The rise of bots and artificial intelligence has inspired the creation of many smart beauty assistants, but the new YouCam Makeup Beauty Advisor experience unveiled at SXSW suggests that perhaps connecting with a real person is still the most reassuring.
The on-demand YouCam Makeup Beauty Advisor service gives app users the chance to connect with a beauty expert via a real-time video chat. In this highly customized experience, a user is able to receive custom insights, participate in a special training mode and try on a variety of products in augmented reality.
In the same way that a store associate or a representative at a beauty counter would walk one through an experience in-store, the YouCam Makeup Beauty Advisors help consumers shop specific products from YouCam brands in a live one-on-one chat.
