If, like us, you prefer to avoid unnecessary chemicals in cosmetics but memorizing a list of harmful substances isn’t exactly your idea of a fun evening, you’re in the right place!

We’ve teamed up with Fundacja Kupuj Odpowiedzialnie, we’ve created a simple tool for quick verification of cosmetic ingredients (INCI). Forget about crash courses in cosmetic chemistry, squinting at micro-fonts, and supporting products that harm coral reefs.

You’ll find more details in the "Instructions" tab.
