I think looking at the examples on the website is important to understanding what this software does and does not do.

It works on my W7-64 machine, super easy to use. I also tried the batch option. I think I had better results adjusting each picture by itself.
It does "blend" in wrinkles and skin blemishes in faces but it also makes most faces seem as if it is .. less sharp, almost a blur with a monotone flatness that doesn't appear natural to me.

Is it valuable? Sure, If used with a light touch. But it is no match for most picture editors that give you more precise control at the expense of a few minutes more labor. If pictures are worth re-touching, I would take the time to use a tool with better results.

Best,
Amy

One of the biggest turn-offs is when poor grammar is used in the description of a product.
Please get the grammar right - beauty is a noun, so one cannot "beauty a portrait". The appropriate usage is "beautify" - the verb meaning "to improve appearance".

Extremely basic application. It changes just the brightness and contrast of the image. It has also a "skin recognition" algorithm, not selected by default, but I can't see any difference when it is enabled.

Furthermore, there are many problems.

The installation is unnecessarily complex. The main installer extracts Setup.exe and MSF.msi in C:\MagicSkin (ignoring the fact that it is forbidden to write to C:\), and you have to run MSF.msi to install the software. (Setup.exe is useless.) So, the user has to run an installer to copy another installer in a forbidden location, and use that second installer to install the program!

Big problem: this program requires to be run as administrator. Why? It's a very simple image editing software, that should never need to modify the system after its installation. Such programs should be banned.

There are also important limitations in the GUI. The program is extremely slow to do its work, and there is absolutely no way to show the original image (except as a ridiculously small thumbnail). So, without being able to compare the result with the original image, you have to assume that the result is correct, save it, and compare it with another program.

Finally, there is no way to save in another format than JPEG, and you cannot specify the JPEG compression ratio!

Conclusion: Just a little toy, badly written and badly designed. Selling that kind of program is a rip-off.

Installed on XP with no problems.
It's extremely basic.
Does what it says. Made the stubble on my sons face almost unnoticable.
The lack of any selection tools means its mainly good for Passport type photos. I've not got many of them!
It had trouble working with black and white and toned prints, so only really good for colour.
The 3 slide bars are the only tools but even these don't let you preview the effect, you have to wait for it to process your input.

Not something I'm going to keep.

Too bad, I prefer the "before" pictures in the examples.
I skip that one!
