At Kungul, we believe in transparency and informed decisions. Our goal is to help you navigate product ingredients across cosmetics, food, and household goods to ensure a healthier lifestyle.
Kungul was born from a deeply personal journey. When Erblina Shehu, a mother determined to help her son with his skin issues, started reading ingredient labels, she was shocked. Many products marketed as “clean” or “natural” were full of harmful chemicals. The more she researched, the more she realized how widespread greenwashing was, brands were hiding behind clever marketing while consumers, like her, unknowingly trusted them.
She shared her discoveries with her close friend, Dr. Entela Çeliku, a chemist with a PhD in natural product chemistry. Entela had always believed in certifications and trusted brands that claimed to be safe. But as they dug deeper together, they realized how much misinformation existed in the beauty and personal care industry.
Determined to bring real transparency and help others make truly informed choices, they combined Erblina’s personal journey and relentless research with Entela’s scientific expertise to create Kungul, a platform that empowers people to shop smarter, avoid harmful ingredients, and choose products that genuinely support their health.
Because everyone deserves the truth about what they’re putting on their skin.
Promoting safe, gentle products inspired by nature.
Encouraging eco-friendly and ethically sourced choices.
Clear, honest info about what’s inside every product.
Helping people make smart, healthy decisions with ease.
At Kungul, we stand for honesty, health, and harmony with nature. We believe everyone deserves safe products, clear information, and a cleaner world.
Led by our CEO and Co-founder, Kungul brings together a PhD Chemist, an AI Specialist, and a dedicated team of designers, developers, and sustainability advocates, all working to make healthy, transparent living accessible to everyone.
Kungul was born from Erblina’s journey as a mother searching for safe products for her son, who has atopic skin. Shocked by how many “clean” labels hid harmful ingredients, she began researching and uncovered the widespread problem of greenwashing in personal care.
With a background in quality and project management, she combined her expertise with a passion for wellness and sustainability to create Kungul—a platform that empowers people to make safer, informed choices.
Erblina is also the founder of Soma Light Therapy, a unique experience that blends light and sound for deep relaxation. A spiritual soul and music lover, she believes true wellness means caring for both the body and mind. Through Kungul, she aims to make safe, conscious living accessible to everyone.
For Dr. Entela Çeliku, science and nature are inseparable. With a PhD in Natural Product Chemistry, she has dedicated her career to exploring both plant-based and microbial compounds, focusing on discovering new bioactive molecules with potential applications in health, skincare, and sustainability. As a Fulbright Scholar at Harvard University and a visiting researcher across Europe, she has collaborated with leading scientists, always driven by curiosity and a commitment to innovation.
Beyond the lab, Entela finds joy in gardening, cooking, and being surrounded by nature. Her deep connection to plants and their chemistry has earned her the nickname “the flower girl”, a reflection of both her spirit and her belief that nature still holds many untapped secrets.
At Kungul, she applies her scientific expertise to bring true transparency to personal care, ensuring that every product assessment is backed by rigorous research and integrity. For Entela, chemistry is not just a field of study, it’s a lifelong pursuit of discovery, with the goal of making everyday products safer and better for everyone.
Kungul is more than an app, it’s a movement for a healthier planet and fairer world. Through partnerships with environmental and social initiatives, we support reforestation, ethical sourcing, and community well-being with every scan.
For every 1,000 scans in the app, Kungul supports reforestation projects by funding the planting of native trees in biodiversity-rich areas. Healthier skin, healthier planet.
We partner with fair trade cooperatives to highlight and support products made with ethically sourced ingredients, because beauty should never come at the cost of human rights.
A portion of Kungul’s yearly profits goes to non-profits working on clean water, sustainable farming, and ingredient education. Our mission extends beyond the screen, into real-world change.
Just point your camera at a product barcode, Kungul will do the rest. Fast, simple, and always free.
