Our in vivo skin testing utilises non-invasive Courage + Khazaka skin probes to determine measurements of skin such as elasticity, moisturisation, wrinkle measurement, skin barrier efficacy and skin sebum/oil production.
Shannon ABC has a reserve panel of approximately 100 volunteers that can be involved in efficacy testing of cosmetic products. Studies range from 24 hours to 4 weeks, depending on company requirements, end point measures required and products tested. The benefits to the company are the ability to market their product’s efficacy using scientifically proven, quantitative data and ensuring compliance with Commission Regulation (EU) No 655/2013.
