Imagine you’re taking part in a study. You're given a new product and asked to use it for a few weeks. Meanwhile, a group of experts analyse the way your skin reacts. Simple, and scientific! These tests are called clinical trials and they're the most reliable way to figure out if a product really does what it promises to do.
What kind of clinical trials are done on Onshindo’s products?
All our products undergo clinical trials to confirm they’re safe and effective. The process starts in J.S Hamilton's labs with groups of 20 to 25 women, who are told how to use the product during the 28-day study.
Once that’s done, they complete a questionnaire which is used to establish the visible results provided by each product. At the same time, the lab assesses the difference every product has made in the case of every single one of the trial participants to confirm how effective said product is.
Why is it so important to carry out clinical trials?
- Real results: Thanks to clinical trials, we can set aside the different opinions of people who use the products and focus on the facts based on the efficacy data obtained during the clinical trial process.
- Safety first: During the trial, any risks the products might pose to certain skin types are identified so we can tweak formulas where necessary and guarantee they're safe to use.
- Personalisation: Do you have sensitive skin? Or greasy skin? Clinical trials allow us to better understand what ingredients are best for each skin type, and develop the best formulas.
Results of clinical trails on Onshindo’s products:
- Products in the NADESHIKOIRO Anti-ageing range: Considerable reduction of the number of wrinkles and an improvement in the skin’s elasticity.
- Product in the SAWAYAKA range: Keeps the skin hydrated for up to 24 hours after application and boosts hydration considerably after 28 days of continual use.
To sum up, clinical trials guide us towards the safest, most effective options, allowing us to care for our skin in a smart, conscious way.
