Product Groups/ Looks
'Looks' are just groups of products. So you cannot edit the makeup of a Look, instead you must edit the makeup of the individual products separately and view them together using the Look.
Before you begin adding lots of products or Looks in the Portal we recommend reading the Best Practices & Tips.
Why and How to Use Looks?
- allow end-users to browse by Look instead of, or in addition to, browsing by individual products
- create a base look(s) - group of products - to reuse throughout the app/website, whether attached to Looks or products. This is commonly used to add a 'beautifying filter' to apps that mostly focus on products like eyeshadow and lipsticks so that the target makeup doesn't look too awkward against natural skin.
- group products for other purposes: i.e. in display or email to show extra recommended products (but that won't display as makeup on the face)
How to Add, Edit, & Delete Looks
To create a 'Look' you should first add makeup shades/products (you'll need to add and edit them individually)
Then create Looks and add the required product shades to see the products together.
ADD NEW product/Look by clicking, Product Shades, the category you want, and then click 'New' at bottom of Item List
DUPLICATE OR USE A PRESET product/Look by selecting it, then clicking 'duplicate' and following prompts. This works well with 'presets'
EDIT product/Look data, colour, mask, active (use camera to test). Edits appear realtime but don't affect anything until you click 'Save'
DELETE a product/Look by selecting it and click the trash icon in edit tabs
EDIT LOOK MAKEUP via editing the individual products separately. You could have multiple windows open to edit products while viewing the combined Look
EDIT LOOK ASSORTMENT in the Look's edit tab go to Makeup> Products, and click "New", delete, or edit the list
Order of Products in a Look Matters
You can add multiple product shades from the same category to a Look. If you do the last one of that category added (at the bottom of the product list in the Look) will be the one to appear on a face when viewing the virtual makeup. However, you can manipulate which products are displayed in UI vs what is used for virtual makeup using the 'Visibility' settings in each product's Info tab.

The example shown is the same look with 2 eyeshadows in it.
- In the left one the bottom eyeshadow will appear because it was added last.
- In the right one the top eyeshadow will appear because the bottom has the 'visualise makeup' toggled off.
