A Routine You Can Actually Follow — Not a Diagnosis

Open @vustbot and describe four things in one message: your skin type, your main goal, what you already use, and any known sensitivities. You get a step-order AM routine and PM routine back in plain language, in the same chat, on the free tier. It answers as general conversation rather than a fixed questionnaire, so the more specific that first message is, the more usable the routine.

No — and this is the single most important thing on this page. Nothing here, and nothing an AI routine suggestion returns, is dermatological or medical advice. It cannot examine your skin, cannot diagnose a skin condition, and cannot take responsibility for anything more serious than a routine suggestion. For anything concerning — an unusual mole, rapid changes in a spot, pain, swelling, oozing, or signs of infection — see a real dermatologist or doctor, not an AI tool.

No, and that's a common mix-up worth clearing up. @vustPortraitBot GENERATES a styled professional portrait from your selfie — it composes a new image, it does not look at your skin and report back on its condition. That's a fundamentally different capability from a routine advisor, which takes what you describe and returns a sequence of steps, not a picture. If you want a professional headshot from a selfie, Portrait is the tool; if you want a skincare routine, describe your skin in @vustbot.

The handful of questions that actually drive a routine: your skin type (oily, dry, combination, normal, sensitive), your main goal (dullness, texture, oiliness, mild dryness — not a diagnosis, just a stated goal), any products you already use, and any known sensitivities or allergies. From those, a step-order AM routine and PM routine, with the active ingredients relevant to your goal named plainly and in the right sequence.

Access shape, not medical depth. Most skincare-routine apps want an account, a quiz funnel, and often a subscription before you see a routine. The intended VUST shape is Telegram-native: answer a few questions in chat, get the routine back in the same thread — no separate app, no signup wall. It would not out-diagnose a dermatologist or a dedicated skincare app's ingredient database; the wedge is 'answer in chat, no new account,' same as the rest of VUST's tools.

Skip any AI tool, VUST's included, and see a dermatologist or doctor. That applies to anything that sounds like a condition rather than a routine gap: persistent acne that isn't responding to over-the-counter products, a mole that looks unusual or is changing, a rash that won't clear, pain, swelling, oozing, or anything that could be infected. An AI skincare advisor is scoped to 'what order do I apply these products' — it is not, and never will be, a diagnostic tool.
