When in doubt, licensed aesthetician Hadiyah Daché — also known as the “Fairy Glow Mother” — said shoppers should type the product into INCIdecoder, an online cosmetics database, to get a full rundown.
I love this site primarily because it’s the opposite of the ones I avoid or hate. It’s clean, organized, supported by research (they include their sources without asking you to trust them blindly), and free of judgment
It lists all of the ingredients and then breaks them down, describing if they’re good for your skin, what it is, exactly, they do and the irritancy qualities of each ingredient.
Better than COSDna for comprehensive ingredients list AND easier to read - in layman's terms too.
