NEW IN THE SCAN RESULT / CLAIM CHECK
What does the pack really promise?
Claim Check looks at the words on the pack alongside the ingredient list and research context. It explains why a claim is Backed, Partly backed, a Marketing term, or worth a Check this. It can spot a “fragrance-free” claim beside Parfum on the list, or raise a question about a stated active percentage.
These are prompts to investigate, not lab measurements or a guarantee of results. Confirm the current pack and translation; treatment-style claims depend on your region.

POPULAR BEAUTY, BEYOND BORDERS
Love the discovery. Understand before you buy.
Trending skincare from Korea, Japan and China is easier to discover than ever, especially when you travel or shop online. A beautiful pack still leaves questions: What does the label say? Which ingredients matter? Could it fit your skin?
Glow brings the original text and English review together, then checks the product against your skin profile. Source-linked regulatory context is being built as coverage grows. Keep the product you love, or explore an ALT with similar key actives.

THE GLOW DIFFERENCE
Great finds have different names.
Once you know the ingredients doing the work, you can compare products on the same key actives instead of relying on packaging or a brand name alone. Glow's ALTS view makes that comparison easier to start.

THE REAL TALK
Good questions, clear answers.
Does Glow work with products bought overseas?
The scanner is designed for products from major beauty markets, including Korean, Japanese and Chinese labels. In the app journey, you can review and correct translated ingredient names before analysis. Coverage and accuracy depend on the label and image quality.
What happens after I scan a product?
You can save it to your product shelf, compare key ingredients and ALTS, look at retailer options and add a product you choose to your routine.
Can I find it in a nearby store?
Nearby store discovery is planned where local retailer coverage and stock information are available. Check live price and availability with the retailer before you travel or buy.
How does Claim Check assess a skincare claim?
It compares the words on the pack with the ingredient list, evidence for relevant skin concerns and available region-specific context. It labels each check Backed, Partly backed, Marketing term or Check this, and explains the reason. Ingredient order is a clue, not a concentration test, and the result is general information rather than legal or medical advice.
Does a scan guarantee a product is safe for me?
No. A scan can miss text or lack a complete ingredient list. Suitability is an estimate, and restrictions vary by country and product type. Check the package and official local advice, especially for allergy or medical questions.
Can I scan a product on this website today?
This website introduces the app experience. You can scan products in the free web beta at app.projectglow.skin.
