Products to Watch: HRG’s 5 new and noteworthy product picks from September 2022

From the 90 new products that hit store shelves in September, HRG’s new product team found five standouts.

Product introductions continued their see-saw pattern in 2022 — up one month and down the next. The introductions increased again in September, as job growth remained strong and consumer spending continued to drive retail sales data. For the month, suppliers unveiled 90 new products, which is a jump from the 59 they offered in August. Waukesha, Wis.-based HRG reviewed 37 products in the health category, 33 in the wellness sector and 20 beauty items to see which ones stood out as Products to Watch. Here is what they found:

1. Delsym No Mess Vapor Roll-on Ointment   
The Delsym No Mess Vapor Roll-on from Reckitt includes 100% natural active ingredients, including camphor, eucalyptus oil and menthol. Featuring a roll-on applicator that keeps hands clean during use, the cough suppressant/topical analgesic is safe for consumers as young as 2 years old, the brand said. The ointment comes in a 1.76-oz. size.
