About The Alkimists
Know what's really inside.
The Alkimists helps you understand what goes into the products you use every day. We turn dense ingredient lists into clear, AI-driven answers, informed by public sources like the FDA, CIR, Korean MFDS, and peer-reviewed research, so you can decide what belongs on your skin.
Educate, so the industry has to keep up
Our goal is to help people become more aware of the products and ingredients they use on a daily basis. When consumers understand what they are putting on their skin, cosmetic and product companies have every reason to be more cautious and more transparent about what they make. Awareness is the quiet pressure that moves an entire industry toward doing better.
A world where the label is optional
We want to live in a world where companies are transparent about the ingredients they use, so that consumers no longer need to read the label. Clarity should be the default, not something you have to dig for. Until that day arrives, we do the reading for you.
N°01
Clarity
Plain answers, never chemistry homework.
N°02
Evidence
Backed by research and regulators, not marketing.
N°03
Transparency
What we know, and what we do not, stated openly.
Three steps to an honest answer
Search or scan
Type a product name or photograph its ingredient label. Our AI reads INCI lists the way a chemist would.
Cross-reference
Our AI analyzes every ingredient and grounds each verdict in public sources like the FDA, CIR, MFDS, and peer-reviewed research.
Build your routine
Save products, track what you use morning and night, and get flagged when something in your routine deserves a second look.
