[Shiseido](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiseidos-new-drink-format) is introducing a new digital experience revolving around the [C-Bright serum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimune-power-infusing-serums). The new digital product passport (DPP) is a comprehensive virtual profile for tangible goods, offering consumers and stakeholders unprecedented transparency into the serum's composition, manufacturing processes, and lifecycle.

“The non-transferability of the passport is crucial for our brand as it reinforces the exclusivity and value of the rewards and experiences we offer,” said Sandrine Henrie, the co-founder of Ulé. “This way, we maintain a sense of personal connection and appreciation for our customers’ loyalty, and it also helps to prevent misuse or exploitation of the rewards program.”

Leveraging a partnership with French [Web3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiseido-3) provider Arianee, this release allows Shiseido to gauge what kinds of products their customer base desires and purchases most.
