What Does Dermatologist Tested Mean?

In this article
  1. Tested vs approved
  2. What to ask
  3. Our approach

Dermatologist tested sounds like a doctor checked your detergent and gave it a gold star. The truth is a bit more specific.

Quick answer: it usually means a dermatologist oversaw some kind of skin test, often a patch test on a group of volunteers. It doesn't mean approved or recommended.†

Tested vs approved

ClaimWhat it usually means
Dermatologist testedA test was overseen by a dermatologist
Dermatologist recommendedSome dermatologists recommend it
Dermatologist approvedNo standard meaning†

What to ask

  1. How many people were tested?
  2. What kind of test? Patch test, use test or both.
  3. What were the results?
  4. Who ran it?

A claim with numbers behind it beats a claim with a lab coat on it.

Our approach

We don't use skin-test claims for Just 7 yet. If we test, we'll publish what we did and what we found.†

FAQ

Does dermatologist tested mean safe for everyone? No. People react differently.

Is the claim regulated? There's no set standard for the wording.†
