipment before and after 7 and 28 ± 2 days of use on the face to assess oil reduction;
* Instrumental measurements with the Corneometer® before and after 7 and 28 ± 2 days of use on the face to assess skin hydration;
* Instrumental measurements with the Tewameter® TM 300 before and after 7 and 28 ± 2 days of use on the face to assess the integrity/maintenance of the skin barrier;
* Facial images captured using Visia® CR equipment before and after 7 and 28 ± 2 days of use on the face;
* Perceived efficacy through perception questionnaires answered by research participants after 7 and 28 ± 2 days of use on the face;
* Open-ended emotional statement after 28 ± 2 days.
