Application of an in vitro reconstructed human skin on cosmetics in skin irritation tests.

We may redefine the exposure method time for cosmetics. For resident cosmetic products, the exposure time is 18 hours. For cosmetic cleaning products, the exposure time is 1 hour, with 10% dilution. We suggest that skin irritation evaluation in 3D skin models have a tissue activity of <50% and, at the same time, have a relative expression of IL-1α that is 3-fold greater than baseline.
