SMART SELF TANNER APP
By: Pinky Arunwattanamongkol- 2022
"This project is a part of UX design innovation challenge at 1819 Innovation hub sponsored by SOL Jergens. The challenge was designing an app interface to help-tanning consumers find the best product that give the natural sun kissed tan result."
Scope: Sep 2021 Project Type: High-fi prototype for a smart selftanner mobile application
Role: UX/UI Designer Tools: Figma, Illustrator
OBJECTIVE
Create a clickable prototype with animations & explain how we came up with our idea & why people would use this app.
PROBLEM
People have a hard time figuring out which self-tanner works best for them & their skin type, along with how to use it correctly.​
USER RESEARCH SUMMARY​
We first wanted to figure out what the main problems were with self-tanning and why people needed help. After reading through the many tanning horror stories, we then incorporated some solutions into our application which allowed users an easier way to understand which self-tanner works best for their skin tone as well as how to apply it correctly and come out radiantly.​
PAIN POINTS
1. Risk centric choice​
Users make a risk based assessment rather than a beauty based approach to product selection.​
2. Capture metric
Write Users need an app that can not only get things done but learn about their individual references and adapt accordingly.​
3. Undertone
Users are confused about their undertone: Both in terms of what undertone actually is and what their undertone is.​
HIGH-FI PROTOTYPE
UNIQUENESS FEATURES
CAMERA AND SMART AI
The app uses camera and AI to detect skin tone and undertone match the selected level of tan, it helped finalize type of product and amount of use for a perfect finish look.
