Skincare advice with nothing to sell you
The Skin Adviser exists because we were tired of the same problem you are — every source of skincare advice has a hidden agenda. So we removed the agenda entirely.
Why We Built This
The story behind The Skin Adviser
The problem we kept seeing
Every skincare quiz recommends the brand that made it. Every influencer is paid to recommend what they recommend. Even well-meaning Reddit advice can't account for your specific skin type, tone, sensitivities, and history. There was no way to get genuinely independent, personalised skincare advice without paying £150+ for a private dermatologist.
What we decided to do about it
We built a consultation service grounded in dermatological science that recommends products from across every brand — not just the ones paying us, because none of them pay us. Our consultation analyses your skin type, tone, concerns, allergies, and what you've tried before, then delivers a complete personalised routine with specific products and scientific reasoning for every recommendation.
How we keep it honest
Our business model is simple: you pay £15 for your consultation. That's it. No affiliate links. No referral codes. No sponsored recommendations. No brand partnerships. No data selling. The £15 consultation fee is our only revenue. That means our only incentive is making your consultation genuinely useful — because if it isn't, we've failed at the only thing we do.
Our Methodology
How your consultation works
We collect detailed information about your skin — type, tone, concerns, sensitivities, allergies, routine history, budget, and lifestyle. Then we generate personalised follow-up questions based on what you've shared, because a proper consultation listens before it advises. Your responses are analysed against current dermatological research to produce a tailored consultation: a detailed skin analysis, complete AM and PM routines with specific product recommendations, alternatives, ingredient guidance, and a realistic timeline for results.
Every product recommendation draws from a verified database of over 11,000 products across 607 brands, with current UK pricing and availability. We cite the evidence behind our recommendations so you can verify everything yourself.

Important
What we're not
We're not a replacement for a dermatologist. If you have a medical skin condition — persistent acne, eczema flare-ups, suspicious moles, or anything that concerns you — please see a doctor. We always recommend consulting a dermatologist for medical conditions.
What we do is help you build an evidence-based, personalised skincare routine using the best available science. Think of us as the bridge between free, biased brand quizzes and £250 private consultations.
