Abstract: Systems and methods for determining an apparent skin age of a person and providing customized skin care product recommendations. The system utilizes a computing device to mask facial macro features in an image of a person and then analyze the image with a convolutional neural network to determine an apparent skin age of the person. Determining the apparent skin age may include identifying at least one pixel that is indicative of skin age and utilizing the at least one pixel to provide the apparent skin age. The system may be used to determine a target skin age of a person, determine a skin care product or skin care regimen for achieving the target skin age, and provide an option for a user to purchase the product.
