When we set out to prove what a simple three step routine could do, we partnered with an independent third party research firm to run a 28 day in home use test. The study included 48 participants representing Fitzpatrick Skin Types I through VI and a wide range of skin goals and concerns. Everyone used the full Jo Collection Nighttime Essentials routine nightly, following a consistent protocol.
We believe transparency builds trust, so the results shown here reflect the study outcomes exactly as reported by the independent research team. The results reflect how this system performs on real people with real, diverse skin.
- n = 48 participants
- age range: 22- 55 years old
- 4 week Consumer Perception Trial
- Fitzpatrick Scale Skin Types I-IV
- Study Conducted October-November 2025.
- Results reflect data collected day 1, 14, 28.
For this study, we partnered with an independent third party research firm (The Benchmarking Company) to run a 28 day in home use test on the three products in the Jo Collection Nighttime Essentials Kit: Green Queen Hydrating Facial Cleanser, The Pineapple Peel Daily Leave on Exfoliator, and Hydrating Night Cream. Fifty participants were recruited and forty eight completed the full protocol and all required surveys. Each panelist used the cleanser twice a day and used the peel and night cream every evening for the full 28 days. They completed self assessment questionnaires on Day 1, Day 14, and Day 28 to report on product experience and perceived benefits. All claims were evaluated using a standard four point scale (Strongly Agree, Agree, Disagree, Strongly Disagree). The products were fully branded during testing so panelists evaluated them as they would in real life.
These results are based on consumer self-assessment collected during a controlled in-home use test. They reflect participant perception, not medical claims or instrumental measurements.
This study was run using industry standard methods for evaluating consumer perception results. The independent research team followed the ASTM guidelines for sensory claim substantiation and used binomial T tests to analyze changes over time. All findings were reviewed at a 95 percent confidence interval.
These results come from a 28 day consumer perception study. Because the study group was limited in size, the findings are not intended to represent outcomes for every individual. Instead, they reflect the shared experiences of participants who followed the same routine over the same period of time.
All results are based on participant self-assessment. They describe how users perceived changes in the look and feel of their skin, rather than clinical diagnoses or instrument-based measurements.
As with any skincare routine, individual results may vary based on skin type, age, and how consistently the products are used. These results are meant to provide transparency and real-world context, not guarantees.
We believe skincare brands should show their work. That is why we publish our methodologies, results, and limitations rather than relying on vague marketing claims.
