Description

Barrier function and water content are among the most important areas in the field of cosmetics. These skin parameters are usually measured by using quantitative devices, however, evaluation with these contact-measurement devices is limited to single-point measurement. Recently, the barrier function of the stratum corneum was visualized by topically applying fluorescein to the skin surface and the water content was visualized by using near infrared (NIR) cameras. These visualizing techniques enabled the acquisition of two-dimensional (2D) information of the skin conditions.
