Frequently asked questions
How does Welo check if a product is safe?
Welo cross-references every ingredient against 270+ safety rules and clinical safety databases. Each product gets a personalized safety score based on your age group, skin conditions, and known allergens.
Can Welo scan barcodes and ingredient lists?
Yes! Welo supports three scan modes: barcode scanning (UPC), OCR ingredient list scanning from the product label, and text-based name search. All three modes deliver full ingredient safety analysis.

What product categories does Welo cover?

Can I set up profiles for my kids?
Absolutely. Welo supports 6 age groups from Newborn to Adult, with age-appropriate safety thresholds. You can also add specific skin conditions and allergens for truly personalized recommendations.
What ingredients should I avoid in baby lotion?
Common ingredients to watch for in baby products include phenoxyethanol, fragrance (parfum), parabens, formaldehyde donors, and certain dyes. Welo flags these automatically based on your baby's age group and known sensitivities — you don't need to memorize them.
Is phenoxyethanol safe for babies?
The FDA has warned against phenoxyethanol in cosmetics used on infants. It's a preservative found in many "gentle" baby products. Welo flags phenoxyethanol as a concern for newborns and infants, and suggests safer alternatives.
How do I read a skincare ingredient label?
Ingredients are listed in descending order of concentration. The first 5-6 ingredients make up the bulk of the product. But even trace amounts of allergens or endocrine disruptors can matter — that's why Welo checks every single ingredient, not just the top ones.
Where does Welo get its safety data?
Welo cross-references ingredients against clinical safety databases, published toxicology research, and regulatory guidelines. Combined with 270+ safety rules and age-specific thresholds, it gives you a personalized score — not just a generic number.
Can Welo check household cleaning products too?
Welo covers 92 product categories — including household products, cleaners, and personal care items that your family uses every day. If it has an ingredient list, Welo can check it.
