Point your camera at any makeup or skincare product and find out exactly
what it is: the brand, the shade, what's actually inside it, and what it
should cost.
Makeup Scanner is an AI cosmetic scanner and ingredient checker that
identifies beauty products from a single photo. No barcode needed, so it
still works on unboxed testers, travel sizes, gifts, discontinued shades,
and imported products where a barcode scanner just gives up.
WHAT THE SCAN TELLS YOU
Take one photo and the AI makeup identifier reads the product back to you:
• Brand, product name, and product line
• Shade name and shade code
• Product type, finish, and coverage
• Size, volume, and country of origin
• A confidence score, so you know how sure the result is
WHAT'S IN IT: INGREDIENT CHECKER
This is where most beauty products stay quiet. The built-in cosmetic
ingredient checker breaks the formula down in plain language:
• Key active ingredients, named and explained
• The visible INCI list, transcribed from the label
• Comedogenic risk, if the formula is likely to clog pores
• Safety flags worth a second look
• Which skin types the product actually suits
• Certifications like vegan, cruelty-free, and dermatologist-tested
ALLERGEN CHECK
If you react to fragrance, nickel, lanolin, or common preservatives, this
is the part you'll use most. The allergen scanner flags likely allergens
found in the formula, rates each one low, moderate, or high concern, tells
you where it comes from, and lists what the product is free from.
It's guidance, not a medical opinion. Always patch test, and read the
physical label if you have a diagnosed allergy.
PRICE AND VALUE
Get an estimated retail price range for the product, plus the basis for
that estimate. Useful when you're comparing dupes, checking whether a
resale listing is fair, or working out if the full size is worth it.
HOW TO USE IT, AND WHAT ELSE TO TRY
Every scan comes with application tips, what the product is best for,
where it's usually sold, similar products worth considering, and a few
genuinely interesting facts about the formula or the brand.
YOUR COLLECTION
Save the products you care about and keep them in one place:
• A running total of what your collection is worth
• Full scan history, dated, so you can go back to anything
• Tap any saved product to reopen the full breakdown
Handy as a makeup organizer when you're standing in a shop trying to
remember whether you already own that shade.
BUILT THE WAY YOU'D WANT IT
• Dark mode
• Scan from the camera or straight from your gallery
• Shutter sound you can switch off
• Seven languages: English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German,
and Arabic, with full right-to-left support
WHO IT'S FOR
Makeup lovers comparing dupes. Skincare readers who check every INCI list.
Anyone with sensitive skin or a fragrance allergy. Collectors keeping track
of a growing stash. Resellers pricing a lot. And anyone who has ever found
an unlabelled tube in a drawer and wondered what on earth it was.
BEING STRAIGHT WITH YOU
A photo can't show everything. Formulas get reformulated, labels differ by
region, and the ingredient list on the back is always the final word. So
this app gives ranges instead of fake-precise numbers, shows you how
confident it is in every result, and tells you when a product deserves a
closer look in person.
