According to the company, the inclusive beauty results search feature is now available in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, where it was previously only in the United States. The design has also reportedly been refreshed to surface options from search results.

The number of beauty and fashion Pins where a skin tone can be identified has quadrupled, now three times more likely to detect multiple skin tone ranges in top search results.

In regards to the virtual lipstick Try on, there are now more than 10,000 shoppable shades across 48 million beauty Pins. NARS, Cle de Peau  and Thrive Causemetics have been added to the product shades.

Since augmented reality technology launched in January, Pinners reportedly try on an average of six lipstick shades and are five times more likely to show purchase intent on the Try on Pins.
