7 Free Beauty Apps That Make You Look Flawless in Every Photo

By Lindsey Coco for GLAM4GOOD

We think you’re gorgeous just as you are, but let’s face it — we are inundated on a daily basis with pictures of stars, models and “it” girls looking flawless. Pretty much every image you see posted from our pop culture icons is manipulated to look cooler or prettier by a filter or two. Mary Alice Stephenson, beauty expert, fashion insider and founder of GLAM4GOOD, knows the filters the stars use when posting their selfies and wants you to have the tools to look perfect, too. Sometimes we all just need a little help from the App Store! So here are Stephenson’s favorite GLAM4GOOD beauty apps at our favorite price: FREE. As Coco Chanel used to say, “The best things in life are free. The second best are very expensive.”

Change your whole look in minutes. Add a wig, widen your eyes, or just touch up your blush with the Perfect 365 app. This app goes into every detail from face shape to lipstick shade and eyeliner — you can create a whole new you!

Never have selfie regret again with the Selfie Photo Editor app. Put your best face forward in minutes. Besides editing your photo, you can also add fun accessories to make your photo Snapchat ready in no time.

Sometimes a cool filter is all you need! Vsco has an amazing set of stylish filters that you can easily adjust to fit your shot.

Look good from every angle with Camera360. The possibilities are endless with over 100 filters and options to darken or lighten your pictures in an instant. This is one of GLAM4GOOD’s favorite apps to use because it gives you so many options. They even have a self-portrait setting to help you capture the ultimate selfie.

Dying to immediately send your new photo to Instagram? Tone, smooth, and brighten your photo by just moving up and down a scale. More Beaute is a quick fix app for flawless skin in every shot.

No need for Botox. Beauty Plus is like plastic surgery (or at least a visit to the dermatologist) in an app. You can slim your face, enlarge your eyes, and even get rid of acne.

Photo Editor by Aviary was rated as one of the best apps for 2013. Capture the perfect lighting for your skin, fix a flyaway, or just filter the entire photo.
