Facebetter is a realtime beauty filter for OBS Studio. Skin, face shape, makeup, color filters, stickers, body, and background are processed on this computer. It does not affect the whole OBS window by itself. Add Facebetter Beauty to the source you want, and the sliders in the side panel start working. A camera, image, or video source all work. Mac install steps are in Install on Mac. After install, sign-in and adjustments are the same on both systems: Sign in and add the filter. Before you start:
  • Windows 10 or Windows 11, 64-bit.
  • OBS Studio 28 or later, 64-bit.

Keep the data folder next to bin. It holds locales and resources. Open OBS, then sign in and add the filter.
