7 Free Hair And Beauty Apps To Help You With Your Makeover

We all have those days where we look in the mirror and feel a sudden urge to change everything. We want a different hairstyle, a new colour for our nail polish, different lipstick, sometimes even different hair colour.

You could consult with a hairdresser on their thoughts or go to your local salon bar, but first it’s worth doing your research and to help you here’s our guide to seven free apps that you can use to give your makeover a test drive.

1# YouCam Makeup – iOS and Android

The smart selfie camera that detects your face to give you the most accurate, real-life looking makeup application in both real-time and on photos.

Here’s another makeup app for you to choose endless combinations of eye makeup, lip colours, hairstyles, hair colours, accessories and more.

3# L’Oréal Paris Makeup Genius – Android

Hair Color by ModiFace is one of the best apps out there in terms of realism, accuracy and choice. When you want to try a different colour or add some shine, it’ll blend in naturally without all the blockiness.
