AI-powered skin analysis dashboard

LUMÉ — AI-Powered Beauty Intelligence Platform

Inspiration

Beauty and skincare shopping today is still surprisingly uncertain. Most users struggle to understand what products actually suit their skin, how makeup will look before purchasing, or how to build a personalized routine without expensive consultations.

We wanted to create an experience that feels futuristic, intelligent, and confidence-boosting — something that combines AI, beauty technology, and immersive interaction into a single platform.

LUMÉ was inspired by the idea of bringing professional-grade beauty consultation to everyone through AI-powered personalization and virtual beauty experiences.

By combining Perfect Corp’s beauty intelligence technology with conversational AI, we built an experience where users can upload a selfie, receive personalized skin insights, explore curated skincare routines, and virtually try on beauty looks in real time.

What it does

LUMÉ is an immersive AI beauty platform that provides:

AI-powered skin analysis
Personalized skincare recommendations
Interactive beauty scoring
Virtual makeup try-on experiences
AI beauty advisor chat assistant
Tailored morning & evening skincare routines
Beauty concern analysis and glow recommendations

Users simply upload a selfie, and the platform generates a complete beauty profile within seconds.

Challenges we ran into

One of the biggest challenges was designing an experience that felt both technically impressive and emotionally engaging.

We spent significant time refining:

smooth AI interaction flows
responsive animations
personalized recommendation logic
secure API architecture
immersive onboarding experience

Another major challenge was balancing realism with speed during skin analysis and virtual try-on experiences while maintaining a polished UX suitable for live demos.

We also had to carefully structure backend API handling to securely integrate AI services and sponsor technologies without exposing sensitive credentials.
