Key Challenges®
//04
Every innovation project brings its own set of complexities, especially when AI, user experience, and emerging technology intersect. In this project, our biggest challenge was to translate intelligent systems into human-centered interactions that felt natural, intuitive, and trustworthy.
AI Trust vs. Sensitivity
Users are sensitive about how their skin is analyzed — especially across acne, aging, or hyperpigmentation.
//01
Visual Complexity
Skin is nuanced — lighting, makeup, camera quality, and ethnicity all impact AI accuracy.
//02
Overwhelming Market
Most users feel lost in skincare. Our job was to simplify, not add to the noise.
//03
Daily Engagement Without Pressure
Encouraging routines without creating guilt or feeling like a to-do list.

Design Approach®
//004
We approached Lüma Skin’s experience as a wellness ritual, not a tech tool.
Skin Diagnostic Flow
We designed a selfie-based analysis with guided lighting instructions and visual feedback cues.
//01
Personalized Routine Builder
Instead of suggesting dozens of products, the AI curated rituals — morning and evening routines with 2–4 recommended products.
//02
Progress Tracking
We introduced a “Skin Timeline” — a visual tracker that shows changes over weeks using color-coded heatmaps and simple metrics: clarity, balance, elasticity.
