Nutricosmetic Testing

Demonstrate the effectiveness of your nutricosmetic supplements with SGS testing, delivering credible, claim-ready evidence for skin, hair and nail health.

Dietary supplements targeting beauty-from-within benefits must demonstrate clear, measurable effects on skin, hair and nails. Substantiating claims – such as improved hydration, elasticity, hair strength or nail quality – is essential for consumer trust and regulatory acceptance.

We provide comprehensive testing and evaluation solutions for ingestible products, combining clinical expertise, advanced bioinstrumentation, imaging and analytical measurements. Our approach links internal supplementation to externally measurable outcomes, generating robust evidence to support visible beauty claims.
