Skincare choices driving you crazy? 🤯
✨🧴 Discover and choose your skincare the smarter way, with Curu. Personalised recommendations, bite-sized product insights, trusted reviews and more - all in a few taps.
Hello, Product Hunt community! 💡✨
I’m Rachael, the founder and creator of Curu. 👋🏻
The idea for Curu struck me during the 2021 COVID lockdowns when I was tired of impulse-buying skincare products (and paying the price for bad choices). 😩
🛍️ Skincare shopping can be a confusing maze with countless options, but only a handful are a perfect fit for your skin.
🤔I knew there had to be a better way…
🚀 That's why I created Curu, a fiercely independent app on a mission to simplify your search for skincare that truly works.
Curu is here to make the skincare hunt effortless and stress-free with:
🧬 Personalized recommendations, on-demand
ℹ️ No-nonsense product information
🌎 Validation wherever you are
📱 Easy access without waiting in lines
🍏🤖 Available on both Apple & Android
💸 All this at absolutely no cost to you! 💸
🤓 Choose smarter skincare
💄 Be your own beauty guru
Curu is crafted for you, by folks who understand the struggle. 🫶🏻
It's still early days, and I need your help to refine Curu and make it even better. 💌
So let's do this together, and shape Curu into the ultimate solution for your skincare choices. 💬✨
Thanks for being here ❤️
@rachaeltls Love the "fiercely independent" bit. Do you earn a commission for products purchased through the app? If so, how do you ensure independent recommendations?
@tylerswartz Thanks for your question Tyler! 🙌🏻
Firstly, Curu does not sell any products through our app. We are purely a recommendation and matchmaking platform. You can think of us as a TripAdvisor, but for skincare - we offer a directory of products and bite-sized insights to help with decisions. 💭
Our product recommendations are based solely on what's right for your skin, not how much commission we get - because we don't get any. This means our recommendations remain entirely unbiased and independent.
At present, our main focus is on perfecting our recommendations and user experience. Future monetisation strategies will not compromise the integrity of our recommendations, and I'm committed to keeping it this way. 😊
@emmaalecrim HI Emma 👋🏻 Thanks for the kind comment, this means so much 🫶🏻 Hope you can join us on this journey, we have lots of exciting improvements coming ✨
