Google has unveiled a brand-new augmented reality (AR) shopping feature that should make it simpler to locate the perfect foundation fit. According to the company, the 148 models in its new photo collection reflect a wide range of skin tones, ages, genders, facial shapes, nationalities, and skin types. As a result, it should be simpler for customers to imagine how various products will seem on them.
“This is how it goes: Find a foundation shade on Google and compare pricing and brands, such as “Armani Luminous Silk Foundation,” according to a blog post from Google. You may choose the foundation that works best for you by seeing how it looks on models with skin tones similar to your own, including before and after photos. Once you’ve found the one you like, just select a retailer to buy.”
The feature will be compatible with more brands in the future, Google says.
