17 conditions you can personalise the scanner for
MCAS · Eczema · Contact dermatitis · Psoriasis · Fragrance sensitivity · Asthma · PCOS · Pregnancy · Fertility / preconception · Fibromyalgia · POTS · Hashimoto's / autoimmune · Migraine · IBS · ADHD / sensory · Hyperthyroidism · Endometriosis
Conditions don't change which ingredients we screen — every product is run against the same 237-rule database. They change which flags are escalated to red severity for you (e.g. fragrance allergens at red for MCAS but amber for the general user).
How it works
-
STEP 1
Scan or paste barcode
Use your phone camera or enter a 13-digit barcode manually. Works on any AU supermarket or pharmacy SKU.
-
STEP 2
See the personalised analysis
Every flagged ingredient gets a severity colour (red / amber / green) and a citation to the underlying study or regulation.
-
STEP 3
Find a cleaner alternative
If a product flags red for your profile, we show same-category alternatives that pass your filters.
Independent. No sponsored placement. No affiliate links on rule output. We don't sell to brands.
Source-cited. Every chemical rule cites the regulatory body or peer-reviewed study behind it (EU SCCS, FDA, ACDS, ESSCA, Lancet/BMJ).
Educational. The scanner is information, not medical advice. Talk to your dermatologist, GP, or specialist for treatment decisions.
