How it works

A real dermatologist, online, in three steps.

No bots, no quiz-result "diagnoses." A board-certified dermatologist reviews your skin and builds a plan that fits you.

STEP 01

Tell us about your skin

A few questions and photos, whenever it suits you. Five minutes, on your couch.

STEP 02

A dermatologist reviews it

Dr. Eckert — a board-certified dermatologist — actually looks at your case, not an algorithm or a chatbot.

STEP 03

Get your plan

A simple routine, plus a prescription delivered to your door if it'll genuinely help. Often, you'll use less than you do now.

Real conditions, looked at by a real dermatologist.

Why a cat?

Real medical help for your skin. The honest amount of product.

Earl Is My Cat was started by Dr. Auston Eckert, a board-certified dermatologist who got tired of watching people spend a fortune on ten-step routines that didn't work. The idea is simple: actual medical care for your skin, only the products you need, and none of the hype.

Earl — the real cat, the namesake — supervises. Poorly.
