Some product links on Akmata are affiliate links. If you buy something through one of these links, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. This never influences which products our AI recommends.
Akmata participates in affiliate marketing programmes. When you click a product link and make a purchase on a third-party retailer's site, we may receive a commission from that retailer. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
Akmata may participate in programmes including Amazon Associates and other cosmetics retail affiliate networks. Affiliate relationships may change over time as the platform grows.
Affiliate commissions allow us to keep Akmata's core skin analysis and routine generation free to use. They are how we sustain the platform without charging users upfront for every analysis.
