One major plus for YouCAM is the fact only store onto your phone and your camera roll, rather than onto a server for the app. I only knew this myself by downloading the app and taking a personal look at the features, as I do with all of the apps I review.Ĭoupled with the generic dangers of a chat system if not used and monitored correctly, this kind of app is well known to cause self-esteem issues if overused and not educated correctly around the uses of makeup and the “perfect picture”. YouCAM Makeup and how it is advertised doesn’t strike you as an app that will have a chat system, but in fact, it does. What should I be worried about on YouCAM Makeup? This kind of app has revolutionized the makeup industry in some respects as you can virtually try on branded makeup like L’Oreal for free to see if you like it. You can virtually ‘try on’ makeup to see if you like how it looks on you before you go and buy it. Coupled with this, it is also a very popular app around YouTube which tends to be how new users hear about it. The app is incredibly popular in countries such as China, and with such a low age restriction is an appeal to a young age group.
