The AI shopping concierge for beauty and skincare stores
Beauty shoppers don't think in categories — they think in skin types, concerns and routines. Vorena reads catalog photos when the store syncs, and turns your storefront into an expert advisor that recommends exactly what their skin needs.
A wall of products is no way to build a routine
Beauty has more personal nuance than almost any catalog — and the part that matters most rarely lives in your tags.
A shopper looking for “an affordable routine for oily, sensitive skin” isn't searching for a SKU. They're describing a skin type, a concern, an ingredient preference and a budget all at once. Keyword search hands them hundreds of single products with no logic to tie them together, and rigid filters ask them to translate all of that into checkboxes your catalog may not even have. Most simply give up — and the right routine was sitting in your store the whole time.
Shoppers can name a skin type, a concern, and a budget. Vorena matches that to products in the live catalog. A multi-step routine added as a set is coming on Growth.
The questions beauty shoppers actually ask
Illustrative exchanges showing how Vorena turns a plain-language request into a real recommendation from your catalog.
I have oily skin and want an affordable skincare routine.
Let's keep it simple and budget-friendly. For oily skin I'd start with the Clarity Gel Cleanser, add the 2% Niacinamide Serum to balance oil, and finish with the Oil-Free Gel Moisturizer — a complete routine that won't feel heavy. Want me to add a lightweight SPF to round it out?
I need a fragrance-free moisturizer for sensitive skin.
Sensitive skin, understood — let's skip the fragrance entirely. The Calm Barrier Cream and the Ceramide Repair Lotion are both fragrance-free and built to soothe reactive skin, and the Soothe Daily Gel is a lighter option if a cream feels too rich. Should I keep everything fragrance- and essential-oil-free?
Example product names are illustrative. Vorena only ever recommends items from your live catalog.
What makes Vorena right for skincare
Three things a beauty store needs from an AI concierge — and Vorena does all three out of the box.
Vision-enriched understanding
Vorena reads the store's own product images at catalog sync, on every plan — finish, shade family, texture, format and the claims on the packaging — and builds the rich attributes your tags rarely capture. It can tell a matte foundation from a dewy one, a gel cleanser from a balm.
Discovery by skin type and concern
"A gentle cleanser for oily, acne-prone skin" or "fragrance-free and under $40" — Vorena understands skin type, concern, ingredient, and budget, not just product names.
From the concern to checkout
The product that fits the concern shows up as a live card, with add to cart in the chat. Adding a full regimen as a set is coming on Growth.
Beauty and skincare questions, answered
What store owners ask before turning their storefront into a skincare advisor.
How does Vorena work for a beauty and skincare store?
Vorena installs on your Shopify store and reads catalog photos when the store syncs, along with the labels, to build rich attributes — finish, texture, shade family, format, key ingredients and the concerns a product targets — that your tags usually miss. Shoppers then describe their skin type, concern and budget in plain language, and Vorena guides them to the right products from your live catalog, with add to cart right inside the conversation.
Can shoppers get a full routine instead of single products?
Yes, and that's exactly where beauty shoppers struggle. Most people don't want one product — they want a routine that works together. Vorena understands the order and logic of a regimen, so a request like "an affordable routine for oily skin" returns a coordinated cleanser, treatment and moisturizer from your catalog rather than hundreds of standalone results.
Can it filter by ingredient, like fragrance-free or clean?
It can. Vorena reads ingredient and claim information from your product pages and images, so shoppers can ask for fragrance-free, clean, vegan or specific actives like niacinamide or ceramides and get only products that genuinely fit — without you having to hand-tag every attribute first.
Can it suggest a full skincare set?
Cross-sell and upsell suggestions are coming on Growth. The plans you can buy today, Lite and Starter, help the shopper find the product they asked for.
