Avessia helps you understand personal care and cosmetic ingredient labels before you buy. Most product scanner apps start with a barcode. That can be convenient, but barcode records may be missing, outdated, region-specific or different from the product in your hand. Avessia takes a label-first approach. Scan the ingredient list printed on the package and Avessia uses server-side OCR to read the label, match ingredients against a curated database of more than 26,000 personal care and cosmetic ingredients, and generate an evidence-informed product report. The label is the source of truth. WHY AVESSIA IS DIFFERENT • Reads the actual ingredient label, not just a barcode record • Works with boutique, local, imported and newly reformulated products • Highlights ingredient-level concerns in plain language • Uses a curated database of 24,000+ ingredients • Provides evidence-informed product safety scoring • Explains ingredient function, typical use and risk classification • Includes scientific and regulatory references for deeper review • Lets you save scanned products to My Shelf PERSONALISED TO YOUR CONCERNS Different people care about different things. Avessia lets you personalise reports by selecting concern areas that matter to you, such as sensitive skin, fragrance sensitivity, pregnancy-conscious choices, endocrine disruption concerns, chemical sensitivity, parent and child-focused choices, environmental concerns and general ingredient transparency. When matching ingredients are found, Avessia highlights them so the report better reflects your priorities. MORE THAN A SIMPLE SCORE A single red, amber or green rating can be useful, but it does not tell the whole story. Avessia Premium lets you drill into each ingredient to see what it does, why it may have been flagged, how it is typically used, whether restrictions apply, and where the information comes from. The aim is practical ingredient transparency: clear, evidence-informed summaries without fear-driven claims. BUILT FOR REAL-WORLD SHOPPING Use Avessia when checking sunscreen, moisturiser, cleanser, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, fragrance, makeup, baby products and other personal care items. Because Avessia reads the label in front of you, it can help when a product is not in a barcode database, when a formula has changed, or when regional labelling differs. SAVE PRODUCTS TO MY SHELF Build your own personal product record. Save scans with a category, product name and thumbnail so you can revisit past decisions, compare products and remember what suited your needs.
