How do I read an ingredients list?
Head to the ingredients guide page for detailed information! TLDR: the ingredients are listed by descending order of weight and follow INCI nomenclature. they are super useful for when you want to find a specific sensitizing/helpful ingredient or for fun!
What are your sources?
Read more about our inspirations in the about us tab! But our main source/inspiration is incidecoder.com. They have more ingredients available but the language may be more complicated for the average reader. We also look to scientific journals and peer-reviewed studies for information about ingredients. We try to find the most accurate sources, and if you think anything is incorrect please DM our instagram or email us! All image credit either go to Google or to their respective cosmetic brands. Section 107 of the Copyright act "identifies certain types of uses —such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research — as examples of activities that may qualify as fair use" (meaning we don't need permission to use the photos). The Flawless Truth uses these images for teaching/commentary and not for profit!
