Detailed Description

This study is two arms, randomized, double-blind controlled trial. 70 eligible partipants at two study sites will be enrolled and use randomly assigned products (study product plus nicotinamide supplement and placebo product) for 2 months. Participants will visit the study site for three times on baseline day, day 30, and day 60, all relevant data will be captured, measured via professional skin equipment system and recorded in the data management system. At the end of study, the explantory and statisitcal analysis will be conducted to validate the assumption that the using products with nicotinamide fortified could improve skin whitening in 30 to 50-year-old women.
