Your skin has a score.
You’ve just never seen it.

step one · the scan
Six signals. One honest number.
Mirrors flatter. Filters lie. A scan doesn’t. noova reads the six signals of skin health and turns them into scores you can watch move, week over week.

under the hood
Why a camera can score skin — and why you can trust the number.
Built on research, not trends
The scoring model is grounded in 100+ peer-reviewed dermatology and cosmetic-science papers — the literature clinicians actually read, distilled into something your front camera can use. No influencer folklore in the loop.
Your face, read zone by zone
A scan isn’t one photo of one surface. Your face is mapped into regions — forehead, T-zone, cheeks, jaw — and each signal is read where it shows up. Oil doesn’t behave the same on your chin and your cheekbone; your score knows that.
Calibrated, so 62 means something
Raw readings are normalized against published reference ranges before they become a score, so the number is anchored to the dermatology literature rather than a vibe. And when the light or the photo isn’t good enough to trust, noova says so instead of handing you a confident number.
Formulas, decoded like a formulator would
Product grades come from reading the ingredient list the way a cosmetic chemist does — which actives are in there, how high up the list they sit, known irritants, comedogenic load — then weighing every one of them against what your scan says your skin needs.
Most apps say “backed by science.” Almost none show the list.

Then it grades your products. Ruthlessly.
Most shelves carry products that do nothing for the skin they sit next to — and a few that quietly work against it. noova cross-references every formula with your scan and puts a number on it: the % it will actually help you. Before you buy the next one.

questions
Asked, answered.
What is noova?
noova is an AI beauty agent. It scans your face in about 12 seconds, scores six signals of skin health (hydration, clarity, texture, oil balance, redness, pigment), and then grades every cosmetic product on your shelf by the percentage it is likely to help your specific skin.
How does the skin score work?
A short front-camera scan maps your face into zones and estimates six skin signals — hydration, clarity, texture, oil balance, redness, and pigment — using a model grounded in more than 100 peer-reviewed dermatology and cosmetic-science research papers. Each signal is calibrated to a 0–100 score against published reference ranges, and together they form one overall Skin Score you can track over time to see whether your routine is actually working. A camera reads the appearance of your skin, not a lab measurement — so noova flags a poor-quality capture rather than pretending a bad photo is a real change.
How does noova score my skincare products?
noova decodes a product’s ingredient list the way a cosmetic chemist would — which actives are present, how high up the list they sit, known irritants, comedogenic load — and cross-references it against your scan results to output a match percentage: how much that product is likely to help your skin specifically. The percentage reflects published evidence for those ingredients against your weakest signals, not a guaranteed personal result. A high match earns shelf space; a low match tells you what to stop buying.
How do I join the waitlist?
Answer three quick questions about your skin and leave your phone number — it takes about thirty seconds. You get one text message when noova opens your spot.
Will noova spam or share my phone number?
No. Your number is used for exactly one launch text. It is never used for marketing, never shared with anyone, and deleted on request.
