Why use INCI4ME?
From a label photo to a single-ingredient search, INCI4ME brings reading, comparison and reference tools into one workflow.
🚀 Simplicity and speed
Quickly find information about ingredients, functions and categories from an INCI name or the list shown on the label.
🔍 Transparency
Turn technical names into easier-to-read records and compare available data while keeping the original INCI name visible.
🛡️ Context and awareness
Highlights declarable allergens, warnings and restrictions when they are present in the sources consulted. For allergies, reactions or medical conditions, seek advice from a healthcare professional.
📚 Verifiable information

How it works?
See how INCI4ME helps you read and search cosmetic ingredients by organising available information into a clearer workflow.
Check Function
Paste or type the ingredient list, upload a photo or use the camera on a compatible device. INCI4ME extracts and prepares the names for analysis.
INCI Function
Search a single INCI name in the database and review available information on function, category, sources and regulatory references.
Interpret the result
Read functions, categories, notices and restrictions in context. The presence of one ingredient alone does not determine the safety of the finished product.
What you can explore on INCI4ME
Go directly to the areas that are most useful for reading a cosmetic label and checking the information available.
Cosmetic Regulations
Cosmetic labelling provides consumers with mandatory product information. In the European Union, Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 governs, among other matters, the list of ingredients and other label particulars.
Regulatory references
The label of a cosmetic product must be drafted in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 of the European Parliament and Council.
For products placed on the Italian market, mandatory information must be provided in Italian. Untranslated expressions that have become commonly used (e.g., 'shampoo') are allowed.
Multilingual labels
Multilingual labels can be provided. However, for products destined for the Italian market, certain information must also appear in Italian with character sizes equal to those used for other languages.
Ingredients list (INCI)
The ingredient list is one of the key pieces of information on a cosmetic label. INCI names identify declared substances and make it possible to research their function and context.
The presence of an ingredient alone cannot establish whether a product is suitable for an individual or safe in absolute terms: concentration, formulation, intended use, exposure and individual circumstances also matter. For allergies or reactions, seek healthcare advice.
INCI4ME supports ingredient reading and research. It does not replace the mandatory cosmetic safety assessment, regulatory checks or advice from a healthcare professional.
