Taipei, TaiwanApril 27, 2017 CyberLink Corp. (5203.TW),today released MakeupDirector 2, the latest version of its versatile virtual makeup software. The joint creation of CyberLink and leading beauty app developer, Perfect Corp., MakeupDirector combines decades of experience in developing photo editing software with the incredibly realistic facial-recognition technology behind the hit mobile app YouCam Makeup.


With the release of MakeupDirector 2, further integration has been made with Perfect Corp’s beauty community Beauty Circle, including step-by-step tutorial videos for popular makeup designs, allowing users to apply pre-designed virtual makeup “looks” in real life. Users can further break down their own personal or downloaded “looks” by the different colors and designs applied.

Users now have the convenience of creating their own custom color palette across foundation, eyeliner, blush and other makeup applications, removing obstacles such as color matching and streamlining the creative process. Additionally, MakeupDirector features simple sliding tools and customizable color palettes, granting customers quick, headache-free, digital makeup results.

“Applying virtual makeup should not be limited to traditional photo retouching, but should provide a method for perfecting makeup designs in real life as well,” said Dr. Jau Huang, CEO of CyberLink. “With Makeup Director 2 we have made this concept a reality, by adding interactive tools that are granting makeup artists and photographers the flexibility to ensure the highest quality results, regardless of the challenges faced in their projects.”
