Rose Inc — 
Systemic Confidence

Building a visual-first ecosystem that turns beauty browsers into confident buyers.

Rose Inc. is a high-growth beauty brand where "Selection Paralysis" was the biggest hurdle to sales. I set the strategy and KPIs to rebuild the core funnel, swapping confusing shade names for a visual, connected journey. By digging into return rates and support tickets, I turned a frustrating checkout process into a guided experience that actually makes users feel confident in their choice.

The Problem

The "Naming" Gap

In beauty e-commerce, arbitrary shade names (e.g., "31N") fail to translate to real-world skin tones, resulting in "Choice Anxiety" without physical testing


The Challenge

Confusing Labels
Non-intuitive naming systems caused immediate user hesitation.
Visual Overload
Customers struggled to differentiate between similar carousel  
images and map them to their own reflection.
Disconnected Support
While the Shade Finder was available in the nav, it wasn't integrated
into the shop flow. This forced users to step away from the product 
to find their match right when they were ready to choose.
Identification Fatigue
Users had to work too hard to visualize the product on themselves.
Without a clear bridge between the screen and their skin, they often
dropped off instead of risking a bad purchase.

UX Strategy

The Personalization Logic

I replaced the "page-by-page" approach with a connected confidence system, 
removing "mental math" by anchoring the user with visual validation at every funnel stage.

Module 01

The Multi-View
Product Page 

[Fix]
I introduced three distinct discovery mental models: Categorized by Skin Tone, an Expanded Grid, and a Standard Dropdown to cater to different user shopping behaviors.

[Design]
Focused on hierarchy restructure; prioritized visual context by placing an in-depth shade chart and Shade Finder CTA directly within the selection module.

The Personalized 
Results Experience

[Fix]
Overhauled the diagnostic questionnaire to create a personalized education hub, replacing abstract numbers with dynamic model imagery and complexion-matched "Before & After" sliders.

[Design]
Integrated a tailored "How-To" system to demonstrate product synergy (e.g., Foundation + Concealer), educating users on application while driving strategic cross-sell opportunities.

then have a woman taking a photo though the ai tool.
then land on the results page and have it transform to the desktop version and go down that page.

Module 02

The "Certainty" Cart

[Fix]
I transitioned the cart from a simple list to a Transparency Hub. By carrying high-fidelity shade imagery (not just names) into the cart, we provided a final visual anchor to reinforce the user's selection before checkout.

[Design]
The redesign focused on Operational Clarity. I implemented high-contrast typography and clear visual anchors for gifting options and real-time shipping costs. By surfacing these details upfront—rather than at the final payment stage—we eliminated the "hidden cost" friction that often leads to cart abandonment.

Final Reflection

This project proved that for a luxury brand, clarity is the ultimate form of accessibility. By treating the purchase funnel as a single, interconnected system of visual reassurances, we transformed confusion into confidence.
