If you follow makeup bloggers and streamers, you've probably heard about YouCam Makeup. It's one of the best-known solutions in the world for improving your makeup skills!
In addition to filters, presets, retouching tools, and real-time makeup features, the software provides guidance for all skill levels. You don't need to have any experience in the field to create your own makeup.
Using augmented reality technology, your makeup will become even more beautiful and well-done. A good front camera is usually enough to get a good experience, but the app is not always very accurate.
To remove ads, you need to purchase the premium version of YouCam.
Makeup Plus

Makeup Plus is also an excellent option for those who want to apply makeup without wasting too much time. Its augmented reality technology is superior to that of YouCam Makeup: if you have a device compatible with the technology, it may be one of the best options for you!
Try out different looks before you apply them. This is a great way to save money, too: once you find the shade you want, it will be much easier to find the one you need.
Various filters and effects can be used throughout the process to ensure everything goes smoothly! Plus, you don't need to have any experience in the subject: practice a lot with Makeup Plus!
However, it is important to note that the software is not exactly lightweight and may struggle to run on more modest devices. And, like practically all the other competitors on this list, its best features are available in its paid version.
Facetune

Although it is best known as a photo editor, Facetune also has features to help you with makeup. However, its focus is on highlighting the positive aspects of images and removing as many of the negative aspects as possible.
You can also change the proportions of your face, such as your nose and jaw shape, to create more harmonious looks. Everything is done quickly, easily and intuitively.
If the photo looks good, but pimples, scars or blemishes in them are bothering you, don't worry: Facetune can help you remove them.
Its only negative point (and it's not the app's fault) is that it's possible to create really unrealistic images of people, which unfortunately is often used by scammers on online dating platforms.
BeautyCam

This powerful makeup app offers a pretty considerable range of features for everyone. Its interface is quite nice and easy to use, without any major juggling.
Its augmented reality features are very good and help you apply your makeup the way you want. Whether you're taking a walk in the park or going to the party of the year, BeautyCam has it all!
Like Makeup Plus, this app is not the lightest and may have some performance issues on low-end devices. Therefore, it is recommended to test it if you have a mid-range device, at least.
Furthermore, it is a great option for applying perfect makeup and achieving the look you desire!
