These properties can then be used to define the performance of skin care products to provide direction in product formulation, research guidance, and claim substantiation.
1.2 Guidelines are provided for the definition of each product attribute or term, range of the rating scales, procedures for the manipulation of product alone and on the skin, selection and training of panelists, handling of products, and skin conditioning prior to tests.
