The basics
What is a skin analysis – and what can it actually reveal?
A skin analysis is a structured assessment of your skin's condition. It used to require a therapist with a lamp and loupe. Today an AI-based skin analysis can measure 15 skin metrics in under a minute – right on your phone.
Why guess when you can measure?
Most people choose skincare based on feeling, advertising or a friend's recommendation. The problem is that your skin is unique: the same product can calm one person's skin and irritate another's. Without a baseline it's impossible to know whether what you're doing actually works.
A skin analysis gives you that baseline. Instead of guessing, you get objective values for how your skin is doing right now – and something to compare against a few weeks from now.
What a modern skin analysis measures
Hydration and barrier
How well your skin retains moisture and how strong the barrier is. Low values often show up as tightness, flaking and sensitivity.
Elasticity and skin age
Your skin's firmness compared to your biological age, giving an estimated 'skin age' that's easy to track over time.
Pores and sebum
Pore visibility and oil production across facial zones – the key to understanding combination skin and breakouts.
Redness and evenness
Degree of redness, pigmentation and surface texture. Important for sensitive skin and for tracking inflammation.
Lines and texture
Fine lines and surface smoothness, zone by zone, so you see where your skin needs the most support.
How to do a skin analysis at home
You don't need a clinic. With a free AI skin analysis you take a photo in good light, answer a few questions about your skin and lifestyle, and get a result with 15 metrics, an estimated skin age and a radar chart across 12 facial zones.
What matters isn't a single value but the trend. Run the analysis, follow a simple routine for a few weeks and repeat it. Then you'll see clearly whether your skin is moving in the right direction. Our philosophy is holistic: sleep, diet, stress and movement affect your skin at least as much as the products you use.
