Editor's Picks : Makeover Magic On the Net

eMakeover's Makeover Central
>> http://www.emakeover.com/

If it's a funky or ultra hip new look you want, you might do well to give this site a miss. But if all you want is a little fun trying on fairytale hairstyles like Goldilocks golden curls or cute sailor caps, go on, click onto this site, if only just for laughs. Otherwise eMakeover's selection of hairstyles veers on the dated and its makeup range is restricted to a limited selection of lipsticks. What's cool though, is that you get to try on dramatic coloured contact lenses and a whole range of sunglasses from eMakeover's own range as well as Ray-Ban and Revo that you can actually purchase online.

Cool features
Models - Like Changes Live, you can upload your own photo to experiment with. Otherwise, you can take your pick from their 7 models, including a male. Perhaps because this' an Asian site, there are more Asian faces to 'play' with.

Email - We liked the email feature that enables users to send their new look to friends as an attachment. I, for one, have a good mind to shock my friends with my new 'ah-lian' look.

Makeup and hairstyles - The good thing about this site is that you can actually purchase some of the items you try out in your makeover sessions, since they are actual products sold in the market. We also how the site features a constantly updated collection of hairstyles actually designed by stylists in Taipei salons.

Lip job - Ever coveted Julia Robert's wide grin or Angelina Jolie bee-stung pout? Now you can find out if their famous lips look just as good on you. Use the site's cool grid tool to redefine your lips any way you want. We promise you'll get more than a few laughs.
