These tests are supplemented by in vitro analyses using cultivated 3D skin models, whose lifelike texture and structure allow scientists to study human skin with pinpoint precision.

What does Dermatest® certified mean?

When you see the Dermatest® seal on a product, you can trust that it's been tested for safety and efficacy to the highest of standards. Dermatest® seal of approval is a clear mark of quality for products. This seal awarded to items is especially useful for baby essentials like diapers, baby wipes, lotion,  body wash, personal care products like cosmetics, and hygiene products like soap, shampoo, and shower gel.

In order to achieve the Dermatest® seal, the product has to be submitted to a series of tests to be able to earn that trademark. There are three "levels" of certification: Good, Very good, and Excellent. This provides information about the quality of the formula, as well as its safety and tolerance.
