Modicare – Skin Type Test

Claim: "Smooth skin"

Overview

The goal was to enable consultants to engage consumers more effectively, adding a scientific and professional element to their consultations while educating consumers about their skin type and needs.

USP’s Contribution USP Demo Solutions developed a multi-tester sensory marketing tool for Modicare, designed to seamlessly integrate into the consultant participation package. The tool featured easy-to-use test strips that accurately determined the consumer’s skin type within seconds, offering clear and objective results.

This solution not only educated consumers about their skin but also empowered consultants to deliver professional and personalized recommendations, boosting trust and engagement during consultations.

The Challenge

For the Skin Type Test, Modicare needed to make the "Smooth skin" promise something shoppers in the skin care category could see for themselves, not just read on a label. In the few seconds a shopper spends at shelf or in a consultation, copy and ingredient lists rarely land, especially when rival products advertise hydration, repair claims.

The brief for the Skin Type Test was to turn that abstract message into a tangible, repeatable proof point that retail staff, pharmacists or beauty advisors could run on demand, without lab equipment or specialist training, while staying on brand for Modicare.

The Approach

USP Demo Solutions built the Skin Type Test for Modicare around the Skin Type Test method, reducing the Smooth skin story to a single visible reaction the consumer can trigger themselves. That gives the conversation a clear before/after moment in the skin care aisle instead of a one-way pitch.

From the same physical interaction with the Skin Type Test, the demo substantiates claim areas such as hydration, repair, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the Modicare range.

The Result

The result for Modicare is a clear skin, delivered through the Skin Type Test as something the consumer experiences first-hand rather than has to take on trust.

By turning Modicare's "Smooth skin" message into a hands-on Skin Type Test moment, the Skin Type Test becomes a credible, science-backed conversation starter the shopper can repeat for a friend.

In the field, Modicare runs the Skin Type Test primarily for internal training, consultation tool, delivered in diagnostic tool so the same Skin Type Test proof point travels from a pharmacist's counter to a beauty advisor's tablet without losing its logic.

Because the Skin Type Test is run by the consumer rather than presented to them, Modicare earns a moment of genuine participation that lands harder than any printed skin care claim.

USP Demo Solutions engineers each Skin Type Test demo to be portable, on brand and repeatable, so Modicare can roll the Skin Type Test out across markets without retraining staff every time.
