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.

About

EyebrowSnap

Read full description

EyebrowSnap is a focused camera mirror for one of the hardest parts of a makeup routine: checking the balance between both brows while you draw. Live Symmetry Copy follows your brows on the device and places a mirrored view of one brow over the other. Switch between Original and Live Copy, choose which brow to copy, pinch to zoom, and adjust the overlay opacity without taking a photo. Shape Guides provide a second way to work. Start with a Straight guide, choosing a straight line or gentle curve, then use EyebrowSnap Pro for Soft Arch and High Arch guides, three reference points, precise width, height, position, angle and curve controls, and reusable My Brow presets. Brow close-up lets you view the left brow, both brows, or the right brow with adjustable magnification. Once aligned, it keeps showing the current camera view even when a finger or brush briefly interrupts brow detection. Makeup mode expands the main camera preview while keeping essential controls accessible. Features: - Live mirrored copy from either brow to the other - Instant Original and Live Copy comparison - Horizontal Balance Line that follows both brows - Straight, Soft Arch, and High Arch shape guides - Straight and gently curved variants for the Straight guide - Optional brow head, arch, and tail reference points - Pinch zoom and adjustable opacity - Live Brow close-up with Left, Both and Right selection - Makeup mode with a larger camera preview - My Brow presets for guide settings - Japanese and English display - No account or photo-library access - Camera frames and eyebrow landmarks are processed on the device and are not saved or uploaded Faces are naturally different on each side. EyebrowSnap is an adjustable makeup guide, not a beauty assessment or a promise of mathematical symmetry. The free tier includes Live Symmetry Copy, the Balance Line, and the Straight guide without a usage limit. Monthly or Yearly Pro unlocks all brow shapes, precision controls, brow points, My Brow presets, and future Pro guides. Yearly Pro includes a seven-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in App Store account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
