Exploring Accessible Beauty for Individuals With Upper Extremity Deficits
Exploring Accessible Beauty: A Study on Enhancing Beauty Product Accessibility for Individuals With Upper Extremity Deficits
Study Overview

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Individuals with upper extremity disabilities face unique challenges when it comes to using beauty products. These disabilities can include conditions such as limb loss, limited mobility, or dexterity impairments, which can significantly impact their ability to engage in self-care and beauty routines. The accessibility of beauty products is crucial to ensure that individuals with upper extremity disabilities have equal opportunities to participate in activities that promote self-expression and confidence.
Research in the field of accessible design has highlighted the importance of inclusive product development across various industries, including cosmetics and personal care. However, limited attention has been given specifically to beauty products and their usability for individuals with upper extremity disabilities.
To address this gap, studies are being conducted to assess the accessibility of beauty products and identify potential barriers and solutions. These studies typically examine factors such as packaging design, ergonomics of product applicators, ease of grip, and maneuverability. By understanding the specific challenges faced by individuals with upper extremity disabilities, researchers can propose modifications and design considerations that enhance accessibility.

- Participants who are not regular users of beauty products.
- Inability to understand and communicate in the language of the study.
- Any medical or psychological condition that may affect the participant's ability to provide informed consent or engage in the study activities safely.
- Individuals who experience facial skin or eye irritation reported by subject or observed by evaluator at baseline visit
- History of allergic reactions, and/or known allergies to cosmetic ingredients, toiletries, sunscreens, etc.
- Immunocompromised subjects
- Individuals who may experience changes in hormones, such as just those using oral contraception for less than three months before the screening visit or who have changed hormonal contraceptive methods within the three months before the Baseline visit or planning to modify hormonal contraception treatment within the duration of the study.
- Known to be pregnant, lactating or planning to become pregnant within six months. Subjects who become pregnant during the study must inform the Principal Investigator immediately.

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Minimal to moderate upper extremity deficits
|
Participants will be provided with a selection of beauty products items including foundation, concealer, blush, highlighter, and lipstick, specifically chosen for their potential accessibility features.
They will have a specified trial period during which they can use the products as part of their regular beauty routines.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Likert Scale
Time Frame: Complete on Day 7
|
It is a validated self-reported instrument to assess packaging of the makeup.
A few questions will focus on shape of the cap, length of the wand, shape of the doe foot, finish of the components, how it affects grip, and weight of the component/applicator. Possible scores range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).

Likert Scale
Time Frame: Complete on Day 14
|
It is a validated self-reported instrument to assess packaging of the makeup.
A few questions will focus on shape of the cap, length of the wand, shape of the doe foot, finish of the components, how it affects grip, and weight of the component/applicator. Possible scores range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
|
Complete on Day 14
|
Pre-test Questionnaire
Time Frame: At baseline
|
Participants will complete questionnaires that assess their demographics, disability characteristics, and previous experiences with beauty products.
|
At baseline
|
Accessibility Evaluation
Time Frame: Day 7, after use of beauty products
|
Participants will evaluate the beauty products based on predefined criteria, including ease of grip, maneuverability, packaging design, and product applicators.
They will document their experiences, challenges faced, and any suggestions for improvements.
Possible scores range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
|
Day 7, after use of beauty products
|
Accessibility Evaluation
Time Frame: Day 14, after use of beauty products at end of study
|
Participants will evaluate the beauty products based on predefined criteria, including ease of grip, maneuverability, packaging design, and product applicators.
They will document their experiences, challenges faced, and any suggestions for improvements.
Possible scores range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
|
Day 14, after use of beauty products at end of study
|
Post-test Questionnaire
Time Frame: Day 14, after use of beauty products at end of study
|
Participants will assess changes in their perceptions and experiences with the beauty products.
This will include questions about satisfaction, usability, and any perceived improvements in accessibility.
Possible scores range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
|
Day 14, after use of beauty products at end of study
