## What is Scar Booth?

Fake out your friends by adding realistic scars, cuts and bruises into your photos, with the Scar Booth iPhone App. Take any picture and add virtual wounds to the photo.

As seen on "The Doctors" tv show and slammed by the Daily Mail for being a little too realistic. 

Adjust the transparency and blur of the image to make it look like it is a real injury. 

Your friends and family will be convinced that you have suffered a painful injury when they see a photo of you with a black eye, bruises and a cut up face. Meanwhile you are looking as good as ever and have just posted a prank photo. 

Imagine the comments you will get when you post a photo of yourself with scars, cuts and bruises on Facebook and no one knows the story behind it.

### 5/5 — Realistic

*2024-11-14*

My husband can be emotionally abusive. I used this to hit home how much damage is done with his words and actions, no different than punching me. Great app.

### 1/5 — Waste

*2023-02-15*

When picture is selected it froze and when you finally manage to get one it looks so fake

### 2/5 — Fake look

*2023-01-16*

I tried the bruises and looks quite fake. Is a shame

### 2/5 — Horrible app

*2022-10-19*

Nothing realistic about it

### 4/5 — Message

*2019-12-04*

Good app

### 2/5 — Skin tones

*2019-04-01*

The bruises seem to have a halo around them. Unless you’re very white skin the bruises don’t work well on darker skins. It looks fake because there’s like a white halo around it

### 4/5 — Simple and Effective

*2019-02-06*

Does what is says. Wish it had better color adjustment for different skin tones.

### 5/5 — Bloody good

*2017-08-28*

👍👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Very realistic!

*2017-03-21*

I was actually very surprised on how convincing the wounds look.
Used one on FB and pretty much everyone believed it was real.

### 5/5 — Scary

*2015-10-17*

This is not for the squeamish. Great fun for older people.
