Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Supportive care with Over-the-Counter (OCT) product

Participants will apply over-the-counter product for a certain period with or without light challenge

Other: Supportive care with OCT product
Participants will apply over-the-counter product for a certain period with or without light challenge. We will perform clinical assessments of the skin associated with product application as well as assess these changes with and without light challenge. Skin biopsies will be obtained following standard medical practice and will be used to analyze skin markers related to photoaging, pigmentation, oxidative stress, and other dermatologic conditions.
