Choosing personal care products should not require guessing what every ingredient means — or relying on a barcode database that may not match the product in your hand.
Avessia helps you understand personal care and cosmetic ingredient labels before you buy.
Most scanner apps start with a barcode. That can be fast, but it depends on a product record being complete, current and correct. If the product is missing, region-specific, reformulated or incorrectly listed, the result may not reflect the actual label in front of you.
Avessia takes a different approach.
It reads the actual ingredient label using advanced server-side OCR, matches the ingredients against a curated database of more than 26,000 personal care and cosmetic ingredients, and produces an evidence-backed product safety score.
The label is the source of truth.
By reading the ingredients printed on the package, Avessia can analyse boutique brands, local products, imported products, new formulations and products that may not exist in a barcode database.

PERSONALISED TO YOUR CONCERNS
Different people care about different things.
Avessia lets you personalise results by selecting areas of concern that matter to you, including fertility and pregnancy-conscious choices, endocrine disruption concerns, sensitive skin, fragrance sensitivity, chemical sensitivity, parent and child-focused choices, environmental concerns and general ingredient transparency.
When matching ingredients are found, Avessia highlights them and adjusts the product score so the report better reflects your priorities.
MORE THAN A SIMPLE SCORE
A basic red, amber or green rating can be useful, but it does not tell the whole story.
Avessia Premium reports allow you to drill into each ingredient to see what it does, why it may have been flagged, how it is typically used, whether restrictions apply, and where the information comes from.
Each ingredient summary is written to be clear, practical and evidence-based — not fear-driven.
BUILT FOR REAL-WORLD SHOPPING
Use Avessia when checking sunscreen, moisturiser, shampoo, cleanser, conditioner, foundation, fragrance, deodorant, baby products and other personal care items.
The extra step of scanning the label is the advantage: Avessia analyses the product you are actually holding, not just a database entry that may or may not be correct.
