How to check cosmetic ingredients from a photo in 30 seconds (BeautyAI guide)

Every time you buy a new cream or serum, you end up trusting tiny text on the back and brand promises. But “natural”, “hypoallergenic”, and “for sensitive skin” can still hide strong acids, drying alcohols, or irritating fragrance.

BeautyAI is a Telegram bot that reads an INCI list from a photo and explains whether the product is likely to be safe for you — in seconds.

Why it’s worth checking ingredients

• Tiny text + complex names. INCI is often dozens of unfamiliar words. It’s unrealistic to decode it “by eye”.
• Sensitive skin & allergies. One mismatched ingredient can trigger redness, itch, flaking, or breakouts.
• Pregnancy & breastfeeding. Some categories (e.g., retinoids) are commonly avoided in this period.
• Combination risk. Even if each product is “fine” alone, the routine as a whole can overload the barrier.

A quick ingredient check before purchase can save money — and weeks of barrier recovery.

What BeautyAI can do

• Reads INCI from a label photo. Just snap the back of the bottle.
• Detects key actives. Acids, retinoids, niacinamide, vitamin C, etc.
• Assesses safety context. Sensitivity, pregnancy/breastfeeding considerations.
• Flags common irritants. Harsh surfactants, drying alcohols, fragrance.
• Gives a clear verdict. Instead of a long wall of text: “OK”, “use with caution”, or “avoid”.

How it works (step by step)

1. Open the bot in Telegram.
2. Take a photo of the INCI list and send it.
3. Wait ~10–20 seconds.
4. Get a structured answer: actives, key risks, and usage suggestions.

Who it’s especially useful for

• Pregnant/breastfeeding users
• Sensitive/reactive skin
• Acne-prone routines (comedogenicity concerns)
• “Smart buyers” who want to avoid expensive “empty” purchases

Bottom line

If you want to stop guessing whether a product fits your skin and start making decisions based on real INCI — BeautyAI is the fastest way.
