Kenvue to Showcase New Clinical Data on Skin Longevity, Hydration and Sun Protection at American Academy of Dermatology Association Meeting

Kenvue Inc. (NYSE: KVUE) will share new clinical data demonstrating how its iconic brands are leveraging the latest science to shape the future of the Skin Health & Beauty category at the 2025 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting, set for March 7-11, 2025 at the Orlando Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.

In findings from the 14 clinical studies detailing new Kenvue scientific research, the Company will present evidence alongside industry experts on the effectiveness of formulations behind iconic brands such as Neutrogena® and Aveeno® in cellular health for skin longevity, superior hydration, and exceptional protection against UVA sun damage. The Company’s exhibit floor booth #2503 will also feature immersive and innovative experiences from Neutrogena®, Aveeno®, NeoStrata®, Lubriderm® and Rogaine®.

“Our Skin Health and Beauty brands are at the forefront of next-generation science as high-performance products that are effective in promoting the health and longevity of skin,” said Adam Ricciardone, Head of R&D, Global Skin Health & Beauty. “The results of these clinical studies further illustrate our commitment to developing innovative, science-backed experiences for consumers that are recommended by industry experts, and our dedication to shaping a new view of care for Skin Health & Beauty in the future.”

New research being presented by Kenvue during AAD found:

• Twice daily use of Neutrogena^® Collagen Bank, a facial moisturizer featuring a patented micro-peptide technology to penetrate deep surface layers that support collagen production, including the SPF formulation, in the morning diminished collagen loss during the pre-aging phase. This regimen helps improve skin radiance, fine lines, firmness, texture and elasticity, effectively reducing early signs of aging.¹
• Leveraging a technique called the “open sandwich” method, where retinoids are applied either before or after moisturization with Neutrogena^® Hydro Boost Water Cream, ensures optimal hydration, especially for those with sensitive skin.²
• Applying an oat-based Aveeno® liquid wash and moisturizer regimen for infants, with products like Aveeno® Baby Eczema Therapy Wash and Aveeno® Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Balm, improves hydration, the integrity of the skin barrier, and also enhances the overall quality of life for infants.³In a separate study, oat flour, a key ingredient across the entire Aveeno® product line, was also found to boost the production of hyaluronic acid (HA) by 43%, a key component for overall skin hydration.⁴
• Pure mineral sunscreens with a high SPF have variability in effectiveness of UVA protection, premature aging, and aesthetics. New Neutrogena^®Ultra Sheer Mineral Face Liquid SPF 70 offers 3x more UVA protection and 30% less whitening versus leading competitors, using an exclusive technology that maximizes the efficacy potential of the UV filters through proper and uniform mineral dispersion.⁵
