Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?
You!
Have you ever been without a mirror and need to make those last minute touch ups? Well, if you have an iPhone, iPad or even an iPod Touch, fear no more.*
The Smart Mirror App makes putting on your makeup, or checking to make sure it’s just right, easy!
Once you hold the mirror away from your face for a few seconds, it recognizes you’re facial features. Touch the lips button and Smart Mirror zooms in on your lips, making it easier to see if your lipstick is on evenly.

If you’re terrible at putting on eye makeup like me, this will really save you some trouble. Smart Mirror also has a zoom feature on your eyes, so that putting on eye makeup is a little easier.

You might think that having the small screen of your iPhone be tricky, but even when you set your phone down, the Smart Mirror can still zoom in from farther away. I imagine it is a lot easier on an iPad, but at that point, you might as well just carry a full size mirror around with you.

And if you’re really feeling pretty, Smart Mirror can also take your picture and save it to your camera.
*Compatible with iPhones and iPods equipped with front-facing cameras only such as iPhone4 and iPhone4S. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.
