Color Cosmetics Testing

We use validated instrumental and clinical methods to generate precise, reproducible data to substantiate product claims. Services include:

• Color persistence and long-lasting hold measurement using colorimetric analysis (ΔE* and remanence %)
• Water and sweat resistance evaluation under controlled exposure conditions
• Gloss and shine measurement using gloss meters
• Makeup removal efficacy through quantified color reduction
• Skin care benefit assessment for multi-functional products, including hydration and other long-term skin effects

We assess product performance through trained expert grading and consumer perception studies. Services include:

• Uniformity and coverage assessment
• Long-lasting appearance evaluation
• Smudge and transfer perception analysis
• Mascara performance. including curling, lengthening and volume effects

We provide standardized visual evidence to support claims and enhance consumer understanding. Services include:

• Standardized photo bench imaging
• Facial and close-up imaging systems
• Zoom and texture analysis for skin, lips, eyes and nails
• Before-and-after visual comparisons

We evaluate product stability and performance under environmental stress. Services include:

• High temperature exposure testing
• High humidity testing
• Perspiration simulation
• Assessment of flow, smearing and color degradation

We offer dedicated protocols for nail products to support specific claims. Services include:

• Drying time assessment at defined intervals
• Long-lasting wear evaluation on nails
• Gloss retention measurement

We test a wide range of products, including foundations, mascaras, eye shadows, lipsticks, lip glosses and nail polishes, using tailored protocols for each format.

We support claims such as long wear, heat and humidity resistance, transfer resistance, waterproof performance, uniform coverage and mascara effects such as curling, lengthening and volume.

We measure color persistence over time using instrumental methods such as colorimetric analysis, combined with visual and expert assessments to evaluate how well the product maintains its appearance.

We assess performance after controlled exposure to water, sweat, heat and humidity, measuring any changes in color, stability or appearance under defined conditions.

Yes – we combine objective instrumental measurements with expert grading, consumer perception studies and standardized imaging to provide comprehensive, claim-ready results.

Yes – we use standardized photo benches and imaging systems to capture before-and-after comparisons, helping you clearly demonstrate product performance and durability.
