Flipkart Rolls out Virtual Try-On Feature for Beauty Products
Share Share ShareShare

Flipkart, India’s homegrown e-commerce marketplace, today announced a beauty extension to its augmented reality-led feature on the app – Virtual Try-On. It enables users to virtually try on beauty products such as lipstick, foundation, eye shadow, kajal, eyeliner, compact, concealer, highlighter, blush and mascara from leading brands including Lakmé, Maybelline, Blue Heaven, Faces Canada and L’Oréal Paris. This new update is poised to play a pivotal role in creating unique immersive experiences for customers and helping them make informed purchases. 

The presence of product visualization is an important factor in enhancing a customer’s online shopping experience, especially in the beauty category. Customers can find the ‘Try On’ feature on the product page at the bottom right corner of the image gallery. After enabling the camera and gallery access, users can opt for a ‘Live’ Try-On or by uploading a selfie to see how a product would look on them virtually, as well as save the image to share across other apps.

While testing out the Virtual Try-On experience for Beauty products across a couple of brands as a pilot, Flipkart observed an increase in conversion with consumers who tried on the make-up virtually on the product page in comparison to those who did not.
