Abstract
Human skin tissue sample methods and models for identifying and screening test agents as effective for providing skin tone benefits, methods for validating hypotheses for mechanisms driving skin pigmentation as well as methods for driving skin pigment levels in ex-vivo skin tissue. The method includes contacting a cultured human skin tissue sample with a test agent, generating a transcriptional profile from the sample, and comparing the results to a control to determine if the test agent is effective for providing a skin tone benefit.
