NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Perfect Corp, the leading AI + AR beauty tech solutions provider and developer of the award-winning virtual beauty app, YouCam Makeup, experiences record high user engagement and extends service hours to best serve the beauty community at home practicing social distancing. Recent YouCam Makeup user behavior data showed a 32% spike in daily virtual try-ons, 50% more calls through the free Beauty Advisor 1-on-1 service, and 2X more time spent watching YouCam livestream shows. In an effort to meet consumer demand and continue delivering on these interactive personalized virtual connections users are craving right now, YouCam Makeup is extending service hours for the on-demand Beauty Advisor 1-on-1 consultation service to 2PM to 10PM EST daily, and expanding the live show schedule to 1PM to 11PM EST seven days a week.

“The YouCam Makeup mobile app experience invites a level of discovery, experimentation, and social sharing to keep users connected and entertained during an otherwise isolating time at home,” shares Perfect Corp. founder and CEO, Alice Chang. “We are working hard to serve our beauty lovers and brand partners through our digital experiences, services, and solutions that keep us connected while we do our part to stay home in the fight against the spread of COVID-19.”
