Let's spill the tea - ever wonder how your favorite MUAs make their already-stunning looks even more jaw-dropping on social? Spoiler alert: they're not just masters with brushes and blending, they're also slaying the editing game with Facetune. From pre-visualization to post-shoot magic, here's how the pros are using our tools to serve next-level content that's making everyone do a double take.
Real MUAs, real Facetune magic
Meet Matt Lars, the makeup artist showcasing exactly how he enhances his already-fierce looks. In his creative reel, Matt takes us behind the scenes of his editing process, and honestly? It's giving masterclass energy. Starting with AI Enhance for that overall chef's kiss perfection, he builds layer by layer: defining his blush for that "I'm naturally flushed" vibe, amping up his lipstick for extra pop, making his eyeshadow serve main character energy, and even playing with eye colors because why not? The best part? He's doing all this on video, proving that Facetune isn't just for still shots anymore.
From inspiration to creation
But wait, it gets better. Emmy Combs is taking Facetune inspiration to the next level. After discovering a full-face moment in our Discover feed, she turned it into an IRL tutorial. Talk about reverse engineering perfection! This is exactly the kind of innovative thinking that's making Facetune a go-to tool in every makeup artist's kit.
Pro tricks of the trade
And when it comes to special effects, MUAs are getting extra creative. Take this Halloween transformation artist who crafted an incredible look with her professional makeup skills, then used Facetune's eye color tools to add the perfect finishing touch before sharing. It's the perfect example of how makeup artists are combining their traditional techniques with digital tools to take their content to the next level.
Meanwhile, makeup artist Manazeffects shows us how to add that extra sparkle - literally. By using Facetune to enhance her already stunning work with glitter and shimmer effects, she gives her clients a preview of that red-carpet worthy glow.
How the pros are using Facetune (and how you can too)
Pre-look visualization
Before touching a single brush, smart MUAs are using Facetune to:
- Test different eye looks faster than you can say "cut crease"
- Play with lip colors without buying every shade at Sephora
- Try on full faces from our Discover feed for client consultations
- Experiment with different blush placements because placement is everything
Post-shoot enhancement
Already created a masterpiece? Here's how to make it pop even more:
- Use AI Enhance for that "I woke up like this" perfection
- Define existing makeup with our targeted makeup editing tools
- Add subtle touches like freckles or eye color changes
- Enhance specific features while keeping it looking natural
- Level up with special photo effects like sparkles
From virtual try-on to real-life glam
Here's where it gets really interesting - our users are revolutionizing their salon visits. Before even sitting in the makeup chair, they're using Facetune to show their MUAs exactly what they want. Think of it as a mood board, but better. Instead of bringing in a celeb photo that might not work with your features, you can show your artist exactly how different looks work on your actual face.
"I used to struggle explaining what kind of eye look I wanted," shares one user. "Now I just play around with different styles in Facetune and show my makeup artist my favorite. It's like having a virtual consultation before the real thing!"
