U-Skin®: Fast-track your cosmetic performance testing by Microfactory via ZOOM #33
27 March 2025
Cosmetic product claims must be backed by rigorous scientific data, yet traditional in vivo testing on human panels is time-consuming, costly, and highly variable. U-Skin® changes the paradigm, offering a fast, reproducible, and scientifically validated alternative to assess makeup and skincare performance in just two hours. By replicating sweat and sebum excretion through a microfluidic synthetic skin, U-Skin® provides objective and repeatable measurements, bridging the gap between lab testing and real-world product performance. This game-changing technology reduces development time, optimizes formulation selection, and strengthens claim substantiation with clear, quantifiable results. One of U-Skin®’s greatest strengths is its ability to evaluate long-lasting, sweat-proof, and sebum-resistant properties in cosmetics. Makeup formulations can be tested under controlled conditions to predict breakdown, transfer resistance, and overall durability. Foundations, powders, eyeliners, and mascaras can be analyzed for sweat and humidity resistance, enabling brands to scientifically validate their long-wear claims with unprecedented speed and accuracy.
What Claims Can U-Skin® Validate?
• Long-wear & sweat/sebum resistance – Evaluate makeup durability under active conditions.
• Oil control & mattifying effects – Measure how well powders, primers, and skincare absorb excess sebum.
• Hydration retention & barrier function – Assess immediate moisturizing and protective effects of skincare. Get the film forming time and efficacy
• Optical properties & color stability – Quantify product effects on shine, light reflection, and tone correction.
• Comparative benchmarking – Objectively position products against market leaders.
Unlike human panel testing, U-Skin® eliminates variability and delivers consistent, measurable results in record time. It allows brands to de-risk formulation choices, accelerate development cycles, and substantiate claims with strong scientific evidence—all at a fraction of the cost.
