### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2019-12-04, version 4.0*

I got a different skin tone and different match products every time I took a different photo.  Waste of 99p.

### 1/5 — Good idea, bad software

*2019-11-08*

I saw a review of this app online, so I thought it would work, but it’s really clumsy. If you can manage to get a selfie submitted, the color picking software is really, really off. I’m very pale with a pink undertone to my skin, I took a selfie in a well lit room, and it kept trying to tell me my skin was a shade of yellow that you might get if your liver was failing. Very weird, and when I tried swatching my wrists or my collarbones to see if that would work, it got even worse. It’s only a dollar, but given that I can do a better job color matching myself, it’s not worth it.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about your difficulties. Please be sure to take your selfie in natural light. Please also try and match your skin tone to the colour bar, to find your best match. If you have any doubts, please check the instructions, or give us a shout!

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2019-03-18, version 3.0.7*

I bought this app because I read about it in a magazine or somewhere and I thought wow that’s what I need I always have a hard time picking the right skin shade. I thought since you have to pay for this app it must be good. I was wrong. First of all, technically, the app is slow and takes a long time to load after you click something. The pictures of products are so small, browsing feels like a hassel. When I uploaded or took a selfie of myself to get the shade match, it scrunched the picture down and stretched it horizontally so it looked like a fun house mirror. The picture is also quite small and you cannot zoom in, making it very difficult to get an accurate tap on your skin. It was terrible. But most of all, my shade matches were quite inaccurate. My skin I would say is fair, example would be like Miranda Kerr’s tone. The shade matches were rarely correct. One tap on my selfie, and it says I’m medium, which I definitely am not. Another tap in the same area as the first one, and it says I’m an 100 in Fenty beauty’s concealer, which is the absolute lightest shade, literally for very pale, almost snow white skin. I actually have tried that one in real life and it is WAY too pale for me. I’m actually a 140. Not 100. Way off. All this shade matching did nothing but tell me which shades I am not. I was very disappointed, especially considering that I paid for this app. The technical functioning of it is very unpolished and actually ruins the functioning of the shade matching. And the matches aren’t even right. Waste of money. Save your money.

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2019-03-10*

Facebook connector doesn’t work and neither does creating a login manually. Created 2 logins and neither work - keeps saying my login info is incorrect. Losing $0.99 isn’t a lot, but still a bummer.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2019-03-02*

Waste of money

### 1/5 — Does NOT work

*2019-02-10*

Has issues uploading or taking photos. When you get one to load, selecting areas makes it wildly change the recommended color. It recommended everything from Fenty shade 100 to 220. 100 is extremely pale and lighter than many foundations even go to and 220 is at least medium/caramel colored and obviously too dark. What a waste.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry to hear about the problems you are experiencing. We are aware of all of the issues you have raised. Please be assured we are in the process of completely rebuilding the app. We will be releasing our new and improved version in the next 8 weeks. As a start up, it’s not always easy to get these things right the first time around. We hope you understand. Love, Slapp

### 1/5 — Waste of time & money

*2019-02-07*

Sloppy, amateurish interface and bugs galore! Many of the things I clicked on refused to do open/launch. Having now seen what this app ACTUALLY is, I’ve determined this it is utterly worthless and did nothing to help me find a foundation! Here’s how it works:  After uploading your selfie, they will basically shuffle you (and EVERYONE else!) to the same bunch of products. As you navigate your way through the so-called “matches”, it becomes increasingly obvious that these brands have paid to be promoted on this crummy app. Because most cosmetics brands wisely steered clear of the affiliation with this inferior app, the choices were woefully few. I feel like I basically spent a buck to be led on a wild goose chase. The matching feature amounts to little more than a short list of aforementioned advertised products...except that most advertisers typically proofread their copy in order to avoid the cringeworthy grammar we see in the “articles” (written by the Slapp staffers, no doubt). Please, Slappers, learn how to properly punctuate!  You, don’t, need, to, put, commas, between, every, effing, word! Annoy,ing!

**Developer response:** We couldn’t agree with you more. Unfortunately we took a chance on a new developer and are equally disappointed. Please be assured we are in the process of completely rebuilding the app. We will be releasing our new and improved version in the next 8 weeks. As a start up, it’s not always easy to get these things right the first time around. We hope you understand. Love, Slapp

### 1/5 — Do not waste your 99p!

*2019-02-04, version 3.0.7*

Extremely poor performance for this app. In trying to get a second colour match, the timer just kept going round and round. Initial colour match produced 3 foundation choices, none of which I was able to get the colour of due to the fact that tapping the wording underneath didn’t do anything. Deleted it now.

### 1/5 — Same issue

*2018-12-23*

Selfie won’t work. Just blank

**Developer response:** We have now fixed this issue, but we know we have a LOT more work to do. Please be assured we are in the process of completely rebuilding the app. We will be releasing our new and improved version in the next 8 weeks. As a start up, it’s not always easy to get these things right the when taking a chance with a new developer. We hope you understand. And we hope that V4 will deliver for you. Love, Slapp

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2018-12-20*

Same as the other person, I take or choose my selfie, and all I get is a blank white area where my photo should be. This needs to be fixed y'all!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-06-10, version 2.1.2*

I tried to log in but the buttons aren’t functioning

### 1/5 — Skin tone accuracy is poor

*2017-09-22, version 2.1.2*

Skin tone comes up differently depending on the light conditions

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This app is a scam, it doesn’t even load

*2024-05-07*

This ad doesn’t work, it doesn’t load. I can’t create a profile, I can’t view my “matches.” So dissatisfied and what a wast of money!!!

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2024-04-15, version 5.10*

Best avoided unless watching spinning circles is any joy.

### 1/5 — bad

*2021-04-29, version 5.10*

The closest thing I have found to a match is NARS concealer in Chantilly, and this app recommended foundations and concealers that are three shades too dark and the wrong undertone. If you’re pale with an olive undertone, don’t bother trying this app.

### 1/5 — Can’t log in.

*2021-04-26, version 5.10*

I just made an account and I keep getting “incorrect log in “ message...

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2021-04-17*

Does. Not. Work

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-04-17, version 5.10*

Could not even log in. Would not allow Facebook login because their settings will not allow it. Tried Apple ID login and it would not accept password. Tried to reset password and it would not allow reset email to be sent.
Complete waste of time

### 1/5 — Bad. Very bad.

*2021-04-16*

This app won’t even allow me to create an account... in any way... can’t use it if you can’t log in. Quite possibly the worst app I’ve ever experienced.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-13, version 5.7*

Let me log in just fine, I uploaded a selfie in natural light (tried to up load several actually) but it kept recommending shades (caramel, dark brown etc). I’m pale as a ghost, any of those shades would have been awfully dark on me and definitely not for someone of my skin tone. Do not recommend

### 1/5 — Absolutely garbage

*2020-04-06*

Keeps telling me my skin tone is a weird muted pink color. Completely off. Garbage

### 1/5 — App not working

*2019-12-09, version 4.0*

I downloaded the app which asked me to upload Facebook friends?? Why?? And then it just froze. Can’t get it to work.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app! Very helpful - thank you for creating it

*2018-06-14*

In a society where many companies often don't cater to all, this app has helped to bridge the gap.

It has allowed me to find out what my shade is which has been both helpful and insightful.

It has also assisted me with finding suitable products. The app listed some products which I hadn't heard of before so trying new ones has been great!

I definitely recommend this app and I will continue to use it.

### 5/5 — Very informative

*2018-02-14*

So this app is great! Make a profile and you take a picture and then It finds all the foundations that match your skin tone. Just one thing i would change is add more makeup reviews.

### 5/5 — Greatest App

*2016-09-24, version 1.0*

This app is amazing. Helped me so much.

### 5/5 — Miss

*2016-09-10, version 1.0*

Simple, fun and essential. I love that I don't need to enter a shop to buy my beauty products and the matching was perfect. Great stock list - introduced me to brands I'd never considered before. Highly recommend

### 4/5 — Great app 💗

*2023-06-25, version 5.10*

I have never rated an app before, but I wholeheartedly loved this one! I uploaded a picture of my skin and the colour match was incredible. So when I went to pick the item up the next day, I have a makeup product for life.

### 2/5 — :(

*2019-08-14*

Waste of money

### 2/5 — It’s okay

*2018-10-08, version 2.1.2*

I would like to see more high street foundations on here as I don’t recognise most of the brands

### 2/5 — Doh! 😳

*2016-09-22, version 1.0*

I'm a woman of colour - first selfie I was "porcelain👶🏻", then "medium dark👶🏽" which is about right. Third selfie I was deep dark👶🏿. Results depend on lighting - although I sat in same position and just turned my head to take different selfies. Product suggestions are ok. But I wouldn't rely on app to get foundation undertone and shade spot on.
