Empowering Sustainable Skincare & Beauty ecisions

In the Indigo Award–winning project Vega, my team and I designed a dual-component solution, a portable skin scanner paired with an integrated app, that empowers young adults to make informed, personalized skincare decisions. By combining product design, UX research, and service design methods, the system helps users move beyond influencer-driven recommendations and towards healthier, more sustainable routines.
