Dermatologically tested
May 30, 2017 – Marina Engervik
Like most other smaller brands, we have always tested our products on friends and acquaintances. This is dermatological testing and we learn a lot from this process, but we wanted to put our products under the microscope of one of the larger testing institutes in Europe and contacted Derma Consult GmbH in Germany. Read more below about how it went!
WHAT IS DERMATOLOGICAL TESTING?
Dermatological testing means and is defined as a product being tested on the skin to check for any skin reactions. Our products have now been tested under the supervision of a dermatologist. The test took place in a medical laboratory in Germany by a dermatologist and a pharmacist. The test was carried out on 50 volunteers between the ages of 18-68, men and women. The test subjects varied between different skin types; normal, eczema, allergic and sensitive skin.
The test was conducted according to the guidelines of COLIPA / COSMETICS EUROPE. Because it was a study with humans, it was carried out with respect to the principle requirements of the Declaration of Helsinki (1964) and later revisions.
During the testing period, the subjects refrained from using other products in the test areas.
TOP SCORE!
It's really great when all Marina Miracle products got top scores in the test. No one had any kind of reaction and the products were approved as 'harmless'. Our products are now approved by dermatologists as products that are good and safe to use for all skin types.
We got the same good results for all our products. Here you can see an excerpt from the test for Herbal Face Oil as an example:
