“We’re incredibly excited to expand this unique offering to so
many more ships this year, allowing us to strategically leverage AI
to enhance the retail experience for every skincare lover on board.
It’s shopping, but smarter and even more fun!” said Lisa Bauer,
Starboard Group President and CEO. “Our teams have collaborated
closely with Perfect Corp to create a bespoke SkInsight app
experience for Starboard, which underscores our commitment to
innovation, seamlessly weaving engagement into the shopping
experience.”
Beauty Solutions ‘For All,’ Enhanced By Technology
Starboard’s “Beauty for All" campaign empowers individuals to
embrace their unique beauty with high quality products and
solutions that are accessible to all and promote a vibrant and
inclusive world through positive messaging. Through cutting-edge
technology and immersive experiences, Starboard crafted a retail
experience that’s as diverse and dynamic as its guests. SkInsight—a
first-at-sea concept – is at the forefront of this revolution. It
is also part of Starboard’s retailtainment concept which delivers
immersive and engaging events and activations, as well as the
creation of unique and compelling retail environments, digital
experience and ecommerce.
Powered by AI and augmented reality, SkInsight is a
game-changer. In just seconds after snapping a photo, guests
receive personalized skincare recommendations verified by
dermatologists. The tool can address guests’ skincare concerns from
wrinkles, to texture, and dark circles, or simple enhancements for
glowing skin.
SkInsight has become a cornerstone of Starboard’s “Beauty for
All” initiative. Since its launch, the tool has delivered glowing
results. SkInsight has not only increased the sales volume and
guest spending by 20%, but it has also expanded the average
transaction amount by 10%.
Perfect Corp. developed a tailored solution for Starboard Group,
specifically designed to address the challenges of operating at
sea. With offline functionality and no reliance on internet
connectivity, this solution ensures seamless performance in
maritime environments, aligning with the unique operational demands
of onboard retail.
“We are thrilled to partner with Starboard Cruise Lines to
launch the SkInsight AI skin analysis experience at sea. AI-powered
skin analysis has the potential to personalize skincare shopping
like never before, offering tailored solutions for each
individual,” said Perfect Corp. Founder and CEO Alice Chang, “By
bringing this cutting-edge technology to Starboard’s travel retail
environment at sea, we are taking the onboard beauty experience to
new heights, ensuring that guests receive personalized care and
advice while enjoying their journey."
With plans for continued expansion, Starboard's SkInsight
symbolizes more than just a technological innovation— it’s a
revolution in how it engages with beauty and a bold leap into the
future of retail, setting new standards for inclusivity,
personalization, and guest engagement. By seamlessly integrating AI
and AR into the cruise experience, Starboard is transforming beauty
shopping into an immersive, memorable adventure that resonates with
every guest.
