2) Scope and Purpose
Bare Halal™ is an independent cosmetic evaluation platform (app + methodology).
Its purpose is to improve transparency in cosmetic ingredient lists and help users make informed choices through:
- Halal integrity assessment (including checkable cases)
- Darar (harm-risk) badges (health and environmental risk signals)
3) Disclaimers (Important)
Bare Halal provides informational analysis based on declared ingredient lists (INCI), public references, and verification workflows.
Bare Halal:
- does not provide medical advice,
- does not provide legal advice,
- does not issue binding religious rulings (fatwas).
Some cases require additional confirmation (e.g., fragrance composition, alcohol source, animal-derived risk, processing aids). Where relevant, Bare Halal may classify items as Brand-checkable and/or Scholar-checkable.
Users remain responsible for their personal decisions and for seeking professional or scholarly guidance when needed.
Independence & Partnerships Disclosure
Bare Halal may collaborate with brands for transparency purposes (ingredient clarification, sourcing confirmation, certification verification, or formula updates).
If Bare Halal enters into any paid partnership (sponsorship, commercial collaboration, or affiliate arrangement), this will be explicitly disclosed clearly and visibly.
Bare Halal does not sell positive ratings or status upgrades. Evaluations remain independent and follow consistent criteria.
4) Intellectual Property
Bare Halal™, its logo, visual identity, website content, scoring logic, halal statuses, and darar badges are protected by intellectual property laws.

- EU scientific safety opinions (SCCS)
- EU chemicals framework (ECHA / REACH, SVHC and endocrine disruptor references)
