Skin history

Build a history you can return to.

A timeline is a sequence. A history is what it adds up to, months of it, held together.

Timeline

One thing, then another. The order things happened in, entry by entry.

History

Months of them, held together, so that any date can be looked back on.

Look back

Pick a day. See the thirty before it.

The reconstruction view lays out what was on your shelf and what changed in the thirty days before a date you choose.

Made-up entries, run in your browser only. Like the app, this lays out the sequence and never says what caused anything.

What it does, and doesn't

A view that stays honest.

It lays things out in order.

What was active on the day, and what changed in the window before it. That is all it claims to know.

It tells you when it is hard to read.

When three or more changes overlap, the view says so instead of picking one. Being honest about a muddle is worth more than a tidy guess.

It never names a cause.

Sequence is not cause. The view carries the same reminder, in the same words as the rest of the app.

It runs the safety check first.

Opening it from a skin response starts with a short yes or no check for urgent symptoms, before anything else is shown.

The Journal tab: dated entries newest first, with Log a change and Note a response buttons at the top.
The check that comes first, unanswered. It plays by itself; tap to take over.
Take it with you

Export, whenever you like.

Your record is yours. Export it from the Profile tab and share it through your phone's usual share sheet: with a doctor, a pharmacist, or just to keep a copy.

No account needed.

  • A file

    Your record in a machine-readable format.

  • A readable timeline

    The same record, in plain order.

Bringing it to someone

A useful thing to hand to a professional.

Nobody expects you to remember six months of skincare. A dated list changes the conversation.

  • What you used, and when

    Every product with the day it started, paused or stopped.

  • What changed around a date

    The reconstruction view for the day that concerns you.

  • What you noticed, in your words

    Including the entries you wrote late, marked as such.

Yours

A history worth keeping is one you control.

  • On your device

    Your record starts on your phone. No account is needed to use it.

  • Your account is optional

    Create one if you want your shelf and changes to follow you to a new phone.

Not a before-and-after. Not a perfect routine. Just a record of what happened.

Your skin has a history. Start keeping it.
