Perso: A First-Of-Its-Kind, 3-in-1 Device For Personalized At-Home Skincare And Cosmetics

L’Oréal‘s Perso Smart AI system creates on-demand, personalized formulas for skincare, lipstick, and foundation that optimize over time–incorporating real-time skin assessment, air-quality, pollution data and trend analysis

Developed by the L’Oréal Technology Incubator, Perso’s sleek device, which stands 6.5 inches high and weighs just over one pound, features a streamlined four-step process to deliver on-the-spot skincare and cosmetic formulas that optimize for increasing levels of personalization over time.

With a patented motorized cartridge system, Perso creates personalized skincare formulas in four steps: Personal skin analysis, Environmental assessment, Product preference, Custom formulation and dispensing. Perso’s hardware features a uniquely designed motor system located at the top of the device which moves and compresses the formula from the cartridges at the base of the machine in an upward motion to the dispensing tray above.

This collective data informs the creation of a personalized blend of high-performance skincare, dispensed in a perfectly portioned, single dose at the top of the device for easy, clean application. The technology adjusts for morning and evening application, and the device features a detachable mirrored top so consumers have the option of taking a single or larger dose with them on-the-go.

With regular use, Perso’s AI platform will be able to assess skin conditions over time, letting the user know what is working and will automatically adapt future formulas based on personal results. Perso’s future makeup offerings will have the capability to incorporate real-time trend information as well as color-matching technology into its personalized product offerings. Consumers would be able to design a lipstick shade to match their outfit or to opt for a color that is trending on social media at that moment.

Perso technology builds upon L’Oréal’s years of expertise building innovative, personalized beauty experiences.

Its smart system will be designed to respect consumer privacy, with transparent controls. The development of Perso was informed by the L’Oréal Technology Incubator’s successful launches of award-winning products including the personalized skincare system Custom D.O.S.E by SkinCeuticals, the customized foundation platform Le Teint Particulier by Lancôme, at-home personalized haircolor system Color & Co., and My Skin Track UV by La Roche-Posay, the world’s first battery-free wearable to measure personal UV exposure, which
launched at CES 2018 and was sold exclusively at Apple beginning in November 2018.

Opte Precision Skincare

P&G Ventures, the startup studio within Procter & Gamble, is excited to return to CES 2020 to showcase the development of Opte Precision Skincare System, the first personalized handheld inkjet printer to instantly make the appearance of skin’s hyperpigmentation disappear and fade spots over time. Bringing smart technology to beauty, Opte is creating a new category of at-home precise skincare solutions, set to go to market in Summer 2020. Opte scans, detects, and corrects hyperpigmentation with precision application to reveal the natural beauty of skin.

Opte Precision Skincare System first debuted at CES 2019, where the device received an overwhelming response and four “Best Of” awards. This year, Opte returned to CES with updates. Opte is now 70% less expensive and the smart beauty device can process skin images 30% faster Opte has an improved user interface and upgraded OLED display and is more portable and adds connectivity to assure a better user experience.

The Opte wand scans the skin with an enhanced digital camera that captures 200 frames per second and instantly analyzes each image using a proprietary algorithm to detect tonal imperfections not visible to the human eye. Using input from the algorithm, Opte precisely prints via a new-to-the-world, custom thermal inkjet printer and cartridge, depositing picolitre droplets of Spot Optimizing Serum on target areas until there is a perfect color match with the surrounding skin tone. Correcting in real time, Opte also faces the appearance of sun damage and hyperpigmentation spots over time.
