Why I built AllerNote
After getting patch tested by a dermatologist, I was handed a list of chemical names and told to "avoid these." But reading cosmetic labels is incredibly difficult. Ingredients are listed in complex INCI nomenclature, and a single allergen can hide behind a dozen different names.
I realized that generic "clean beauty" apps don't work for people with specific contact allergies. A product can be rated 100% safe by a generic app, but if it contains your specific trigger, it's not safe for you.
AllerNote is the tool I wish I had. It doesn't judge products on generic safety scores. It checks every ingredient against your personal allergy profile.
