Eucerin (BEI) Face Serum Advert Banned Over Misleading Claim

An advertisement for Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler Epigenetic Serum, priced at £49, was banned due to misleading claims indicating users could look 'up to five years younger'. The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) investigated the marketing after receiving a consumer complaint, revealing the claimed study involved 160 participants over four weeks without a control group and raised concerns regarding its methodology. Beiersdorf, owner of Eucerin, stated the claim reflected a genuine maximum improvement and asserted all its studies adhere to industry standards. The advertisement is now deemed misleading and must not reappear in its previous form.
