YouCam Perfect has a wide selection of beautifying tools for the perfect selfie or portrait. You don't need to be a Photoshop pro.

One of the easiest ways to do this is to select the Auto feature, where you can choose to have several different looks such as fresh-faced, youthful, or sun-kissed, to name just a few. You can change the shape of your lips without having to do Botox injections. Brighten your eyes, remove blemishes, and even tune or reshape your body with the new Body Tuner tool.

If you’d like to change the background, the app can recognize which part of the image is the main subject (great for changing the background on selfies!) so you can place yourself just about anywhere your heart desires.
