To support its independent consultants, Mary Kay created the Suite 13 virtual beauty showroom. The experience for the digital-driven environment kicked off in Mexico and it has since expanded to the company's consultants and customers in Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Columbia and Peru.
The virtual beauty pop-up creates a 3D, 360-degree shopping experience, so that guests can browse products, learn within virtual rooms and get familiar with the company's founder.
The recently expanded virtual experience is set to be introduced across more markets to support even more Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultants. Suite 13 helps to provide the flexibility of a digital business, so that consultants can share immersive and personalized experiences fueled by high-tech innovation.
