What the ingredient does
Beta-alanine is used for efforts lasting roughly one to four minutes. Its intended effect comes from regular intake over weeks, so the tingle after a single scoop does not tell you how that workout will go. The tingling guide explains the sensation, while the ingredient reference shows where beta-alanine appears in the catalog.
If you would rather avoid it, compare the 4 formulas on the beta-alanine-free list. For the smaller overlap that also has no caffeine, see the combined list. In the quiz, saying tingles bother you filters products with recorded beta-alanine out of the recommendations. It does not promise an absence of every possible skin sensation, since the catalog does not record every ingredient.

Which pre-workouts in this catalog have beta-alanine?
9 of the 13 recorded formulas list beta-alanine. The table shows all 9, ordered by caffeine per serving. Check the current label before buying because formulas change.
Can a beta-alanine pre-workout be caffeine-free?
Yes. 2 of the beta-alanine formulas we track have no caffeine: Legion Pulse Caffeine-Free Pre-Workout, Transparent Labs Stim-Free Pre-Workout. Beta-alanine and caffeine are separate ingredients.
Does the tingle mean the pre-workout is working?
No. The tingle is a possible effect of beta-alanine, not a measure of workout performance. Its intended benefit depends on regular use over weeks, not on the feeling after one scoop.
