user flow
User Flow 1: A first-time user chooses a recommend style set and purchases another eye shadow product in the beauty section.

User takes the skin test, see their skin condition report, and enters the VR try-on page. User can adjust their preference in
filter, and App will automatically adjust the recommended makeup set.
User can see the detail information of each product included in the recommended set, and adjust the products in the set.
User can also view the products individually in catalog, and try on the featured products. The chosen product will also be added to the shopping cart with the selected set.
After select all the items they want, user can check out the shopping cart immediately. This shopping cart is individual from Amazon’s original shopping cart, and won’t interfere each other.
User Flow 2: User chooses a recommended skin care set and purchase another toner product in the personal care section.

User can find 1-Blink feature through
Amazon’s homepage - other portal, and see recommended skincare sets based on their skin test result on the homepage.
User can edit set’s individual product, see the detail information, and view the individual recommended products in catalog.
marketing page
We created both desktop and mobile version of the marketing page to showcase our responsive design.
We introduced our main features and designed some animation on the webpage.
future thinking
How can 1-Blink changed overall shopping experience, Sharing feature and personal profile.
1.
If we have more time, we will refine our sharing feature, which includes sharing the shopping cart list to friends through Instagram or iMessage, and opening friends’ shared link in social media.
2.
We will round up our profile page if we have more time, which includes skin test history, maybe liked product, etc.
