Client
Boca Rosa is a new beauty brand founded by Bianca Andrade – a popular Brazilian influencer, actress, and businesswoman. As the cosmetics industry is highly competitive, Boca Rosa needed all the advantages it could to make an impression on the customers. So the founder decided to integrate virtual try-on (VTO) for the improved user experience and wow-effect. TINT virtual try-on solution was the most fitting platform for that.
Solution
Boca Rosa intended to hold a pre-launch event to showcase their products, receive user feedback, and start getting ROI. It was hosted by Ms. Andrade herself and included cosmetics demonstrations, educational materials, make-up artists presence, and more. For starters, the brand had only a limited product line:
- Foundation stick
- Powder
- Multipurpose sticks (blush/eyeshadow/lipstick)
However, all of them had a virtual try-on feature provided by TINT.
TINT offers realistic products in many categories as well:
These items can be tried on separately or as a complete look. Moreover, TINT includes an advanced recommendations AI, suggesting specific items that will complement the appearance of each individual.
