Not a medical device
Skinbar is a lifestyle / cosmetic web application. It is not a medical device under South African or other regulatory frameworks we claim. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or skin condition.
What the three words are
Light, evenness and warmth describe properties of pixels in a frame you capture on this device. They are influenced heavily by lighting, camera white balance, makeup, recent exercise, and product sheen. They are not clinical scores, Fitzpatrick grades, melanoma screens or barrier function tests.
When to seek care
Speak to a qualified clinician for pain, infection signs, rapidly changing moles, vision changes, severe allergic reactions, wounds that will not heal, or any concern that worries you. Do not wait for a face scan to “confirm” urgency.
Guides are educational
Long-form guides on routines, SPF context and journaling are general information for a South African audience. They are not personalised medical advice. Product mentions and affiliate links are not prescriptions. Always read labels and follow clinician instructions after procedures.
Limitation
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Skinbar and its operators are not liable for decisions you make based on cosmetic readings or guide text. If these terms conflict with mandatory consumer protections that cannot be waived, those protections prevail.
