Hamacher Resource Group once again has pored over recent product launches to find the hottest ones to designate as Products to Watch. HRG’s new product team sifted through 244 new products in April — 6% of which were OTCs, 31% of which were wellness products and 63% of which were beauty items — and chose five that stood out for their innovation and potential on the shelf.

Adding to the Biofreeze brand’s portfolio of external analgesics, Performance Health introduced the Biofreeze Pain Relief Patch in a five-count box. The product is formulated to last up to eight hours and offers a mess-free application that can target painful areas.

Neuriva, a line of brain-focused vitamins from Reckitt Benckiser’s Schiff vitamin brand, rolled out its latest offering in April.
