YouCam Makeup: Face Editor
gamed ratingVirtual makeup and hairstyle try-on had potential, but the AI algorithm performs poorly: hairstyles are overlaid without adapting to face shape, AI changes facial features and body shape without being asked, and results on dark skin are cartoonish.

About the rating
The gap of 4.75 vs 2.47 is catastrophic. pct5=87, but almost all substantive reviews are negative. Several five-star reviews explicitly state they are giving five stars to be seen and describe a poor experience.
Strengths
What users love
- A wide library of virtual makeup looks lets you quickly try different styles. In older versions
- Virtual hairstyles were applied more accurately while preserving facial features.
Weak spots
What users hate
- The AI algorithm replaces facial features and ethnic characteristics instead of overlaying makeup on the original. Hairstyle results are unrecognizable and far from the real appearance. The app does not allow deleting photos from its servers after processing.
Who it is for
The app in its current state is not recommended for anyone due to unpredictable result quality and questionable data handling practices.
