SEOUL, Nov. 10 (Yonhap) -- Kolmar Korea, a South Korean cosmetics manufacturer, said Monday that its "Chroma Flow" device has won the Best of Innovation Award in the beauty tech category and an Innovation Award in the artificial intelligence category at CES 2027.

The annual consumer electronics trade show is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas from Jan. 6-9 next year.

The Best of Innovation Award is given to products that receive the highest scores across all evaluation criteria among the annual Innovation Award winners. The beauty tech category was introduced in 2025, with Kolmar Korea becoming the first beauty company to receive the top honor last year.

"Chroma Flow" is an AI-powered personalized device that recreates the lip color of an influencer displayed on a screen. When users place the device against their lips, an AI optical sensor analyzes their lip condition and produces a cosmetic product in their desired shade within one minute.

Another product submitted by the company, "LumiJet Pro," a skincare device, won an Innovation Award in the AI category, bringing Kolmar Korea's total number of awards at CES 2027 to three.

"Winning the Best of Innovation Award for two consecutive years demonstrates that Kolmar Korea's database-driven manufacturing technology, which connects every stage of cosmetics production through AI, from measurement to manufacturing, has once again received global recognition," a company official said.

"Building on our accumulated data, we will further advance our beauty tech platform and lead the global market," the official added.
