Add makeup to a photo
Lipstick, blush, eyeliner, brows and eye colour on sliders that start at zero, in colours you choose. It all happens on your device.
Drop a face photo, or click to choose
JPG, PNG or WebP. It stays on your device.
How to add makeup to a photo
- Choose a photo. It opens in the photo editor with the makeup sliders first, and the faces are found on your device.
- Move a slider. Lipstick, Blush, Eyeliner, Eyeshadow, Eye colour and Brows each start at zero. Once one is above zero, its colours appear below it.
- Pick a colour. Tap a preset or choose any colour of your own. Lipstick can be matte or gloss, and brows can be darkened or filled in.
- Download. Compare with the original first. Double-click a slider to set it back to zero, and undo works as usual.
What each makeup slider does
- Lipstick
- Changes the colour of the lips and keeps their own lines and light, matte or with a gloss highlight. Nude, Rose, Berry, Red, Coral or Plum, or any colour.
- Blush
- A soft wash on each cheek that stays on the skin, so hair across the cheek keeps its colour. Pink, Peach, Berry or Bronze.
- Eyeliner
- Follows the upper lash line with a short wing and stops at the eye opening. Black, Brown, Bronze, Plum, Navy or Olive.
- Eyeshadow
- Colours the lid from the lash line up towards the brow and leaves the eye itself alone. The same colours as eyeliner.
- Eye colour
- Changes the iris and keeps the pupil, the iris's own flecks and the light caught in the eye. Blue, Green, Hazel, Grey or Brown.
- Brows
- Darken colours the brow hairs only; Fill also tints the skin between them for a fuller shape. Black, Dark brown, Brown or Taupe.
Every slider starts at zero. A light touch reads as real in a photo: most looks need one step around 50 and the rest under 30.
Colour that keeps the photo's own texture
Each step changes the colour of the pixels in its own area and keeps their light and shade, so lip lines, lashes, brow hairs and skin texture still show. A lipstick much lighter than the lips is taken only part of the way, as real lipstick lets the lip show through. Blush can darken the skin a little but never lightens it, so a pale pink does not sit on darker skin as a chalky patch.
Group photos
Every face that is found gets the same makeup. To change one person only, pick their face under Faces (numbered left to right); it is outlined on the photo. A face given its own settings keeps them when you change All faces later.
Skin and teeth too
Smooth skin, Even tone, Reduce shine, Dark circles, Whiten teeth and Bright eyes are lower on the same panel, so one photo can have both. The Retouch face page opens with them first.
What happens to your photo
The face points (eyes, lids, brows, lips, the outline of the face) are found by a face landmark model that runs in your browser. It is downloaded once from this site. The makeup is then ordinary colour changes placed by those points. Nothing in the picture is generated, and the photo never leaves your device.
