What Peel does

Not a score.
An explanation.

Every flagged ingredient tells you exactly what the concern is, where the data comes from, and what it means. You decide what matters.

🔬
EU Safety Data
Every classification is backed by EFSA and EU regulatory data — not a proprietary algorithm. Verifiable by anyone, anywhere.
☢️
IARC Carcinogen Flags
WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer classifications shown with their group, evidence basis, and dose context.
🧴
Food & Cosmetics
Scan food labels and cosmetic products with equal depth. Most apps focus on one category — Peel covers both seriously.
⚡
Instant Scan
Point your camera at any label and get results in seconds. Barcode scanning, label scanning, and manual ingredient search all supported.
🚫
Your Avoid List
Add specific ingredients to your personal list. Get an instant flag whenever they appear in any product you scan — no account needed.
⚖️
Side-by-Side Compare
Compare two products head-to-head with a clear safety breakdown. See exactly which has the better ingredient profile and why.
Our philosophy

No bias.
Just science.

Most ingredient apps use proprietary scores built on cherry-picked studies, animal data at non-human doses, and fringe research. They alarm you to keep you engaged.

Peel only flags ingredients based on strong scientific consensus — human evidence, EU EFSA regulatory classifications, and IARC carcinogen data. If the consensus says it's safe, Peel says it's safe.

When we do flag something, we tell you exactly why — the classification, the source, and the evidence behind it.

"We show you why something is flagged —
not just that it is."
🔴
Carcinogen
IARC Group 1 or 2A with human or strong animal evidence. Source and group always shown.
🧬
Endocrine Disruptor
EU-identified compounds that interfere with hormonal systems at relevant exposure levels.
⚠️
Allergen
EU-mandated declared allergens with documented adverse reactions in population studies.
🚫
Restricted Substance
Ingredients restricted or banned by EU or FDA with the specific regulation cited.
🌡️
Irritant
Clinically documented skin or respiratory irritants — not anecdotal sensitivity reports.
✅
Safe
No known concerns at normal use levels. We tell you this clearly — not every app does.
