Perfect Corporation Enhances Skincare with MeLupe
In a significant advancement for skincare technology, Perfect Corporation has unveiled its contribution of AI skin analysis capabilities to the beta version of MeLupe, an innovative skincare platform developed by Mirupe. By leveraging the power of smartphone cameras, users can now enjoy a high-precision skincare diagnosis experience like never before.
What is MeLupe?
MeLupe is an exciting new platform that focuses on skincare, aiming to provide consumers with comprehensive and personalized recommendations. With an extensive database of over 140 skincare products (expected to reach 400 by January 2026), MeLupe utilizes a full-layer artificial skin model to measure gene expression and quantitatively evaluate product functionality based on 14 metrics related to healthy skin. This innovative approach allows users to visualize the differences between products, facilitating informed choices that cater to their unique skin needs.
The platform’s core functionality can be summarized into two key features:
Skin Diagnosis and
Product Recommendations.
Skin Diagnosis
By simply taking a photo of their face with a smartphone camera, users can receive an analysis of 15 different skin concerns. This analysis presents results in an easily digestible format, using numbers and graphs, enabling users to quickly understand their skin condition and identify areas needing attention. This feature democratizes skin health, allowing users to monitor their skin condition effortlessly.
Product Recommendations
Once the skin analysis is complete, the platform converts the 15 identified skin concerns into 14 beauty metrics using MeLupe's unique logic. By comparing this information with a database of functional data for various skincare products, MeLupe offers users tailored product recommendations that best match their skin type and needs.
Perfect Corporation's AI Technology
To empower the skin diagnosis feature of MeLupe, Perfect Corporation provides cutting-edge AI image analysis technology. This sophisticated system enables users to conduct high-precision skin analysis by merely snapping a picture of their skin. Within seconds, users receive insights into 15 common skin issues, including acne, pores, and wrinkles, along with their skin type and age.
This technology boasts the capability to accurately recognize skin conditions across diverse demographics, irrespective of skin type, age, or ethnicity. This level of personalization not only enhances the user experience but also instills confidence in consumers about the recommendations they receive.
A Word from Management
Junshin Isozaki, the head of Perfect Corporation's Japan operations, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration stating, "We are honored to offer a new skincare experience through MeLupe. The AI-based skin diagnostics visualize daily skin changes, providing users an opportunity to reflect on their skin condition. We are committed to utilizing our technology to deliver highly personalized skincare experiences that resonate with consumers.”
