I get bored using the same face all the time ### 4/5 — Good but it needs some work *2023-01-05, version 2.4* I honestly think that this game is amazing it’s just that I wish it had the perms to blend and stuff cause the blending brush is a fail tbh I rlly need blending brushes to improv this better for beginners too. ### 3/5 — Unable to create anything *2021-12-23, version 2.3* This app has the capacity to be amazing. Sadly you cannot use anything without paying.. I understand you need to make profit from your work but there must be some other way. I would use this app daily if this was to change. Incredible idea just impossible to use 😢 ### 3/5 — The Learning Curve is Too Wide *2020-09-14, version 2.2* I really love the concept of this app and it is terribly needed for Makeup and Face paint artist. I have the following suggestions: Get rid of the two finger method for erasing-it does not always respond consistently. Replace it with an undo button. Next, please make the lashes so that they cover the lash line more realistically and add an option for single lashes. You can also make the lashes “drag and drop”. I also suggest adding eye shapes so that this can represent the variety of shapes we see in people as well as mouth. ### 2/5 — Noooo *2020-06-05, version 2.2* If your a business that has plenty of money to spare to purchase the virtual equivalents of products and brushes then this may be of use. But to the average consumer than just wants an app that’s slightly more sophisticated than Paint with face charts as a background, to make better digital face charts for free... keep moving, this isn’t it. ### 3/5 — Something has changed... *2020-04-29, version 2.2* I love this app it’s definitely one of my favourites but there is a slight issue. Recently, I have been unable to layer or blend the makeup without it looking streaky and green. I really hope you can tell me what is going on or how it can be fixed ?? Thank you 😊 ### 2/5 — Come on! Where’s the undo button? *2020-03-14, version 2.2* How does a developer not update an app in an entire year?! Listen to your customers! The app is awesome for planning out look but is severely undeveloped. PLEASE ADD AN UNDO BUTTON AND CREATE A CLOUD THAT SAVES LOOKS ACROSS DEVICES! That’s all we’re asking for!!! ### 4/5 — Love! *2019-09-18, version 2.2* Loving this! so handy for planning looks on the go. I wish there was an undo button and an option to blend. also changing the intensity is a bit clunky, a scroller bar would be better. i would also love to be able to change brush size & also more brushes added! but loving it so far ### 4/5 — App *2019-04-27, version 2.2* I love this app I can do so many creations on it but you don’t get everything for free ### 4/5 — Love …suggestion *2019-04-18, version 2.2* Add an undo button and more brands!! The more brands the better ### 4/5 — Please add an undo button! *2019-04-16, version 2.2* I love this app! As a mua this helps me visualize editorial and creative looks for my portfolio but I really do wish there was an undo option/button! This is an amazing app with a lot of potential! ### 4/5 — Like, but I want to love it *2019-03-21, version 2.2* I really do like this app, but there are somethings I would like too see. 1. The ability to add more then one set of lashes, and the ability to move lashes so they can be used in the bottom too. I like to do drag makeup, so this would be a life changer. 2. I wish there where more options for blank face charts, like when I create a new chart, I want different options for the background. So either add more, or give us the ability to add custom ones. 3. Colours shouldn’t be so opaque when you have the opacity on zero, like there should be no colour, but on some brushes, even zero it to intense. 4. Better controls for changing the opacity 5. When I leave the face chart and go back into it, I want it to remember the settings and brushes I was last using Cheers ### 2/5 — How do I get a refund because I didn’t buy this stuff *2019-03-12, version 2.2* How do I get a refund because my cousins bought this stuff off my phone by accident so please get back to me and give me a refund ..! ### 4/5 — Review *2019-02-26, version 2.2* I absolutely am in love with this app as I can see how it looks on the Facechart. I also get to use different products from different companies which also quite useful. I just had one question. On the photos that are shown it shows the eyeshadow and everything being blended. I was wondering how do I blend the eyeshadows on my face chart. Thank you. ### 1/5 — IM SO MADDD 🤬🤬🤬 *2019-02-16, version 2.2* DO NOT BUY THIS APP , MY FRIEND WANTED SOME GOOD MAKEUP APPS AND WE DOWNLOADED THIS (SHE IS VERY DISAPPOINTED ) ARGGHHHHH , THE ONLY COLOUR CAN CHOSE IS PINK NOT EVEN WHITE !!!!!!!! WE R SO MAD FO NOT BUY WASTE OF FLIPPING TIME , UNLESS U WANT A FULL FACE OF BRIGHT PINK BLUSH DO NOT BUY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! FOR THE 3RD TIME WE R SO MADDDDDD🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Need to pay *2024-12-29, version 2.4* You need to pay 6 dollars to use more than 1 brush. It’s only one face chart. Instant no ### 1/5 — Scammed me… *2023-03-14, version 2.4* I bought the Millie Bobbi brown makeup pack and the next day it was completely gone. ### 1/5 — Awful. *2022-03-01, version 2.4* I used to use this service it was decent it did its job however you now have to pay for individual virtual products…. Honestly awful ### 1/5 — Nope 👎 read *2022-01-23, version 2.4* I thought this would be a good app for me planning what makeup to do each day but no it was a app when you have to pay for almost everything there’s only a tiny amount of free items I don’t recommend downloading it if you don’t want to waste money on a game. ### 1/5 — Literally awful *2021-02-15, version 2.2* Unusable Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Stupid *2020-08-10, version 2.2* You have to pay for most of the things and the quality of the app isn’t even that great. If you want to practice with makeup, your better off just buying some ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time and money *2020-01-18, version 2.2* It’s impossible to blend on here. The sizes of the brushes are almost all the same, so you never get the effect you’re trying for. ### 1/5 — Takes all your money horrible app *2019-11-11, version 2.2* Please don’t download. Bought the makeup doesn’t blend at all ### 1/5 — No free content *2019-06-22, version 2.2* There’s a surprising lack of free content. Most of it is foundation or concealer, which is a little silly and not something people can play with much. If I download the app for free, I expect to pay for upgrades. I also expect to have enough free content in the app to know if I want to pay or not. In this case there is none. You either purchase upgrades or you can use the app for a small handful of looks, most of which can’t be done on the eyes at all, so there’s no way to play around and see if you like the program without spending some money. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — My go to. *2019-05-27, version 2.2* **** EDIT**** I was hoping that the new update would fix the problem I’ve been having where the large powder brushes are streaky on low opacity. Unfortunately the issue is still there. Until it is resolved I can’t give this app a good rating OR use it professionally. Very disappointed. *** original review below. *** star rating changed to reflect current issues and unusability. The developers response seems to assume that I was giving a one star rating and also saying that I use it all the time etc. This is not the case. When I was able to use it, I gave it a good rating. Now it glitches and can of be used professionally and I have switched to procrete. Fix the issues and the rating will reflect that. (Original review) I use this professionally all the time and would be lost without it. I know people have had a hard time with it being glitchy but I've never had a problem (and am wary of ever updating it now.) It lets me work wherever I am and I don't need to start a new face chart if I make a mistake or want to try something different. Which gives me the creative freedom to try different thingsf and come up wit ideas I might not have had otherwise. It's not without flaws... There is definitely a steep learning curve - but if you play around with it for a few days you will pick it up. The colours aren't 100% true to life - just something to keep in mind. I do wish the lashes fit better - some irl huge lashes look quite small. But I still love it overall. I'm willing to overlook it's shortcomings because of the creative freedom it gives me. Glamzy for life. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — this app is amazing *2023-07-14, version 2.4* there’s still nothing like it. please bring back glamzy spotlight ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2022-11-22, version 2.4* I love it it’s really helpful and I don’t ,one paying extra for the additional items as the prices are great I wish I could download photo into it for layering or different face charts ### 5/5 — Makeup artist must have *2020-05-28, version 2.2* I really like this app I would say it needs an update on new brushes and makeup ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-08-14, version 2.2* Can’t complain about anything on this app. Yes, you have to buy stuff, but the amount of brushes and makeup choices make it worth it. Even if you don’t find your particular brand, you’ll find a dupe in here for it to give you an idea. I’m not an MUA, just a casual user who uses this to match my makeup to my outfits (saves panicking in the morning and I have an idea of what I want to do with that day’s outfit to match it, even just laying out colours) - I’ve also already seen some colours in the collections I want to buy next. The brushes take a bit of getting used to with the opacity, tilt, etc. (they all work differently, like real ones do), but I was able to start on a basic look within about ten minutes after practicing a bit. No complaints but obviously I’d just like to see more brands and colours and other stuff, maybe? Anastasia and Too Faced would be amazing. Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2018-06-04, version 2.1* I love this app. It definitely takes some time getting used to but once you get the hang of it it gets easier. I wish there were more product brands and lash options but other than that I don’t see anything wrong with this app. ### 5/5 — Glamzy Spotlight *2016-05-30, version 2.1* I would suggest adding glamzy Spotlight back, because I enjoyed uploading my charts and being able to look at others on the original app! I love glamzy 2 so much I use it almost everyday. I really hope you guys make a 3rd one with even more makeup brands. I have a lot of ideas for the app. Maybe add different eye and lip shapes and different face shapes like the old app. And a better way to give a glossy lip look. Always ways to keep improving :) ### 5/5 — Problems on iPad *2016-01-08, version 2.1* First of all, I LOVE this app, I use it constantly, literally everyday. but I am having problems using it on my iPad 4th gen, whereby the mac 182 buffer brush (set to low intensity) will make the product go rainbow looking on the skin, the more product you add the more this ugly rainbow shade comes up, please please fix this, I love the app and have purchased all of the products and brushes, but this becomes so frustrating when creating a perfect look. This was the only way to share this comment as there is no option to contact you directly. I hope you see this comment, and hopefully change this. Thank you :) ### 5/5 — Absolutely fabulous!!! *2015-02-11, version 1.9* I dreamed of an app like this!!! It's unreal that it exists. Makes my life so so so so much easier!!! Thank you so so much!!! Absolutely freakin amazing!! Still can't believe it's real. ### 5/5 — Fabulous tool for MUA'S with hectic lives *2015-01-24, version 1.9* This is fabulous. As a professional makeup artist I am always looking for ways to keep my kit as light as possible and then I'm then ladened with folders full of face plans, notes, pens, paper, pigments etc to create the face plan for my clients. This app ensures everything stays on my iPad which plays a huge part in my life along with my iPhone. Creating face plans is a huge part of my job and these can now be created with no fuss, mess or risk of spilling that late night coffee over the entire file. The fact that the face plans can be shared online with potential clients is fabulous and having everything filed and at my fingertips on my iPad is amazing. I've lost face plans in the past and it's so infuriating but this will not ever happen again as my iPad is my right arm. My only fault so far with this is app is it needs a few more makeup companies to take part such as Estée Lauder, Clinique, Benefit, Urban Decay etc. then it would be perfect. But for now I have downloaded all the current companies as they are bound to have colours in other companies ranges I require to complete the plans to my clients satisfaction. Fabulous app for a fab job. Highly recommended for the professionals and student mua's. ### 5/5 — Awesome Makeup Artist app. *2015-01-23, version 1.9* This app is great for creating ANY look you want. I use this app any time I get random inspiration. This app is a must-have for any MUA. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
