### 1/5 — Absolute terrible

*2026-05-30, version 2.2.3*

This app is terrible for people with different skin tones, made me look anime which was nothing like the reference. I would never download this app again -♾️/5

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-05-22, version 2.2.3*

You have to pay to do a lot and it makes it look so bad on your skin in the pictures. It’s not worth it at all

### 1/5 — Ads Scam & Spam

*2026-05-17, version 2.2.3*

Make it possible to use your app or I will report to Apple, so many bad practices, don’t risk your account

### 1/5 — Termination

*2026-04-23, version 2.2.2*

Canceled my subscription 
It never canceled and charged me three times I simply just want my money back

### 1/5 — Total waste of time

*2026-02-25, version 2.2.0*

No free functionality

### 1/5 — Wanted to like it

*2026-02-11, version 2.0.6*

I tried several apps before this one, only to be disappointed with the level of information, guidance, and basic functionality of the tools. GlowUp seemed promising based on the initial UI and advertised features, and I was excited to see a “no makeup” look in the aesthetic options! I’m 48 years old and have never learned how to do/use makeup because I’ve never needed or wanted to. Even those of us with youthful genes and good skin age, though, and I’m increasingly aware of how makeup might help me be more confident. However, I have NO IDEA how to even shop for appropriate makeup, much less apply it in a way that seems true to me. 
Apps (any products) that don’t allow users to see what they’re actually purchasing before committing are frustrating and not worth the risk or my investment. Because GlowUp actually asked some important foundational questions that other apps didn’t, I thought I might have found a helpful solution. However, after selecting a preferred “look” and waiting for AI to “customize my routine/products/look,” I was met by the paywall. I have absolutely no objection to paying for an app, but NOT BEFORE I can determine whether it’s useful to me. What kind of instruction does it provide - video? Writing? Explanations about why to do something in a certain way? Tips on HOW to choose colors based on skin tone, seasons, outfits, etc? 

Lost a potential customer and rave reviewer because I couldn’t see what you’re actually offering.  I think I’ve decided to just go old-school and ask a friend.

### 5/5 — Glow up - Makeup & Beauty

*2026-01-27, version 2.0.6*

It does wonders

### 5/5 — I’m 7 not 10.

*2026-01-09, version 2.0.6*

I want to use it now!!!!!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-01-06, version 2.0.6*

You can't even see if it works unless you subscribe. Why would I pay for something before I know if it works? These good reviews must be fake.

### 1/5 — Must pay to even use it.

*2025-12-20, version 2.0.6*

Has you do an entire quiz, take a photo, and rate the app before you even realize you can’t use it without paying. Wasteful download.
