breakout detector

Breakouts are enough of a puzzle. Your product labels shouldn’t be. Use this tool to decode ingredients and avoid potential acne triggers.

How to use

  1. 1

    Add your ingredients: Paste or type the full ingredient list from the label or website. Separate each ingredient with a comma.

  2. 2

    Run the check: Click “Check” to scan your list. We’ll flag potential pore-clogging ingredients.

  3. 3

    Review your results: Ingredients flagged as potential pore-cloggers will appear in red. If you're prone to breakouts, it's best to avoid products with these ingredients.
