Our approach

BeautyProven exists for one simple reason: skincare labels are full of promises, and you deserve to know which ones are backed by science.

What we do

We explain skincare ingredients in plain English: what they are, what they do for your skin, how to use them, and what to combine them with. We start with the essentials and add new ingredients regularly.

How we research

• We rely on peer-reviewed research and reviews, preferring open-access papers you can read for free.
• Every ingredient page lists its sources with direct links.
• We write everything in our own words and never copy other sites.
• When the evidence is thin, we say so.

Our evidence rating

• Strong: Many controlled human studies over years.
• Good: Consistent human studies, with room for more.
• Emerging: Promising, but early or mostly lab-based research.
