This overclaim case has damaged Elsheskin's image. The purpose of this study is to measure Elsheskin's crisis communication in dealing with the case of overclaiming the content of skincare products, Elsheskin's image after conducting crisis communication and how much influence the crisis communication of the case of overclaiming the content of skincare products has on Elsheskin's image.

This study also uses the Image theory (Boulding, 2007) which consists of knowledge, feelings, values and beliefs. The method used in this study is a quantitative approach with a survey method and a simple random sampling technique by distributing paper questionnaires to 80 respondents selected according to the characteristics of the study.
