Question 1

Is SkinLogic sponsored by any K-Beauty brand?

Accepted Answer

No. We take no affiliate commissions and no brand payments. Ingredient entries name mechanisms and limitations rather than products, which is why you'll rarely see a brand name on this site.

Question 2

Where do the quiz explanations come from?

Accepted Answer

Each answer is drawn from peer-reviewed dermatology literature or published clinical consensus, then condensed into two sentences. If evidence is mixed, we say so instead of picking a side.

Question 3

Can a quiz replace seeing a dermatologist?

Accepted Answer

It cannot. The quiz is skincare literacy, not diagnosis. Persistent cystic acne, rosacea flares, eczema and pigment disorders all need an in-person clinician.

Question 4

How many steps should my routine actually have?

Accepted Answer

Three to five for most people: cleanse, hydrate, treat, moisturize, protect. Anything beyond that should earn its place by solving a specific, observable problem.

Question 5

How quickly will you reply to a message?

Accepted Answer

Within two business days. Ingredient correction requests get priority, and we cite the study we used when we update an entry.
