Dermatologist-tested means safety testing takes place under the supervision of a dermatologist. Safety testing performed under the supervision of a dermatologist can include RIPT (repeated insult patch testing), which tests the irritation and sensitization potential of a product, as well as safety-in-use testing which reflects typical consumer use and exposure to a product. During such testing, a dermatologist will observe, record, and evaluate any skin reactions to confirm or not the irritation potential or allergenicity of the product which ultimately affirms the product’s safety.
