Japanese skincare brand SK-II brings its ground-breaking smart store concept, Future X to Singapore from December 1, 2018 to January 31, 2019. This is SK-II’s first smart store in Southeast Asia, following successful openings in Tokyo and Shanghai. We already know – and love – what SK-II is all about and are thrilled to bring you what you can expect from the brand’s intriguing “phygital” (physical/digital) Future X Smart Store concept on Orchard Road.

Visit the Future X Smart Store outside Mandarin Gallery from Dec 1, 2018 to Jan 31, 2019 from 10am to 10pm daily.

Create art with facial recognition

Create art with facial recognition

Powered by state-of-the-art technologies including Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) and Facial Recognition, the Future X Smart Store is all about creating personalised experiences for all guests. Transform your own face into art with The Art of You, a large-scale digital wall that reads head, eye and mouth movements as well as facial expressions. Each unique expression correlates to a different colour scheme and any eye blinking triggers energy lines to pass across the screen, creating a custom art piece – based on you.

The future of skincare shopping

The future of skincare shopping

From the get-go, all visitors receive a specially designed bracelet for individual identification as they move through the stations. Start with the SK-II skin scan, which is a reinvention of SK-II’s iconic Magic Ring Skin Analysis. Unlike typical skin analysis and skin scans which require direct facial contact, this A.I. tool gets your skin analysed remotely while sitting in individual booths. An interactive skincare wall unlocks your skin analysis results with a mere read of your face.  After getting a better picture of your skin from the scan, head to the Smart Beauty Bar for a personalised browsing experience where you can browse and learn about SK-II products at your own pace. You can also easily snag products after the session, like the brand’s most-loved Facial Treatment Essence.
