A Good Place to Start

If you flip through the latest Hollywood fashion magazines or websites there is a good chance you've seen a celebrity or two whose makeup style really stands out to you. The Celebrity Makeup Looks app can help you achieve these looks at home using products that you can pick up in the regular drugstore aisles. Even if you've never applied makeup before you'll be able to follow along with the step-by-step tutorial that is offered for each of the looks. So whose makeup looks can you check out? You'll find Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, and so much more. Some of today's hottest stars are represented in the app.

The best iPad apps for gossip

In the app's most recent update it underwent some enhancements so it now supports iOS 7. Unfortunately the app doesn't score very high, getting just 2.5 out of five stars from users. It seems as though this app is leaving users less than satisfied.
 

Recreate the Look

It's all about being able to recreate the look of your favorite stars with the Celebrity Makeup Looks app. When you launch the app you are taken right to the main menu with all the celebrity names. Just tap on the celebrity whose style you want to try to create. I will say that the main menu is a huge letdown and almost looks like an ad. It's just very uninviting and not engaging in the least bit.

After you tap on the look you like you are taken to a video tutorial. You can rate the video, comment on it, and share it with friends by email. The tutorials are fairly easy to use, the video and sound quality are both good, and the instructions are explained well and move at a good pace. You can pause, rewind, and fast forward the video whenever you like.

Final Words

The Celebrity Makeup Looks app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone provides users with a way to create a variety of celebrity looks when it comes to makeup. This one would come across much better if its user interface felt more modern.
