The aim of this study is to evaluate, with clinical and biological assessment methods, the effectiveness of the tested cosmetic product applied during 4 weeks of intensive treatment and compared to a Standard Medical Care (medicine shampoo) and to a comparative cosmetic shampoo, on mild to moderate recurrent squamous states of seborrheic dermatitis.
This study is conducted as a monocentric, randomized, controlled and blinded-label study, in parallel groups. A total number of 90 subjects included and randomized in 3 parallel groups: * Test group RV5263A - WS0060 cosmetic product * Comparative group: RV5263A - LC3302 cosmetic product * Standard medical care group 6 visits are planned: * Visit 1: Inclusion (Day 1) * Visit 2: Intermediate visit (Day 4) * Visit 3: Intermediate visit (Day 7) * Visit 4: Intermediate visit (Day 15 ± 1 day) * Visit 5: Intermediate visit (Day 22 ± 3 days) * Visit 6: End-of-study visit (Day 29 ± 3 days)
