These Good Housekeeping Beauty Award winners passed high-tech lab testing
Good Housekeeping used scientific tools and consumer testing on hundreds of products, with Olay and TRESemmé among the top performers.
Good Housekeeping recently evaluated hundreds of products for its 2026 Beauty Awards, using scientific tools and consumer testing to distinguish marketing claims from genuine efficacy.
With Americans spending billions annually on beauty products, determining true efficacy remains challenging for consumers navigating a saturated market flooded with competing claims.
The Beauty Lab employs the VISIA Complexion Analysis system to evaluate skin texture and wrinkles, while a Corneometer measures hydration levels before and after product application.
Top performers included Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, which increased skin moisturization 47% over 6 hours, alongside Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch Primer and TRESemmé Revitalized Color Vibrance & Shine Shampoo.
Sabina Wizemann, director of the Beauty Lab, confirmed these products passed rigorous evaluations, with full testing details and award winners available online for consumers.
