  • Fantastic app

    This app is so so so helpful.
    Some pages are broken and I wasn’t sure where to put that feedback. Milia page needs a fix as it’s not go the information updated
  • My go to before buying

    I’ve had this app since it was released and use it whenever I’m looking for something new. I trust Caroline’s advice and recommendations implicitly.
    However, since upgrading to the new app, I find it glitchy. I can’t tap and open some products I want to read about which is frustrating.
    When I add more filters to look at products with a particular ingredient, eg peptides, add my profile and Caroline’s approved products, the app says there are 39 products to view but when I click on it, no products appear.
    I understand apps are always being updated so wanted to mention this.
    I’d also like to have a filter for types of products, eg cleansers with a filter for fragranced/fragrance free and filter balms, oils, creams etc
    I still love the app overall for information I can read and products I would never think to look at or purchase

  • CH highlights/reviews now under membership view only

    Love this app. I’ve had it since last year. I recently noticed that they revamped the app. While I like the look and organization of this new version, I’m super bummed I can’t see anything CH recommends, highlights, or reviews. You can only see it if you pay a membership. I’m truly bummed out about this because reading her input is what drew me to this app in the first place. Nothing wrong with wanting to charge for certain access, I busy wish that was still free.

  • Really useful

    Premium version
    The ability to find products and especially “founder favourites “ really good feature. Good articles and guides as well.
  • Useless

    All this app does is pair your skin up with expensive products. You’d be better off googling a few articles about skin.

  • Love love

    This is fabulous! I’m loving being able to look at all the skincare and cosmetics that are suited to my needs. The only silly thing is that I’m from the USA so I wonder in the future if there’s a way to add a feature converting the pounds to the individual’s particular currency.

    Developer Response

    Hello, Your feedback is important to us so thank you for taking the time to leave a 5 star review. Currently GBP is the preferred and only currency available for product prices. Feedback is reviewed regularly so that we can establish where this improvement might be implemented. Lucy, Skin Rocks Team.
  • Friendly user interface + Informative

    Beautifully designed app that explains skincare clearly and comprehensively.

    The explanations of ingredients are its strong point- very transparent, balanced and explained simply without sacrificing detail.

    The product reviews are fairly unremarkable, and the Skin Rocks products are hailed above all else (unsurprisingly), but the feature where you can save and review the products you own is a nice touch.

    I sincerely wish there was an option to download articles for offline viewing.

  • Great app but skin match not showing anymore 🙁

    The app is really helpful and I especially loved it when it was showing my skin match on different products I was searching. I don’t know if they’ve removed it as an option or it’s a bug. Tried to delete the app and reinstall it but still the same 🙁
  • Love it but wish it had more features to compare product uses

    I get this app out every time I’m stood in boots/space NK etc but I’d really love the section where you add your purchased products to put them in order of when to use and I’d like to be able to add an item I’m considering and be told if it’s the same as something I’m already using - Or if I shouldn’t use it alongside something I already am. For example today I have bought the Kate Somerville dermalquench with retinol but I already use Skin & Me and I don’t understand if they are the same thing? Or ok to use together? At the moment that section just feels like a Pinterest board. I also relied on the % marker for suitability but that seems to have disappeared. Love Caroline though and trust her 100% - I understand apps are always improved upon so hopefully these things are in the future.

  • Caroline Hirons sucks

    This is an app developed by a self-important hypocrite who can’t stand strong women with a different view. From what I’ve seen, the companies/products that get favourable recommendations are the ones that pay her for advertising.
