Anti-Perspirant & Exfoliation Claim Panel
Skin irritation is one of the most significant concerns when it comes to cosmetic products. With the skin being constantly exposed to a variety of external and internal stressors, ensuring that cosmetic products are safe and non-irritating is crucial. Skin irritation occurs when a product causes a negative reaction on the skin, typically resulting in redness, swelling, itching, or burning sensations. These reactions can be caused by various factors, including harsh chemicals, fragrances, preservatives, or other ingredients in cosmetic formulations. For cosmetic products, skin irritation can result in adverse reactions for consumers, especially those with sensitive skin.

Biomarker Testing List:
| Biomarker | Remarks on the Biomarker |
|---|---|
| Oxidative Stress Marker (Malondialdehyde [MDA]) | Oxidative stress worsens acne; lower levels show antioxidant activity, reducing inflammation. |
| Sebum Production | Excessive sebum contributes to acne; reduction in sebum levels helps reduce clogged pores. |
| Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP-9) | Degrades skin tissue in inflamed areas; lower MMP-9 levels prevent acne scarring. |
| Inflammatory Cytokine (Interleukin-8 [IL-8]) | Attracts immune cells to infection sites; reduced IL-8 levels indicate reduced inflammatory response. |
| Cutibacterium acnes | Acne-causing bacteria; decreased bacterial load shows antibacterial effectiveness of the product. |
