Skin By Design
Skincare matched to where your skin is right now.
Your skin is telling you something. It shifts with your surroundings and with whatever your system has been carrying lately. This short quiz helps you find the ritual best matched to your skin today, so your routine feels simple and steady.
This is a language for noticing. It is not a diagnosis, and it belongs alongside your doctors, never instead of them.
About a minute
A short quiz for a quiet minute.
Answer from how your skin has felt this week. There are no right answers, and you can stop at any point.
-
Notice
A few gentle questions about what your skin has been doing lately. Tight, warm, dull, or steady. Whatever is true today.
-
See your match
The quiz suggests one ritual set for where your skin is this month. The steps are already chosen and in order.
-
Begin slowly
Start with a single product or the whole set. Patch test first, and give your skin time to get to know something new.
Reading your skin
Some weeks your skin runs warm. Other weeks it goes flat and quiet.
Your skin is the part of your nervous system you can see. When your system has been carrying a lot, it often shows at the surface first. These five states are one way to name what you notice.
Fight
Chronic activation. The body has been bracing for a long time, holding a line it never gets to put down.
Redness · Heat in the face · Jaw tension · Reactive skin
Flight
Sustained activation. The body keeps mobilizing, and keeps spending down what it had in reserve.
Dryness · Hollowness under the eyes · Skin that looks thinner
Freeze
Shutdown. Circulation and lymph both slow down, and the surface goes quiet along with them.
Dullness · Flatness · Morning puffiness
Fawn
Hypervigilance to everyone else's needs. The body has been managing at its own expense.
Hypersensitivity · Reactivity · Skin with no buffer left
Regulated
Relative ease. There is room for rest here, and something worth protecting.
Steadiness · Room to recover · Something to keep
This is a language for noticing. It is not a diagnosis, and it belongs alongside your doctors, never instead of them.
Where your answers may lead
Three rituals, each one fixed.
The steps are chosen and in order, so you can stop deciding. Pick the set that fits where your skin is this month and let the rest go.

By subtraction
Every ingredient we leave out is one less thing your skin has to answer.
We formulate by taking away first. Whatever the quiz suggests, the product behind it was built the same way, with short ingredient lists and each one there for a reason we can name.
- No synthetic fragranceLeft out on purpose, across the whole line.
- No essential oils in the facial lineEvery face product is essential-oil-free.
- Full INCI on every productSo you can check us before you buy.

Questions
Before you begin.
Is this quiz a diagnosis?
No. This is a language for noticing. It is not a diagnosis, and it belongs alongside your doctors, never instead of them. The quiz helps you choose a skincare ritual and nothing more.
Who is Indiefog made for?
Sensitive, reactive skin, including people living with MCAS, celiac disease, endometriosis, autoimmune conditions, or complex chronic illness. Skin that so often gets dismissed in the beauty industry.
Indiefog products are cosmetics, made to cleanse, soften, and comfort skin. They do not treat, cure, or prevent any condition.
What if my answers don't fit one ritual?
Start smaller. The Discovery Sample Pack lets you try one product at a time for $3, and a single product is a complete beginning. You can take the quiz again whenever your skin shifts.
How should I introduce something new?
We suggest a patch test on the inner forearm before facial use. If you live with MCAS or high sensitivities, give it a full week. Bring in one new product at a time, so you always know what your skin is responding to.
How long until I notice a difference?
Many people find the textures feel comfortable from the first use. How soft and comfortable your skin feels builds gently over a few weeks of steady, low-effort use.
Begin with what your skin is already telling you.
A minute of noticing, then one suggestion to start from. Go at whatever pace your skin asks for.
