Summer is here, making it the perfect time to try a new product and earn some extra cash. With Consumer Product Testing Labs (CPT), you can do both easily—sign up, visit the CPT laboratory to qualify, try the product at home, and revisit CPT to report back (your feedback helps shape the final product). The best part is that you and your family can test stuff you can really use, like sunscreen, skincare products, and makeup, and kid-friendly products, like baby shampoo. With studies updated weekly, there are plenty of chances to sign up now and get on the list for future ones. Read on to learn more about the latest CPT studies and how to become a candidate, and check back here for updates. (featured photo credit: istock/Ladanifer)
Here are CPT’s newest must-know trials
With studies available for women, men, and children, CPT is easy to sign up for and participate in. Click on the links for more in-depth details about each study, and remember that the initial visit determines if you qualify. Additionally, it is worth noting that the studies are continually updated, and CPT frequently adds new ones, so be sure to follow CPT’s Facebook page for daily updates. When you’re ready to commit, check in with them to confirm if the study you’re interested in is still available. You can also call to make an appointment to get qualified to become a panelist and be notified of the latest studies. FYI—testing for sunscreen products is in the photobiology laboratory, and all take-home studies pay $30 and up, depending on the number of visits and how long the study lasts.
