Abstract: A system and method are capable of performing make-up virtual images obtained with portable devices with a digital camera. The method automatically detects points of interest (eyes, mouth, eyebrow, face contour) of the user's face image allowing the user to virtually apply make-up using fingers on a touch screen. Another algorithm was created to avoid “blurring” of make-up in the application from the user's fingers. The system allows the creation of virtual make-up faces with high accuracy. To carry out the virtual make-up, methods were created for automatically detecting points of interest in the facial image and enforcing transparency in the image to simulate the make-up and restrict the make-up application area within the region where the points of interest are found. The system allows testing cosmetics application in facial images to aid choosing colors of cosmetics before actually applying them.
