Overview

Led a targeted, evidence-driven redesign of the Ami Colé website as the sole designer, partnering with founder, marketing, and engineering collaborators to align evolving business priorities with improved conversion pathways.

Rather than pursuing a full visual overhaul, the redesign focused on high-impact experience changes validated through audit findings, preserving effective components while intentionally optimizing areas creating measurable friction.

Approach:

Synthesized external and internal audit insights into a phased roadmap identifying where change would meaningfully improve user outcomes and business performance

PDP Redesign

Redesigned the product evaluation experience through a phased optimization strategy enabling reduced implementation risk and clearer attribution of conversion impact.

Phase 1: Above-the-Fold Optimization

Focused on enabling informed purchase decisions within the initial viewport.

Layout architecture

  • Responsive split-screen layout with media gallery (left) and decision-critical content stack (right)

  • Consolidated key evaluation signals above the fold:

    • Product overview and value summary

    • Ingredient highlights

    • Overall rating and social proof

    • Primary CTA

Business problem: High drop off before purchase due to excessive journey to basic information and poor CTA location (below the fold)

Design solution: Reduce time-to-confidence by surfacing essential decision inputs without requiring scroll behavior.

Phase 2: Confidence-Building Modules

Introduced structured modules below the fold to reduce uncertainty and support informed selection.

Shade Finder

  • Sectioned shade finder module positioned directly below the fold

  • Skin products displayed one-to-one on models for tone matching

  • Color cosmetics (lip & cheek) shown across all shades on multiple models for comparative evaluation

Business Problem: Sephora locations have limited shades available for in-store testing; costly returns/exchanges from online consumers

Design intent: Increase perceived personalization and reduce shade-selection risk

How-To Application Module

  • Instructional content featuring model wearing the product while visibly holding the product in-hand

  • Visual format informed by cross-channel performance insights indicating stronger conversion when product and outcome are shown simultaneously

  • Content direction influenced future art direction on shoots to ensure consistent asset capture

Design intent: Bridge the gap between aspiration and application by making product usage explicit and tangible.

Clean Ingredients & Standards Module

  • Dedicated section implemented based upon updated business priorities

  • Custom iconography system supporting claims:

    • Vegan and cruelty-free

    • Non-endocrine disrupting

    • Clean ingredient standards

Design intent: Reinforce trust and align product evaluation with evolving brand positioning.

Product-Specific FAQ Module

  • Structured question set tailored to each product

  • Experience and content framework defined in design and executed in collaboration with copy team

Design intent: Address common objections proactively and reduce decision friction.
