About
Protecting Skin,
One Scan at a Time
VerifySkn is a free tool that helps you verify skincare authenticity before it reaches your skin.
How It Works
01
Scan the Barcode
Point your camera at the EAN-13 or UPC barcode on the packaging, or type it in manually.
02
AI Verification
We check the barcode against our verified product database and apply AI trained on packaging authenticity signals.
03
Get Your Verdict
Receive an instant verdict: Authentic, Unverified, or Suspicious. With a confidence score.
Why It Matters
Counterfeit skincare is a public health risk. Fakes are produced without safety testing, quality controls, or regulatory oversight. The WHO estimates 1 in 10 medical products in low- and middle-income countries is substandard or falsified.
Always buy from authorised retailers and brand-owned stores. When in doubt, scan before you apply.

After moving to a new city, I kept buying the same products that had always worked on my skin. A month passed and nothing changed. I switched vendors and within a week, the results were back. That was the moment I understood what had actually happened: the first batch was fake. Same packaging, same labels, completely different product. I built VerifySkn so no one else has to spend weeks wondering why their skincare stopped working.
