In collaboration with China Duty Free Group (CDFG), L’Oréal Paris has unveiled a digital-first L’Oréal Paris Maison pop-up in Hainan, featuring the brands’ newly launched Revitalift Filler HA Serum.

 

The fully integrated online and offline (O+O) takeover coincides with the Lunar New Year and will run from 1 January until 28 February.

 

In celebration of the Year of the Tiger, through different online touchpoints of a traveller’s journey, an invitation is sent to Hainan travellers through a L’Oréal Paris virtual shopping experience.

Entering the first floor of the virtual pop-up, visitors are invited to a virtual skin consultation with Skin Genius – L’Oréal Paris’ skin diagnostics tool powered by advanced artificial intelligence.
