LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Amorepacific has been named a CES 2025 Innovation Award Honoree for its generative AI-based makeup application, 'WANNA-BEAUTY AI.' This marks the company's sixth consecutive CES Innovation Award recognition. In addition to the award-winning application, Amorepacific will be showcasing its latest beauty technologies at this year's events - including the 'AI Skin Analysis & Care Solution,' which will be unveiled in Samsung Electronics' 'MICRO LED Beauty Mirror,' and a new skincare device from its beauty device brand makeON.

'WANNA-BEAUTY AI,' an Innovation Award Honoree in the AI category, is a voice-activated chatbot application that leverages generative AI to help customers discover their ideal makeup looks and experience personalized virtual try-ons. The application first analyzes skin tone, facial features, and proportions with user photos. The AI solution, trained with data from makeup artists, then offers makeup recommendations and virtual try-ons. Users can also virtually try on someone else's makeup on their faces, all done conveniently through a voice consultation interface.

The patented solution, developed to provide tailored makeup for individual customers, incorporates Amorepacific's image diagnosis technology and the AI image generation technology co-developed with KAIST. 'WANNA-BEAUTY AI' will be showcased at the Venetian Expo Innovation Awards Showcase.

Amorepacific will also unveil its latest beauty technologies at CES. The company's proprietary technology 'AI Skin Analysis & Care Solution' will be incorporated into Samsung Electronics' 'MICRO LED Beauty Mirror' and showcased at the Samsung Electronics' First Look booth. Combining camera-based optical skin diagnosis with contact-type skin diagnosis, the 'AI Skin Analysis Solution' can offer in-depth skin diagnosis and care recommendations.

In addition, the new 'Skin Light Therapy 3S' from Amorepacific's beauty device brand makeON will be showcased at the booth. The device will be launched in March 2025, with a dedicated app seamlessly integrated with the 'AI Skin Analysis & Care Solution.'

The renovated court at Communal Elementary School opens a dedicated space for learning, sport, and community life in Buhangin.

DAVAO CITY, Philippines, Aug. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- STARCARES, the community impact initiative of STARTRADER, has completed the redevelopment of the basketball court at Communal Elementary School in Buhangin, Davao City, Philippines. Now open and in daily use, the facility serves approximately 20,000 people, including around 2,000 learners, 72 school staff, 1,600 parents, and 16,000 residents of Barangay Communal.

For students, the court offers a dependable space to learn and play, doubling as the venue for graduations, award ceremonies, and school assemblies. For the wider community, it becomes a gathering place for meetings, celebrations and youth activities once classes end, reflecting how central basketball is to daily life in Buhangin.

"Before, we held graduations, school activities and community gatherings on a cracked, uneven court. Today, our students have a safe and proper space to learn, play and celebrate, while the wider community has a place that can bring people together."
— Nelson Sepe Lubguban Jr., Principal of Communal Elementary School

STARCARES designed the redevelopment around long-term community use, ensuring the investment extends beyond construction as a practical resource for students, families and the wider Buhangin community.

"A court becomes powerful when it gives young people somewhere to show up, be seen, and grow stronger together. That is the impact we wanted to create."
— Peter Karsten, Chief Executive Officer of STARTRADER.

The Davao project extends STARCARES' work revitalising community infrastructure, following similar initiatives in Vietnam, Thailand and Nigeria, and reflects STARTRADER's commitment to supporting the communities it operates in, beyond its work in financial markets.

Under 'Where Tomorrow's STARS Begin', STARCARES will continue identifying communities where practical infrastructure can create lasting everyday value.
