Claim: "Soften dry and cracked skin"

The Challenge

For the Hydration Test, Vasenol needed to communicate the "Soften dry and cracked skin" promise in the Body 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 Hydration 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 Vasenol.

The Approach

USP Demo Solutions designed the Hydration Test for Vasenol around the Hydration Test - Body method, the same proof logic our team uses across global body care programmes. The tool reduces the Soften dry and cracked 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.

As part of an extensive launch in Germany and Austria, Vasenol sought to connect with consumers in larger retail stores and pharmacies. The goal was to introduce its product range as a therapeutic solution for softening dry and cracked skin, while providing a diagnostic...

It was built to substantiate claim areas such as hydration, freshness, all from the same physical interaction with the Hydration Test, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the Vasenol range.

The Result

The result for Vasenol is a soft hands delivered through the Hydration 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 Hydration Test - Body moment, the Hydration Test gives Vasenol's body 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, Vasenol runs the Hydration Test primarily for retail activation, pharmacy, 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 Hydration Test - Body logic.
