Summary

The goal is this study is to evaluate how the skin surface lipid composition is correlated with overall sebum production, barrier function, and inflammatory disease status. We hypothesize that there will be differences in the skin surface composition among subjects of various groups:

1. Young vs older healthy population
2. Atopic dermatitis vs Acne vs Healthy controls
3. Active smokers vs non-smoker controls

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Skin Surface Lipid Collection and Skin Barrier Function

All five groups will undergo the same study intervention: skin surface lipid collection via tapes and skin barrier function evaluated with non-invasive painless devices.
