Beauty Tech

  1. Start with the brand purpose, all services should directly support the brand purpose

  2. Build services that answer real consumer pain points

  3. Build services to the highest finish. Leverage the best tech available, an average experience won’t support desirability

  4. Consider the environment of usage: Retail or at home

  5. Get consumer feedback as part of your build process
