Some Considerations Before You Buy

I'm obviously a fan of the Opte Precision System, $599, but this wouldn't be a good review without weighing some of the cons. For me, there are two primary considerations you should keep in mind before buying: cost and your desired coverage level.

Regarding price, Opte digital makeup printer is anything but cheap. It costs $599, and you'll need to purchase refills in order to continue using the device. There's a refill membership that costs $40/month, which also isn't anything to shrug at. Alternatively, you can buy a refill kit for $129 and re-up as needed. Even if the device ends up replacing your foundation and concealer, it probably won't make up for the cost at the end of the day.

The second consideration is your desired coverage. Opte is exceptionally good at detecting discoloration and, over time, correcting it. The coverage ends up being very light and natural looking. If you prefer the look of full coverage or a more "made up" face, then you'll need to apply foundation and then go back in with the Opte printer to further conceal.

Final Thoughts

I'm super impressed with the Opte device, and I think it's an important step into a new, tech-savvy category of technology-meets-skincare-meets-makeup. It's costly, yes, and perhaps devices like these might become more affordable as time goes on. However, if you're a beauty junkie like me and are interested in exploring this new technology, I will tell you that the device lives up to its promises. It makes makeup easier for me, and I love knowing that it's doubling as skincare, too.
