Generating realistic makeup in a digital video stream

Abstract

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for rendering makeup products on a user's face within an augmented reality environment in real-time. For example, the disclosed system can use blend a base makeup color of a selected makeup product with extracted luminance frequencies of a video stream. The disclosed system can then convert the blended makeup color to LAB color space and apply one or more shader models to the lightness of the color based on a material of the selected makeup product. The disclosed system can also apply additional operations for smoothing the skin of the user and matching the makeup product to a skin tone of the user. The disclosed system can then display the makeup product and any additional changes in an augmented reality environment in the video stream.
