Scan barcodes, track usage, and never let a product expire. Stashly is the beauty tracker built for makeup lovers and skincare enthusiasts who want to actually use their collection — not just own it. YOUR ENTIRE COLLECTION IN ONE PLACE Add any product in seconds: scan its barcode for instant details, search by brand or name, or enter everything manually. From foundations to fragrances, mascaras to moisturisers — your whole beauty inventory, organised beautifully. EXPIRY & PAO TRACKING Set the Period After Opening for any product and Stashly calculates its exact expiry date automatically. See all upcoming expiries at a glance and receive notifications before things go bad. Finally, a reason to check the little jar symbol on your packaging. LOG EVERY USE Tap Log Use whenever you reach for a product. Track how often you use it, calculate your cost-per-use, and discover which products you actually love — and which have been gathering dust. MULTI-SHADE PALETTE SUPPORT Track every individual shade in your palettes separately — each with its own colour, name, and photo. Watch the hit-pan effect appear on shades you've used up, right from your collection grid. LUCKY WHEEL Can't choose what to use today? Spin the Lucky Wheel and let Stashly decide. For palettes, individual shades appear on the wheel — great for actually working through every single pan in your collection. PROJECT PAN CHALLENGE Join the #ProjectPAN community directly in the app. Set a personal goal — 10 Pan, 20 Pan, 50 Pan or 100 Pan — and track every product and shade you finish. See your progress ring grow, spot neglected products, and celebrate hitting pan.

GlamShelf is a private catalog for the makeup you actually own: every product with its brand, category, shade, photo, and the one number most shelves ignore, its period after opening. The PAO clock is the heart of it. Set the day you opened each product and GlamShelf counts down the months printed on its packaging, from a six month mascara to a two year powder. The shelf sorts by urgency, an expiring-soon card surfaces what needs attention, and optional nudges warn you 7, 14, or 30 days before a formula turns. A built-in PAO guide explains, category by category and in plain words, how long each kind of product really keeps and what going bad looks like. The look journal remembers the good faces. Save a look with its photo, the occasion, and the exact products that built it, tagged straight off your shelf. Mark the keepers worth repeating and they float to the top when you need them again. Product links survive retirement: when a tagged product is later finished, the look keeps its name. When a product runs out, the exit interview takes five seconds: finished or decluttered, would you buy it again, one honest note. The empties log becomes the memory your next haul consults, with months in use for every finish. The repurchase list gathers flagged favorites and the empties that earned a second bottle; the declutter list queues what should leave, and a Let It Go flow moves it out with its story kept. Stats turn the shelf into answers: products by category, shelf value by brand from your own prices, the expiry mix at a glance, empties per month, your would-repurchase rate, and the hardest working products ranked by how many looks they built. WHAT YOU GET - Product shelf with open dates, PAO countdowns, and status chips - Expiring-soon nudges: an attention card plus optional notifications - Look journal with photos, occasions, and tagged products - Repurchase and declutter lists with got-it and let-it-go flows - Empties log with verdicts and months in use - Shelf stats by brand and category with charts - Built-in PAO guide for 16 product categories, in plain words - Shelf Report PDF and CSV export - Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud FREE AND LIFETIME Free covers a real start: 20 products, 10 looks, the nudges, both lists, the empties log, the stats, and the full PAO guide. Lifetime is a single purchase that unlocks unlimited products and looks plus the Shelf Report PDF and CSV export, forever. No subscription. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account of ours and no tracking. Your shelf lives on your device and in your private iCloud, which we cannot read. Settings has a Delete All My Data control that erases everything from your device and your iCloud. PRICING GlamShelf Pro is a one time Lifetime purchase of $12.99 USD. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
