Turn more of your lip-shade browsers into buyers

Shoppers are exploring your lip range, but are not converting into sales. Often, it’s because they’re not sure how it’ll look on them. I set up lip virtual try-on in your Shopify store, so shoppers can preview and compare shades on their own face and choose with confidence.

What shade uncertainty may be costing your brand

Think about choosing a lipstick in a shop. You swipe a tester, check the mirror and see straight away whether the shade suits you. Seeing it on yourself is often what gives you the confidence to choose.

Online, that moment is missing. Your photos and swatches show the product, but not how it looks on the person viewing it. Natural lip colour, skin tone and lighting can all change how a shade appears once it’s on, so even an interested shopper can be left unsure which one to buy.

Shoppers buying elsewhere

If shoppers feel more confident choosing a shade from another brand, they may buy there instead—and you lose a potential sale.

Shoppers putting off the decision

“I’ll come back to it” delays revenue you could have earned now. If they never return, the sale is lost.

A shade that disappoints after purchase

A shade that disappoints can lead to complaints and refund or exchange requests. That means more work for your customer support and a customer who’s less likely to buy from you again.

Why virtual try-on may help

Lip virtual try-on (VTO) lets shoppers digitally preview lip colours on their own face, right from your product page. They can try on your shades from home, quickly and easily, and judge which colour suits them, so they can buy with more confidence.

VTO done properly, without the extra workload

Try-on is simple for shoppers. Getting it there takes careful work, and that's where I come in.

Know if try-on suits you before you commit

Choosing try-on software yourself can mean hours of research and the risk of paying for the wrong option. Having tested providers side by side, I'll tell you honestly whether try-on suits your store and which option is worth your budget.

Keep your team focused on running the business

Learning new software, working through trial and error and fixing setup issues can quietly eat into your team's week. I already know how the setup works, so your team keeps its time for running the business, not learning VTO.

Have someone carry the work through

Even a simple project needs someone to gather information, keep track of feedback and keep things moving, and that usually lands on someone already busy. The project management is on me, so your time goes on the decisions only you can make.

How we'd bring lip try-on to your store

  1. Explore the fit and agree the project

    We start with a free consultation about your lip range, challenges and goals. If try-on looks like a good fit, I’ll send my software recommendation and a proposal. If you’d like to go ahead, we agree the scope and price, and get started.
  2. Review your shades and approve the launch

    I configure your agreed shades for you to review and refine. Then I build and test the experience in your Shopify store, and you see a private preview. It only goes live once you approve it.
  3. Receive support and decide what comes next

    For 90 days after launch, I monitor the experience and provide the agreed support. I then share a report on how shoppers have used it, any customer feedback and shopping activity, with a practical recommendation for your next step.

Who you'll be working with

I buy makeup online, so I know how hard it can be to tell from a photo whether a lip shade will suit me. That's what draws me to this work, helping beauty brands give their shoppers a better way to explore lip colours before they buy.

I studied Business and Management at the University of the West of England, so I see try-on as a commercial decision, not just a new feature. I've tested different VTO providers and worked through shade configuration, store integration, and the shopping journey myself.
