How your face images are handled

The short version: we look, we measure, we forget.

Your photo never leaves the frame it was taken in

A captured or uploaded face image is held in memory for the length of the analysis and discarded the moment results appear. It is not uploaded, cached, or written to your device.

No facial recognition, ever

GlowGuide only measures visible cosmetic characteristics — shine, dryness, tone evenness, texture. It does not build a faceprint, match identities, or estimate age, gender or ethnicity.

Only the numbers are kept

What persists is the small set of values you can see on your profile: skin type, oiliness, sensitivity and your own preferences. They stay in this browser.

Cosmetic guidance, not medical advice

Nothing here diagnoses, treats or rules out a skin condition. If something on your skin changes or worries you, speak to a dermatologist.

Verified vs AI-generated

Ingredient lists come from brand-published INCI data and are labelled as verified. Scores, observations and tips are AI-generated and labelled as such. If an ingredient list isn't available, we say so rather than guessing.
