Hello Q– thanks for your question.
Let me explain: When we say ”dermatologically tested”, what we mean is that tests prove the very good skin compatibility of our products. Under strict protocols we look at how the human skin reacts to being exposed to our pads. A dermatologist is present during these tests to grade the reaction of the skin and look at overall test results.
These tests are conducted with the help of people who volunteer to be a part of the research. There is no animal testing involved in this.
In general, we do not test Always products on animals. On very rare occasions, we may be explicitly forced by law to test by-products (an individual product component). However, we do this only when required or if all other reasonable options for using alternative tests have been exhausted. P&G is proud of its record in developing alternatives to animal testing and we urge you to learn more about our policy on animal testing at our website (http://www.pg.com/science/animal_alt.shtml).
Hope this helps!

Hi Kate!
Thank you for your email! As you may appreciate, detailed marketing information about a specific brand is confidential, so I am afraid I cannot share this with you. If you want to get some general data about Procter&Gamble, please visit our corporate website at www.proctergamble.com I also found a link with some general Procter&Gamble marketing information for you: go to http://ukconsumers.custhelp.com/ and select "Students/teachers" under the "Search by category box".
I am sorry I cannot help you more with your query!
Best of luck with your project!
