Terms of Use
Last updated: May 1, 2025
Important: Skinwich provides educational skincare information, not medical advice. Nothing on this site should be used as a substitute for professional dermatological or medical consultation.
1. Not Medical Advice
Skinwich provides educational information about skincare ingredients, routines, and active ingredient interactions. Nothing on this site constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendation.
Always consult a qualified dermatologist or healthcare provider for medical skin conditions, prescription treatments, concerns during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or any skin issue requiring clinical assessment. Our tools are educational aids, not substitutes for professional advice.
2. Content Accuracy
We strive for accuracy in all ingredient data, comedogenic ratings, pregnancy safety information, and interaction guidance, drawing from published dermatological and clinical research.
However, formulations change, new research emerges, and individual skin responses vary significantly. Comedogenic ratings are based on published scales (including the Kligman scale) but real-world comedogenicity depends on concentration, formulation, and individual skin type. Use this information as guidance, not as definitive clinical authority.
We publish corrections. If you believe any information on Skinwich is inaccurate, please contact us and we will investigate and update as needed.
3. Affiliate Disclosure
Skinwich participates in affiliate programmes including Amazon Associates and others. Product links on this site may be affiliate links — if you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate commissions do not influence our ingredient ratings, interaction data, comedogenic scores, or pregnancy safety labels. We only link to products that match the criteria of our diagnostic system or that we would otherwise genuinely recommend. All affiliate relationships are disclosed in accordance with FTC guidelines.
4. Intellectual Property
All content on Skinwich — including journal articles, ingredient descriptions, interaction rules, tool logic, and design — is original work owned by Skinwich.
You are welcome to share links to our content. You may not reproduce, republish, or redistribute our content in full (including journal articles or ingredient data in bulk) without prior written permission. Brief quotations with attribution and a link are acceptable under fair use.
The Skinwich name, logotype, and visual identity may not be used without our written consent.
5. Limitation of Liability
Skinwich is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We make no guarantees about the completeness, accuracy, or fitness for a particular purpose of any information on this site.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Skinwich shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or reliance on its content.
6. Third-Party Links and Services
Skinwich contains links to third-party websites, products, and services. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of those sites. A link does not imply endorsement of the site or its operators.
7. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The last updated date at the top of this page reflects when the terms were last revised. Continued use of Skinwich after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
