Scan before you buy β€” in the store or in your cart. DermoShelf reads a skincare product's ingredient list and tells you whether it's worth buying: a clear verdict β€” BUY, CAUTION, SKIP FOR NOW or NOT NEEDED β€” and a Personal Fit Score from 0 to 100. It is not a universal score. The same product can be a BUY for one person and a CAUTION for another, because the answer depends on your skin and on what is already on your shelf. IN STORE - Scan the barcode or photograph the ingredient list and get a verdict in seconds SHOPPING ONLINE - Paste a product link from any online store and DermoShelf pulls the ingredient list for you - Get your verdict before you check out, not after the package arrives - Compare two links side by side when you cannot decide between them CHECKED AGAINST YOU, AND YOUR SHELF - Your skin profile: type, concerns, sensitivities, ingredients you already react to - Your shelf: the products you already own - Conflicts β€” if it clashes with something already in your routine, like retinol against a strong acid, you will know before you pay - Duplicates β€” if a product you already own does the same job, we tell you that instead of selling you a second one - The reasoning, ingredient by ingredient. Every verdict is explained. WHY DERMOSHELF IS DIFFERENT We sell nothing. No brand deals, no affiliate links, no shop. Your shelf comes first. We explain every verdict β€” the reasoning is the product. Your skin profile is stored in the EU and used only to produce your verdicts β€” never sold, never used to train AI. When ingredient data is incomplete, we say so. No fake confidence. Available in English and Turkish. DermoShelf provides cosmetic ingredient information, not medical advice. For skin conditions or reactions, see a dermatologist. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.dermoshelf.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://www.dermoshelf.com/privacy
