02 · The agent
The plan, and why.
Generic apps rank acne first. On deep skin, the dark marks a breakout leaves (PIH) last for months, so Shea weighs them higher, adjusts for Accra's heat and UV, and checks every product against what Ghana's FDA bans.

Start with three
A day with Shea · Ama, 27, Accra
07:10 · the mirror
The spot is gone. The mark isn't.
On deep skin, the dark mark a breakout leaves can stay for months. Ama scans before work, and Shea ranks that mark first, not the acne.
12:40 · the market
Every shelf promises “fair”.
The fastest creams on the stall work by bleaching or thinning skin. Shea names the ingredient, refuses it, and points her to a safe fader instead.
21:30 · the routine
Four steps she'll actually keep.
Light textures for a humid night, a mark fader that doesn't bleach, and a tinted SPF for tomorrow that won't turn her grey.
03 · Try-on
Colour, measured against your skin.
Each piece is ranked by its contrast with your scanned skin colour, how its hue sits with your undertone, and how much colour it carries. Then YouCam's Clothes VTO puts it on.
