Optional. Skin type decides the routine — tone only helps us flag the risks that matter most, like dark marks, melasma, or sun damage.
Five questions build your routine. The optional ones only refine it — texture, climate and anything you want left out — so skipping costs you nothing.
We ask about sun reaction rather than ethnicity. Heritage can hint at common patterns — melasma, keloid-prone scarring, higher sensitivity — but skin varies enormously within any group. Read how tone and heritage affect skin ↗ (opens in a new tab)Opens in a new tab — your answers here are saved.
