Clinical trials provide a valuable service for both businesses in the cosmetics industry and the consumer. In a litigious society, clinical trials can be a way for those in the health and beauty industries to support claims made for the products and avoid lawsuits. Products are tested repeatedly to evaluate if they work for specific conditions or meet certain criteria.
Objective trials also test to determine whether particular ingredients in a product are effective and safe. In a day and age when new and exotic remedies for remaining beautiful abound, clinical trials that test for the efficacy of a particular ingredient establish credibility for the ingredient. In many ways, consumers benefit simply by learning about how new and effective products (and their ingredients) can improve their lives.
Fish collagen is a good example of how clinical trials can introduce new ingredients to the consumer. In a recent trial, a liquid fish collagen product that only contained water and the collagen was found to be an effective skin regimen for aging. As a result of the trial, consumers gained new information regarding a natural product that can combat the effects of aging.
