Estée Lauder triumphs in biometric privacy case

Estée Lauder and its cosmetics brands, including Bobbi Brown, Smashbox, and Too Faced, successfully avoided a class action suit alleging its virtual "try-on" tool breached Illinois’ biometric privacy law.

The suit accused Estée Lauder of not disclosing biometric data collection via its virtual tool. Additionally, Perfect Corp, the tool’s developer, was cleared due to insufficient Illinois connections.
