# Makeup Games vs Project Makeup

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Project Makeup at 100% against Makeup Games's 39%. Project Makeup also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.6). Makeup Games's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.7K vs 269). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Makeup Games sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Project Makeup sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Project Makeup holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Makeup Games has 2.7K ratings behind it against 269, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Makeup Games's written reviews are positive against 100% of Project Makeup's.

Makeup Games ships an update every 3 months, Project Makeup every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
