Researchers at MIT have been working with South Korean beauty company Amorepacific for the past few years to develop a wearable “electronic skin” platform that can provide real-time insights into skin aging and make personalized skincare recommendations, and is due to debut at CES 2026 as “SkinSight.” SkinSight, which was announced this week as one of the CES 2026 Innovation Award honorees, is a Bluetooth-equipped sensor patch that adheres to the skin and works with a mobile app, tracking skin tension, UV exposure, temperature and humidity.

Based on the readings, the AI-powered app will estimate how various factors may contribute to or accelerate skin aging and suggest the best-suited products for the job so the user can incorporate them into their skincare routine. The patch is designed to be breathable and sweat resistant so it can stay on for a long time. The team has not yet shared Skinsite’s availability and cost.
