## What is Makeup Expiration?

Most cosmetics never print an expiry date. They print a small open-jar symbol marked 12M or 6M instead, meaning the product lasts that many months once it has been opened.

Which means an unopened product has no expiry date at all. The clock starts when you open it.

Shelfie is built around that one idea.

THE CLOCK STARTS WHEN YOU OPEN IT
An unopened product shows "Not started" rather than an invented date. One tap on "I opened this today" starts its clock, and Shelfie works out when it turns. Opened it weeks ago? Pick the day instead.

PHOTOGRAPH IT, DON'T TYPE IT
Scan the barcode if there is one, then photograph the front and the back. Shelfie reads the label on your phone and fills in the brand, the product, the open-jar months and any printed expiry date. Anything it got wrong can be fixed with a tap, and the other lines it read are offered underneath. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, Apple's on-device model helps tell the brand from the product name.

ALREADY OWN IT?
In a shop, scan a barcode, and Shelfie checks your own shelf: whether you already have one, how you rated it, or when you last used one up. It works without signal.

ONE SHELF, SORTED BY WHAT NEEDS YOU
No folders to set up. Everything is grouped by urgency, so the things that need attention are always at the top and everything else stays quiet.

SUNSCREEN IS TREATED PROPERLY
Sunscreen goes by its printed date, never the open-jar symbol, because its SPF degrades on its own schedule. Shelfie knows the difference.

REMINDERS THAT NAME THE THING
A reminder tells you what is expiring and when, in one notification a day at most. Choose how far ahead you want to know and the time of day that suits you, and add a Sunday summary if you like.

REMEMBER WHAT YOU LOVED
Rate products out of five and heart your favourites, then find them again before you rebuy. Finished products move to their own list, kept apart from the ones you binned, so you can see what you actually get through.

YOUR ROUTINE, WITH WHAT'S IN IT
Set out your morning and evening skincare steps with the product in each, and see when one is about to run out.

INGREDIENTS YOU AVOID
Write down the ingredients your skin reacts to. Shelfie shows you where they appear on your products' labels, and on new products when you scan them in a shop. It reports what is listed; it never judges.

BATCH CODES
For brands that publish how their batch codes work, Shelfie turns the code stamped on the pack into the month it was made, and estimates a date for products you have not opened yet.

YOUR SHELF STAYS YOURS
Labels are read on your phone and your photos stay on it. There is no account to create, no server holding your collection and no ads.

SHELFIE PLUS
The free shelf holds five products.
Plus lifts that for good and adds multiple shelves, custom reminder schedules and export. One payment, yours forever. No subscription, nothing renews.
