The brand

Magnifaïk is a makeup brand co-founded five years ago by Cristina Cordula and Antoine d'Arifat, sold online and exclusively at Nocibé.

Its DNA: beauty coaching. Tutorials, videos, application tips: the brand wants to help every woman find the routine that brings out her best, with products for a natural, luminous finish, from complexion enhancer to dark circle eraser.

“We had started out on Typeform, but it was a huge, clunky machine. With Ask-it, everything was impressively easy.”

An in-store sales advisor's guidance, through a screen.

01

Finding your shade online

Without trying products on, picking the wrong foundation or concealer shade is the number one barrier to buying makeup online.

02

Scattered advice

Tutorials, videos, shade charts: the answers existed, but you had to look for them and read them, especially on mobile.

03

Winning over customers beyond the community

After its success with Cristina's loyal fans, the brand wanted to win over new customers who didn't know it yet.

The solution

A beauty coaching journey, just like in store.

Every visitor first says what she needs (even out her complexion, hide dark circles, look fresh, do her eyes or lips), in order of priority. The journey then adapts to her answers, with around twenty steps designed for mobile.

Choices you can see

Skin tone, eyeshadow palette, lipstick, bronzer, blush: every choice is made from images, like in front of a display, and comes with a short personalized note.

The right shade

Skin tone is chosen from photos, among eight complexions, to recommend the right foundation and the right concealer.

The right moves

Frequency, makeup skill level, brush or no brush: the routine adapts to the way each woman actually does her makeup.

Step by step

From complexion to lips, the routine is shown in order, like a tutorial, with the brand's application tips.

Cristina's voice

The brand's caring tone and its co-founder's advice accompany every step.

The results

A complete routine rather than a single product.

Launched in late June 2026, the diagnostic raised average order value by 69%, or €34 more per order: customers leave with a complete routine rather than a single product.

It generates 4% of the store's overall revenue, and 82% of visitors leave their email at the end of the journey: that many new customers to nurture afterwards.

“A journey like talking to a sales advisor, something you can't do online. It was the tool we had wanted from the start.”

Léna, e-commerce manager
Beyond sales

Emails that speak to every need.

A growing list

With 82% opt-in, the diagnostic brings new customers into the brand's email list every day.

Targeted emails

Answers become segments in Klaviyo: you don't talk the same way to someone looking for a fresh glow and to someone doing her eyes.

Better rates

Customers who came through the diagnostic open more emails and convert better, because the emails answer what they're looking for.

“You don't say the same thing to a customer looking for a fresh glow as to a customer looking for eye products.”
