Brows not matching? Lip lines going over the edge? Open the app and today's shape is already on the screen. Trace the dashed guide once with one finger, tap Score, and see exactly what to fix next time. ONE PASS FILLS THE BROW Follow the dashed brow with your finger and the hair strokes grow in on their own, head to tail, in the right direction. Trace it again to build density. Hair Stroke, Pencil, and Pomade brushes, ten brow colors, and a stroke-length slider are one tap away when you want them. A SHAPE A DAY, SIX BROWS AND FOUR LIPS Every day opens on a new shape: Willow, Straight, High Arch, Peach Petal, Distant Mountain, Natural. Your streak counts the days you scored a round, and the result card already shows tomorrow's shape. SCORES IN PLAIN WORDS On the line. Both sides match. Filled in. Each one gets a two-word verdict, the lowest is circled on a thumbnail of your drawing, and the tip is in millimeters: "the right tail ends about 4 mm short of the left." Building up in layers scores higher than a single pass. LIPS: TRACE THE LINE, THEN FILL Four lip shapes with Matte, Gloss, and Liner finishes and ten colors. The liner snaps to the lip line, the fill stays inside it, and you get scores for outline, fill, and precision. A REALISTIC CLOSE-UP TO DRAW ON A skin-toned brow and eye area with closed lashes, no cartoon face. On iPad the canvas fills the screen height with the tools beside it. Draw with your finger, or Apple Pencil on a compatible iPad. All shapes, brushes, colors, untimed practice and the 30-Second Challenge are included. No account or ads. Available in English, Korean, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese. This is on-screen drawing practice with fixed templates. It does not scan faces, offer virtual try-on, analyze makeup on your face, or reproduce the feel of real skin. An internet connection is needed to load the interface.
