Brief Summary:
The study aims at evaluating skin wrinkling, puffiness and fatigue and dark circle appearance on asian and african-american healthy volunteer cohorts receiving a cosmetic formulation containing NMN (2%). The product will be evaluated after 28 and 56 days of twice-daily application in comparison with a reference cosmetic formulation using clinical scoring under dermatological control. Cosmetic acceptability and future use will also be subjectively evaluated by analysis of the subjects answers to an evaluation questionnaire.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Wrinkles [ Time Frame: Change from baseline (day 0) at days 28 and 56 of application ]
    clinical grading under dermatological control using 1) a 7 points Visual scale of Bazin from absence (0) to pronounced wrinkles (6) for the Asian panel and 2) a 5 points Visual scale of Bazin from absence (0) to pronounced wrinkles (4) for the Afro-American panel

  2. Eye bags [ Time Frame: Change from baseline (day 0) at days 28 and 56 of application ]
    clinical grading under dermatological control using 1) a 7 points Visual scale of Bazin from absence (0) to pronounced bags (6) for the Asian panel and 2) a 6 points Visual scale of Bazin from absence (0) to pronounced bags (5) for the Afro-American panel

  3. Dark circles [ Time Frame: Change from baseline (day 0) at days 28 and 56 of application ]
    clinical grading under dermatological control using 1) a 6 points Visual scale of Dermscan from absence (0) to important dark circles (6) for the Asian panel and 2) a 5 points Visual scale of Dermscan from absence (0) to important dark circles (4) for the Afro-American panel

  4. Relaxed features [ Time Frame: Change from baseline (day 0) at days 28 and 56 of application ]
    clinical grading under dermatological control using a 11 points Non structured scale from relaxed features (0) to looking tired (10) for both panels


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Subjective evaluation of the product agreeableness and its effects on skin texture, moisture, puffiness, brightness, youth, swelling, wrinkling, radiance and tone. [ Time Frame: At day 28 of application ]
    Self-assessment questionnaire on a 5 points scale from "I disagree" (-2) to "I agree" (+2).

  2. Subjective evaluation of the product agreeableness and its effects on skin texture, moisture, puffiness, brightness, youth, swelling, wrinkling, radiance and tone. [ Time Frame: At day 56 of application ]
    Self-assessment questionnaire on a 5 points scale from "I disagree" (-2) to "I agree" (+2).
