TS No. 129: Barrier Effect Efficacy Testing for Skin Protection
Skin is the largest organ of the human body. It is our first line of defense against external dirt, infections and other irritants that could potentially affect our health. Barrier protective products have been developed for skin protection that can ward off external harmful elements, which can penetrate the epidermis and cause untold damage to skin. White skin barrier creams are not as popular as sunblock, anti-wrinkle and moisturising lotions, they still play an important role in protecting the skin from substances, such as corrosive and toxic liquids or chemicals. Skin barrier creams are also used as general hypoallergenic protection from skin allergies for people with sensitive skin allergies, for example fro diaper rash and bed sores.
