🧩 The Problem: Skincare Confusion Is Real
From overwhelming ingredient lists to influencer-driven product hype, skincare customers often face choice paralysis.

As both a marketer and UX designer, I noticed that many beauty brands (especially indie and DTC) struggle to offer smart, personalized experiences due to tech limitations and cost barriers.

This prototype is my response to that problem — merging UX thinking, basic AI logic, and front-end simplicity.

💡 The Vision: Scalable AI for Beauty Brands
What if any skincare brand — no matter how small — could offer a seamless, intelligent shopping experience that mimics expert advice?

The result is an AI-inspired, lightweight product quiz that doesn't require APIs, heavy infrastructure, or complex integrations — but still delivers value to users.

🚀 Why This Project Is Innovative

  • Applies AI logic in a simple, no-code-friendly way

  • Builds trust with users through tailored product suggestions

🎯 How It Helps Small-Scale Brands Market Themselves
💼 Better Customer Experience = Higher Conversions
By personalizing recommendations, brands can reduce bounce rates and increase product trust — especially important in skincare where results are personal.

📉 Reduces CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost)
Instead of spending on paid ads, brands can improve on-site UX and convert more from existing traffic.

🧰 Plug-and-Play for Lean Teams
This front-end model can be embedded or customized without the need for a backend — ideal for solopreneurs, indie labels, or local cosmetic startups.

📣 Builds Brand Authority
Offering a smart product quiz positions small brands as tech-forward and customer-focused — even if they’re just starting out.
