BoxyCharm and FaceTune Created An App To Let You Try Makeup Before You Buy

If you're a beauty subscription box hag like we are, chances are you have a BoxyCharm membership. Every month, subscribers receive the latest and greatest in beauty to take for a spin, giving them the opportunity to decide which products work best for them at a fraction of the price. Well now, they're taking the service to the next level, partnering up with popular app FaceTune 2 to allow Charmers the opportunity to try on makeup ahead of time via the app.

The merging makes buying makeup so much easier and decision making a serious breeze. See it all for yourself.

If you've ever used FaceTune, you know the power it has.

Let's face it, most of us are guilty of the occasional smoothing of the skin or sinch of the waist using the app. And while some people — including celebrities  — may have a tendency to go a little too far with the app, in just the right dose, the app can take your photos to the next level.

Now, the app is teaming up with BoxyCharm to make buying makeup so much easier.

FaceTune 2, the second variation of the editing favorite app, which focuses more on facial features, including the ability to adjust your smile, change the shape of your face, and even enhance your eyes, is joining forces with BoxyCharm to now make buying makeup a breeze. Here's how it works: You'll be able to try your favorite cosmetics ahead of time simply using the app to test how it will look on you without ever buying the actual product. 

"BoxyCharm and Facetune2 have partnered for an exclusive in-app filter where you can try on BoxyCharm’s featured October products," the brand wrote on its website.

Uncertain of how a smokey eye will look? Simply try it out via the app and make the decision for yourself. No more failed shadows that don't look good on your skin.

This is arguably our favorite feature. Lipsticks can really be hit or miss, and often a color that you love in packaging, isn't as flattering on your own lips. But leave it to the app to make lipstick shopping as easy as one, two, three.

Even add a bit of shimmer.

We all know shimmer — be it on the eyes or face — can be just a tad intimidating. Find out before you douse your face in glitter if it's really for you. 

So what's the price? While FaceTune 2 costs every month, for the "Charmers" who subscribe to BoxyCharm's monthly subscription, the discount will be 33% off 12 months of FaceTune.
