we decode skincare labels
soon - we’ll write our own
welcome to the zook lab
We're not your typical skincare brand—because we don't sell skincare, we decode it.
At The Zook Lab, we break down ingredient lists, expose the hidden nasties, and
shine a light on what's really going on in your skincare products.
From preservatives with scary names to labels that scream "natural" but aren't actually natural, we're here to make sure you're not falling for the industry BS. If you care about what
goes into your body, it's time to start caring just as much about what goes on it.
We're ingredient nerds and believe that clean skincare starts with clean knowledge—
and we're here to shed a light for you.
why it matters
You wouldn't eat something if you didn't know what it was, right? So why slap it on your face?
Many mainstream skincare products in Australia and around the world contain questionable ingredients like parabens, SLS, and synthetic fragrances. These compounds have been
linked to hormonal disruptions, skin sensitivity, and long-term health issues.
Our goal is to help you:
Build a clean skincare routine with confidence
Spot greenwashing and false claims
Feel empowered to make better choices for your skin, your health, and our planet
