Neutrogena – Skin Type Consulting Tool

For the Skin Type Consulting Tool, Neutrogena needed to communicate the "Clear 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 Consulting Tool 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 Neutrogena.

USP Demo Solutions designed the Skin Type Consulting Tool for Neutrogena around the Skin Type Test method, the same proof logic our team uses across global skin care programmes. The tool reduces the Clear 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.

Neutrogena’s team faced the challenge of helping customers understand their individual skin types to make informed product choices. To address this, Neutrogena sought an innovative Skin Type Test Tool that would enable customers to self-evaluate their skin and recognize the need...

It was built to substantiate claim areas such as oil control, all from the same physical interaction with the Skin Type Consulting Tool, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the Neutrogena range.

The result for Neutrogena is a educate consumer on skin matters delivered through the Skin Type Consulting Tool, 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 Consulting Tool gives Neutrogena'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, Neutrogena runs the Skin Type Consulting Tool primarily for retail activation, consultation tool, 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.
