MONAT Global – Skin Type Test

For the Skin Type Test, MONAT Global needed to communicate the "Clear and smooth skin" promise in the Skin Care category in a way shoppers could actually see not just read on a label. Standard claim copy and ingredient lists rarely move consumers in the few seconds they spend at shelf or in a consultation, especially when competing products list almost identical benefits.

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 and on message for MONAT Global.

USP Demo Solutions designed the Skin Type Test for MONAT Global around the Skin Type Test method, the same proof logic our team uses across global skin care programmes. The tool reduces the Clear and smooth skin story to a single visible reaction the consumer can trigger themselves, which gives the conversation a clear before/after moment instead of a one-way pitch.

The Monat Global team wanted to provide to their representatives, a powerful and easy way to engage with their consumers, helping them to better understand their skin and at the same time stimulate the intent to purchase. They did not want just another leaflet. They needed a...

It was built to substantiate claim areas such as hydration, cleansing & purity, all from the same physical interaction with the Skin Type Test, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the MONAT Global range.

The result for MONAT Global is a clear skin delivered through the Skin Type Test, something the consumer experiences first-hand rather than something they have to take on trust.

By replacing abstract product copy with a hands-on Skin Type Test moment, the Skin Type Test gives MONAT Global's skin care range a credible, science-backed conversation starter that moves the message from a label promise into a personal experience the shopper can repeat for a friend.

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