The NovaMirror
What is the NovaMirror?
The NovaMirror is an AI-powered smart mirror that scans the face, calculates and mixes your perfect shade match, and dispenses your personalized, custom foundation on the spot within minutes! Think, like a Keurig but for foundation!
Is the NovaMirror available for purchase?
The NovaMirror is currently in final prototyping and testing phase and is not yet available for sale. As we get closer to shipping, we will open pre-orders. If you’d like to be notified the moment pre-orders go live, join our waitlist here!
When will the NovaMirror be available?
As we finalize the NovaMirror prototype, a more definitive timeline will be available. Current expectations are beta testing beginning Q3 2026 and consumer units shipping Q4 2026!
How does the NovaMirror work?
The NovaMirror uses AI-driven facial analysis across 400+ facial zones to identify your precise skin tone and undertone. From there, it formulates your exact foundation shade on demand from 4.5 million possible shades. Each device holds 9 refillable ChromaStar pods and allows you to select your preferred finish (natural, dewy, or matte) and coverage (skin tint, light, medium, or full). No guesswork, no near-misses!
Will there be a companion app?
Yes! A companion app will be available when the NovaMirror ships, allowing you to sync your shade formulations, manage preferences, and access your history across devices. More details will be shared as we get closer to official launch.
How many shades can the NovaMirror make?
The NovaMirror produces over 4.5 million shade combinations, formulated in real time based on a scan of your current skin tone and undertone. Every shade is available at every use, regardless of your skin tone!
For Brands and Retail Partners
How does Chromara work with beauty brands?
Chromara is manufacturing infrastructure, not a competitor (think, like a Keurig!). We do not manufacture or sell foundation under our own brand, instead, beauty brands provide their proprietary base formulas in refillable ChromaStar pods, and our dispensing system blends those formulas on demand into precise, individualized shades for each consumer.
Your formula. Our dispensing layer.
The consumer gets a perfect match every time!
What does ChromaCore do, and how is it different from the NovaMirror?
The NovaMirror is Chromara’s consumer device, designed for personal use at home. ChromaCore is our core dispensing technology built into every device, regardless of it’s use case. The ChromaCore enables us to offer a commercial dispensing unit, built for in-store deployment at retail locations. Both use the same core technology: 9 refillable pods, 4.5 million shade combinations, AI-driven facial analysis, and patent-pending technology. The ChromaCore is designed to replace traditional foundation shelf inventory in-store retail, recovering shelf space, eliminating dead stock, and delivering a perfect match to every customer who walks through the door!
What results can brands and retailers expect?
Brands deploying our ChromaCore can expect ~75% SKU reduction per formula per brand, roughly 50% recovery of dedicated shelf space, dramatically lower shade-mismatch return rates, and full MoCRA-compliant lot traceability built into every dispense. Every unit manufactured is tracked: what was made, where, and for whom.
Is ChromaCore available now?
The ChromaCore is planned for deployment in Q3-Q4 2026 alongside the consumer NovaMirror launch. We’re currently seeking brand formulas and retail partners ahead of that timeline. If you’re interested in exploring a partnership, please contact us at info@chromarabeauty.com.
Is there an industrial or high-volume variant planned?
Yes. An industrial variant of the ChromaCore is planned for Q4 2026, designed for higher-volume deployment environments. For more information, contact info@chromarabeauty.com.
