## About this tender

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) are looking to commission a large-scale survey to assess consumer usage in personal care products, alongside the preparatory work required to design and deliver it.

The aim of this project is to assess the usage of selected cosmetics and personal care products via a consumer usage survey and generate an up to date and representative data set examining patterns of use for cosmetic and personal care products in the UK. This will also involve generating a data set examining the difference in use of cosmetic and toiletries between demographic groups.

By undertaking the research, it will allow BEIS's Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS), the Scientific Advisory Group on Chemical Safety in Consumer Products (SAG-CS) and industry to deliver more accurate chemical risk assessments by improving the accuracy of the exposure assessments used. By measuring demographic characteristics against cosmetic and personal care usage, it will provide OPSS a clearer picture as to the influence demographic characteristics have on cosmetic and personal care usage.

By undertaking this pro-active piece of research into current consumer usage patterns, OPSS will be able to create policies to ensure that consumers are better protected, while championing diversity and inclusion.

This project will be separated out into 5 phases:

Phase 1: Product listing, sampling agreement and survey methodology.

Phase 2: Sense checking and cognitive testing of respondents

Phase 3: Survey sent out to respondents:

Phase 4: Survey response data collection and analysis

Phase 4a: Complementary diary usage

### Phase 5: Final Report

The preliminary budget for this work is Â£100,000 (excluding VAT).

We expect this project to run from 30/09/2022.
