DISAPPOINTED! [Posted on 2000-06-14]
My 12-year old expected more flexibility in makeover possibilities. Installation was easy enough, but the "graphic-only" menu was difficult to interpret. Color choices are limited to the provided pallette, facial and hair designs are similarly restricted, and digital images are awkward to import, and more complicated to size and position properly for the makeover. (Perhaps having the Barbie digital camera would streamline the process.) The instruction book is of little or no value. Interest in the product lasted about 2 hours, and the software was quickly back in the box under the printer. Another lesson learned.
Surprisingly good program [Posted on 2001-02-23]
I bought this product to do a review, and I was pleasantly surprised. The cursor problem can be quickly fixed by calling the support number, and once you reference the instruction book (which doubles as the cd cover), everything is pretty self explanatory. I do not support the previous review--the mixing screen allows you to develop ANY kind of makeup shades you want. With an hour or two of playing with it, it worked quite smoothly. However, because the buttons are pictures and there are no words on the program, be sure to reference the instructions. Have fun!

This is my favorite Barbie game I have! You can put your picture in the game and then give yourself new hairdoes and makeup! You can also make new makeup! The only bad things are it's really are to get your picture to look normal. Sometimes it gives you one eye on your cheek or two chins. And you don't have very many hairdoes to pick from. You can't do ponytails, braids, or straight hair with bangs. (And that's what my air looks like.) You also can't change your skin or eye color.
I think it would be fun to put my cat's picture in it and put makeup on him!
VERY COOL [Posted on 2005-05-24]
Well when I saw it on the computer I fell in love with "Barbie Digital Makeover" I bought it right away. It is the best game ever.I play with it when friends come over. They think it's so much fun. Some people get disapointed because you get 2 chins but that's just a part of the Fun!!!You should see the makeover I give to my pets."Barbie Boutique" is one of it's main competitors but still "Barbie Boutique" CANNOT make makeovers for yourself. I think that since the mattel company improved over the last couple of years they should make a "Barbie Digital Makeover 2" It would be an entertainment to the whole family (including dads and brothers) for months. In conclusion buy this game and you and your child will be happy forever because if your childs happy your happy.
