skin analyzer app android which is better

Skinbetter-(Free)

Full disclosure: We teamed up with SkinBetter to create this one—but we think you’ll be just as impressed with the high-tech skin-analysis tool as we were. Just snap a photo of yourself, create a skin profile, and let the app do its thing: It uses dermatologist-grade scanning technology to identify your biggest skin issues (including wrinkles, redness, and dark spots), then serves up recommendations for products that will treat them. It all happens in seconds, and you can even purchase products right on the spot!Available for iPhone and Android.

Makeup Genius by L’Oréal Paris-(Free)

You don’t even have to upload a photo: Makeup Genius applies everything from cat eyes to bold red lipstick and pink blush (or all three!) in—get this—real time. Using your smartphone’s front-facing camera, the app scans 64 points on your face to perfectly swipe on lipstick, blush, eye shadow, and liner. Because it all happens live, you can test out each look at different angles, which is, well, just genius.Available for iPhone

Beautybooked-(Free)

If you live in New York City, L.A., Houston, or Dallas, BeautyBooked is a good place to start your search for a salon or spa—and we’re not just saying that because it features the Allure Directory reviews. You can browse by salon name or treatment, check out reviews (from us and other users), flip through salon and spa photos, and book a service—even for a particular stylist or technician—directly through the app. And if you don’t live in New York City, L.A., Houston, or Dallas, stay tuned: More cities are coming soon! Available for iPhone

Think Dirty-(Free)

Before your mind gets stuck in the gutter, this app determines how toxic your beauty products are—a pretty brilliant idea, since ingredient details aren’t always easy to find. Scan a product’s barcode or search the database by product name; the app ranks its ingredients from one to ten on a “Dirty Meter,” as well as offering greener alternatives. The library isn’t the most extensive, but you can submit nonreviewed products for consideration as you scan your way through your vanity.Available for iPhone.

Facetune-($2.99)

We know, Photoshopping an iPhone pic just so you can post it on Instagram is a bit much. But FaceTune offers an impressive suite of editing tools—no computer necessary. You can smooth complexions, make zits disappear, correct red eye, and brighten teeth so fast, it’s hardly high-maintenance.Available for iPhone, Android, and Windows Phone

Facetune-($2.99)

Drugstore Dupes-($2.99)

This app is the ticket for beauty addicts shopping on a budget, pairing splurge-worthy products with cheaper drugstore versions. It’s not perfect (the search function is pretty bare-bones, so we prefer to scroll through the app’s individual category lists), but it puts inexpensive product recommendations for hair, makeup, skin, nails, and tools all in one place.Available for iPhone.Hair Color by Modiface

Hair Color by Modiface- (Free)

Ever wonder what you’d look like as a blonde? Modiface has the answer. Unlike some try-it-on apps, this one doesn’t just drop a lame overlay of a preconfigured hairstyle on top of your photo; it actually changes the hair color in the image that you import. It’s easy, too: Just upload a selfie, trace your hairstyle with your finger (so the app knows where to apply your chosen shade), and pick from one of the 30 blonde, brown, and red hair-color options. Download the premium version to unlock 20 more shades. Available for iPhone, Android, and Windows Phone
