INSIGHT: There’s so much choice, confusion and anxiety involved in buying cosmetics, people often stay with what they know. But what would happen if we gave people an entirely new way to try on makeup?

STRATEGY: There are plenty of Makeup apps based on still images but it doesn’t help the consumers to get a real advice, a real simulation. With Makeup Genius:

- Consumers can try out the products they might not otherwise have tested or considered

- It recreates a content and a relationship with the consumer that we have never had in the self-service world

- It drives to purchase directly on the app

IDEA: Create the first app to truly let you try on makeup using nothing but your phone. Makeup Genius scans your face, and allows you to select from a huge range of L’Oréal Paris cosmetics from wherever you are: instantly and totally realistically
