AllerNote information
What is AllerNote?
AllerNote is a free, AI-powered cosmetic allergy checker that scans any product against YOUR personal allergens — not generic safety scores.
Apps like Yuka, Think Dirty, and EWG Skin Deep assign the same score to everyone. A product rated "clean" by all apps can still trigger your contact dermatitis because it contains YOUR allergen under an INCI synonym. AllerNote checks every ingredient against your personal profile and returns a personalized Safe, Warning, or Avoid verdict.
HOW IT WORKS
-
Build your allergy profile — Select from 30+ contact allergens (fragrance, MI/MCI, formaldehyde releasers, nickel, parabens, lanolin, etc.), import patch test results via photo, or add custom ingredients. Every allergen is mapped to all INCI synonyms automatically.
-
Scan any product — Camera or paste the INCI list. AI extracts ingredients, translates chemical names to plain English, and checks against your profile including all synonym variants.
-
Get your verdict — Safe, Warning, or Avoid with flagged ingredients highlighted and explained.
