Used to be better
One of the most valuable features of this app is to be able to find products that do not contain allergens - which is rare and hard to find. So why on earth can you not search by products which DO contain your allergen? Furthermore, what is the value of the new the “skinsafe best for sensitive skin” label on things that aren’t safe for YOU? Highly recommend checking out the Fig food app for ways this could be so much more helpful and valuable

Love this app!!
just want to say thank you for building this wonderful app. it truly has made my life easier. I’m extremely grateful because it has helped me lessens the amount of allergic reactions I get.
A paid app should work better
In order to have features that are necessary to find out what products you can use, you need a subscription. Fine, we can call that fair since it is a service. However, what you pay for a yearly subscription, the app should work so much better. It is very clunky and not intuitive. I would hope my subscription money would go towards app development. Some major issues:
- cannot search for key words and if it is even misspelled by 1 letter you have 0 search results. For example searching “Castile soap” would not work. You need to search the exact product name. How are you supposed to find products without clicking on the dedicated category and endlessly scrolling to find products?
- product names have to be exact, and when you search a brand name, 0 products show up
- it says if the product contains an allergen type but doesn’t tell you what ingredient it is. This prevents you from better informing yourself of the ingredients that may trigger reactions.
- there is no way to turn on and off individual allergies. For example, oat is not a major allergen and I only slightly react, so some products I can be relatively okay with using.
- why doesn’t it scrape the internet for:
1. products that are international and domestic- I have many allergens and have had luck finding Asian skin care but but it’s never in the system.
2. All products of the same brand: currently there is a data availability issues. 1 color of an eye shadow could be in the system but the same brand, product, but different color is no where to be found.
- many products are found online and often do not have the barcode in the picture. How is it possible to add it to the system if there is no barcode? We should be able to also submit a web link, and data can be imported.
This app is a great resource and has significantly helped my skin. I care about this cause and for this reason I ask for some serious web/app development.

This app is my life saver. I wouldn’t not be able to live without it. My skin is the best it’s ever been because I know what I can and cannot use.
