L'Oreal AI Routine Builder

This is a demo website that is not affiliated with L'Oreal. Includes a list of L'Oreal products as well as information about them. Users can select which products they would like to use, and my local Ollama AI will suggest a routine to use them together, as well as suggest other L'Oreal products. The user can then ask questions to the prompt-defined chatbot personality.
