Your beauty stash, organized. Vani is the simplest way to inventory every product you own (skincare, makeup, fragrance, haircare, and nail care) in one place. Know what's expiring, what you're actually using, what fits your skin, and what's just taking up shelf space. ——— KNOW WHAT'S IN YOUR PRODUCTS Ingredient analysis matched to your skin. Set your skin type and concerns once, and Vani gives every product a clear verdict: a match score, the ingredients that fit your skin, and the ones worth a second look. No barcodes, no toxicity scare scores: just a plain-language read on what each ingredient actually does, grouped by benefit. Finally understand the label, not just the marketing. ADD PRODUCTS IN SECONDS Snap a photo and let AI do the typing. Vani's AI scan reads your product and fills in the details for you, no more tapping out every name by hand. Building your collection finally feels effortless. BUILD YOUR ROUTINES Set up morning and evening routines from the products you own, or add simple steps like "SPF". Schedule each step daily, on chosen weekdays, or every few days, then check it off with a tap. Each check-off logs a use on that product, so your usage stats stay accurate. ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Your products, photos, lists and routines sync through iCloud, free for everyone. Everything is stored in your private iCloud, so Vani never sees it. EXPIRATION THAT ACTUALLY MAKES SENSE Not every product expires the same way. Vani tracks three modes: PAO (period-after-opening), a printed expiration date, or never-expires. Enter a batch code and Vani automatically decodes the manufacture date, so you know the shelf life before you even open it. Get reminders before anything goes bad. EVERY CATEGORY. ONE APP. Skincare. Makeup. Fragrance. Haircare. Nail care. All five, tracked in one place with the right structure for each. YOUR USAGE, TRACKED. Log each use with a tap. See which products you actually reach for and which have been sitting untouched for months. Know what's earning its shelf space, and what isn't. STAY ORGANIZED, YOUR WAY. Build custom lists like "In My Rotation," "Running Low," or a "Wishlist" for what's next. Mark products as active, finished, or thrown away: the full lifecycle of every item in your collection. ——— • Ingredient analysis with a skin-match verdict for every product • Skin profile (type + concerns) to personalize each result • Plain-language ingredient breakdown grouped by benefit • AI scan to add products in seconds • Expiration reminders before products go bad • Batch code decoding to determine manufacture date • PAO, expiry date, and never-expires tracking • Usage frequency tracking • Custom lists and collections • Product status: active, finished, or thrown away • Morning and evening routines with daily check-offs • Free iCloud sync across all your devices • Free for up to 20 products; upgrade for unlimited Terms of Use: https://stoicadianaa.github.io/vani/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://stoicadianaa.github.io/vani/privacy.html

Which serum did you use the day your skin felt different? Keep your skincare routine, the products you used and your daily skin notes together. Skincare Tracker turns AM and PM checklists into a skin diary you can look back on. Track cosmetic use-by estimates from opened dates and period-after-opening values, alongside what you actually put on your skin. LOG YOUR MORNING AND EVENING CARE Tap each step to record your cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer or sunscreen. Your routine progress and used-product list update as you go. Keep daily steps separate from masks or exfoliants you use as needed, and follow your daily recording streak. MAKE ROOM FOR DIFFERENT ROUTINES Everyday care, sensitive-skin days or a lighter travel routine: save each one with a name that makes sense to you. - Create, duplicate, rename or archive a routine. - Switch between your saved routines. - Reorder steps and link the products you use. - Choose specific weekdays, every other day or an every-N-days schedule. - Share your product shelf while keeping steps and repeat settings separate. - Keep past usage records with the product details recorded at the time. LOOK BACK AT YOUR SKIN DIARY Log breakouts, dryness, oiliness and redness with scores and notes. Keep the day's products beside how your skin felt, so you have your own record to return to. - Review your breakout score on a 30-day chart. - See products introduced around higher-score days as candidates to observe. - Tap a calendar date to revisit AM and PM products and skin notes. - Edit the skin condition or routine log for a selected day. REMEMBER WHEN YOU OPENED IT An opened bottle is easy to lose track of. Organize your cosmetics in one product shelf and save the dates while you remember them. - Record opened dates and period-after-opening (PAO) values. - See estimated days left based on the information you enter. - Spot products nearing or past their calculated use-by date. START WITH TODAY Add your current products, connect them to your routine and check off what you used. Add a short skin note. Your diary grows one day at a time. Your diary entries are stored on your device and can be used offline. Skincare Tracker does not diagnose skin conditions or determine the cause of breakouts. Products to watch are timing-based references. Use-by estimates are calculated from your entered opened date and PAO; check the product's own guidance as well. Make today's skincare something you can remember.
