Frequently asked

Are these dermatologist-approved?

Most picks from major Indian D2C lines (Minimalist, Plum, The Derma Co, Mamaearth) are formulated with dermatologist input. Always patch-test. We are not a medical service.

What if I have sensitive skin?

Filter for our "Sensitive starter" guide. We default to fragrance-free, alcohol-free picks and flag when an active needs gradual introduction.

Do these work in Indian humidity?

We weight gel/water-based and non-comedogenic formulas heavily for monsoon and coastal regions. Heavy creams get pushed to winter and dry-skin guides only.
