About this app

What's really in your face cream? What's Inside helps you find out. Point your camera at the ingredient list, and the app explains every ingredient: what it's for, whether it's safe, who should avoid it.

Here's what sets it apart from other scanners: we don't hand you one overall "good or bad" grade. INCI Scanner rates a formula by the parameters that actually matter — hydration, anti-aging, sensitive skin, anti-acne. Because a cream that's great for dry skin might be wrong for oily skin. The question isn't just "is it safe," it's "is it right for you."

How it works
Point your camera at the ingredient list — the app reads it on its own, even across several shots, even off curved packaging. No manual typing. Then AI breaks down each ingredient, drawing not only on a neural network but also on public regulatory data from the EU and US.

What you get
• Formula scores by parameter, from 0 to 10
• A plain-language breakdown of every ingredient: purpose and safety
• EU allergens (26 fragrance allergens), photosensitizers, and ingredients to be cautious with during pregnancy
• A clear verdict and a side-by-side comparison of up to three products

More than a scanner
Inside you'll also find an ingredient catalog backed by regulatory data, and "this or that" comparison articles: cream or serum, foam or gel cleanser, hydration or nourishment. We help you choose, not just rate.

All the core features are available right away — no mandatory subscription, no card required.

Beyond cosmetics, What's Inside also analyzes vitamins and supplements, sports nutrition, and pet food.

This app does not replace professional medical advice. Analysis results are for informational purposes only.
