- Tailored technologies, Tonework and Cosmechip, receive the CES 2023 
Innovation Award

Tonework and Cosmechip, tailored technologies developed by Amorepacific, were 
awarded the Innovation Award at the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 (CES 2023), 
the world's largest appliance and technology exhibition. This marks the fourth 
consecutive year for Amorepacific to receive the CES Innovation Award.

The Authentic Color Master by Tonework, which received the CES 2023 Innovation 
Award in the Robotics category, is a smart manufacturing system solution for 
customized makeup products using AI and robot arms. Tonework precisely analyzes 
the tone of the face on the basis of AI algorithms and then uses robotics to 
make tailored liquid and Cushion foundations as well as lip products. The 
device provides optimized color recommendations based on facial recognition 
technology and color science research. The key technologies featured in 
Tonework are available for demonstration through Base Picker at Amorepacific 
Headquarters and Amore Seongsu, Bespoke Neo at the Laneige showroom in 
Myeongdong, and through the Foundation Factory at Etude store in Sinchon, South 
Korea.

The Cosmechip, which received the CES 2023 Innovation Award in the Home 
Appliance category, is designed to make personalized skincare products by using 
active chips containing effective ingredients. Featuring microfluidic channel 
technology developed by Amorepacific, the device creates uniformly combined 
formulations using a small amount of water and effective ingredients. Consumers 
can choose different active chips based on their skin condition and preference. 
For added convenience, consumers can use drinking water at home to make 
customized products. The chips can be stored stably for a long period of time 
because they are prescribed with anhydrous ingredients.

Park Youngho, the Head of Amorepacific R&I Center said, "Being the recipient of 
the CES Innovation Award for four years in a row is the outcome of the 
persistent R&D efforts that go into developing tailored technologies for our 
customers. We will continue to devote ourselves to offering our global 
customers the best and the most products."

List of Amorepacific's technologies that received the Innovation Award at CES 
2020-2022

CES 2020

1) Tailored Facial Mask Pack 3D Printing System
This system was developed to address the drawbacks of existing facial masks 
that fail to take into account different face sizes, the location of features, 
the skin color and the flaws of each individual's skin. Amorepacific 
collaborated with Linc Solution in 2017 to develop a customized facial 
mask-manufacturing device using 3D printing technology. The 3D-printed facial 
mask technology developed exclusively by Amorepacific takes photos of the 
user's face to analyze the location and area of different features, such as the 
eyes, nose, mouth, forehead, cheeks, and the chin, and designs a 2D mask 
pattern accordingly. The data are analyzed to combine hydrogels containing 
functional ingredients that are suitable for the skin condition, after which a 
facial mask is printed in real time through a high-speed 3D printer.

CES 2021

1) Lip Factory by Color Tailor Smart Factory System
The Lip Factory by Color Tailor features both on- and offline-linked AI 
technology to make lip makeup products on the spot, based on its personalized 
lip color recommendations that take into account the user's skin tone. This 
easily controllable system, equipped with a 2,000-color palette, features 
advanced technology to precisely combine and manage various color pigments in 
order to manufacture customized lip products.

2) Formularity - Instant Active Toner Blending Device
The Formularity, developed by Amorepacific, won the CES 2021 Innovation Award 
in the Health & Wellness Category. This device makes a toner using an ampoule 
tailored to the user's skin concerns. The toner, prepared at a temperature 
suitable for the skin, is then absorbed into a cotton pad for application. The 
device allows for customized skin care for different parts of the face using 
ampoules that contain various effective ingredients. In addition, the process 
itself is hygienic since toner is prepared on the spot with each use.

CES 2022

1) Mind-linked Bathbot
The Mind Linked Bathbot is a robot that analyzes in real time the user's 
emotions using brain waves through an 8-sensor headset. It then interprets the 
data to make a bath bomb with customized, optimized scents and colors for the 
individual all within a minute.

2) Myskin Recovery Platform
The Myskin Recovery Platform is an integrated platform that is designed to 
quickly assess and monitor the skin's condition to provide a customized 
solution. Using this next-generation personalized service, the user can 
diagnose changes on the skin's surface with his or her mobile phone camera and 
an illuminated mirror, and the moisture and elasticity of the skin with a small 
sensor. These data are then analyzed through AI to offer a cosmetics 
prescription, which is updated continuously to improve the skin.
