BASF introduces Get the Look 2.0 – the new virtual makeover application
Powered by ModiFace, the leading developer in virtual makeup technology, the application allows customers to personalize a makeover by uploading their own photo or choosing a model from the photo library. From there, the user can adjust hair styles, eye makeup, face makeup and anti-aging effects.
“We’re excited to launch Get the Look 2.0, the new virtual makeover application from BASF. Our products will come to life as you play with different options for makeup, hair and skin care ingredients from the Care CreationsTM brand,” said Kate Spetrino, Skin Care Marketing Manager, North America.
For the utmost convenience, search for Get the Look 2.0 through Innovadex® and immediately click on the formulations you see in the virtual makeover. “Our results show that in the month of July, customers tried more than 1540 products while using the application,” Spetrino continued.
Get the Look 2.0 can be accessed through Innovadex®, a search engine for the life science, chemical and food and beverage industries. The site gives direct access to all the formulations and products available on Get the Look 2.0.
