August 19, 2014 - CyberLink, the world leader in consumer multimedia software, is proud to announce that its selfie editing app, YouCam Perfect, has hit over 5 million downloads in the five months since it launched in March 2014. YouCam Perfect has ranked number one in several countries' app stores, with users generating hundreds of thousands of perfected selfies every day.
Building on the success of YouCam Perfect, CyberLink last week also released the latest in the beauty app family, YouCam Makeup. Using the same leading face detection and beautifying technology, YouCam Makeup lets users try out hundreds of natural-looking, fashionable makeover style and colour combinations.
Over 65% of YouCam Perfect users are females, and now with the companion app YouCam Makeup, women have the ultimate image beauty solution at their fingertips. "Our apps bring natural beauty and makeup together," said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. "App users can now improve skin quality with YouCam Perfect's real-time auto beautification, and then experiment with new makeup colours and styles in YouCam Makeup."
Selfies express individuality and identity, and YouCam Perfect offers users many ways to show their creativity with selfie videos, collages, and scene templates to add more originality to self-portraits quickly and easily. YouCam Perfect is also the only app with multi-face detection, allowing for enhancements not only on individual selfie shots but also on trending "usie" group selfies. Utilizing this pioneering technology, the newest feature Smart Collage automatically detects faces and intelligently positions photos for perfect placement in collages and scenes. Users then have the freedom to rearrange these photos with ease for a more personalized collage.
