Computer Cum Makeup Artist

Ever wish you had your own personal makeup artist? That dream could soon be a reality with a computer that scans your face and suggests the perfect personalized makeup combination.

Technology that takes a 3D image of your face and measures your complexion, shadows and lines could help you with your makeup: “The technology, showcased at CeBIT, the world’s biggest high-tech fair, takes a 3D image of your face and measures your complexion, shadows and lines. Specially designed computer software then matches your face to 60 pre-programmed models and advises how much makeup should be applied to which parts of your face based on professional make-overs conducted on the models.”
