Did you know that a $380 luxury cream often shares 95% of the same ingredients as a $20 pharmacy brand? For my latest hackathon project, I built SkinSavvy to expose this truth. It is a client-side web app that acts as a personal skincare analyzer. Users simply select their skin type (Oily, Dry, Sensitive), and the app scans products to perform two critical checks: it warns if ingredients will cause a reaction, and it instantly suggests cheaper 'dupes' with identical active ingredients.
The Engineering Reality: To ensure a zero-latency demo without the risk of API rate limits, I architected this MVP using a 'No-Code' build with a curated, hardcoded dataset of the market’s top 20 products. This allows the logic—the core ingredient comparison engine—to run instantly in the browser. It’s not a full production app yet, but it’s a functional proof-of-concept that protects both your skin and your wallet. Check out the demo below
