Abstract

The present invention relates a method for improving skin condition by repeatedly applying lotion-treated absorbent articles to a wearer. When applied with sufficient frequency, the skin in the area covered by lotion-treated absorbent articles shows improvement in skin smoothness, relative to skin covered by untreated absorbent articles that do not comprise a skin care composition. The present invention also relates to methods for assessing skin smoothness in the area covered by an absorbent article.
