Magik Face is an AI photo studio built around one idea. You teach it your face, and then it makes that face look like whatever you want: a glossy portrait, an anime character, a moody editorial shot or a short animated clip. If you’ve got a folder of dodgy bathroom-mirror selfies and you’ve always wondered what a proper photographer would’ve done with them, this is the tool for you. It also skips the monthly subscription. You buy Rubies when you want them and spend them when you feel like it, which I rate for anyone who creates in bursts rather than every night.
Quick expectation-setting so you don’t show up for the wrong thing: this is more “make me look incredible” than “make me explicit content”. It lives in the image-to-image and image-to-video corner of the adult AI world. For what it’s actually built to do, it’s a fun, low-commitment toy.
What Magik Face looks like when you land
The homepage leads with its pitch: “AI MAGIK for Your Best Self”. Right under that is a before-and-after strip. On the left are the unfiltered snaps (casual iPhone shots, the classic bathroom mirror), and on the right the polished versions with better lighting, tone balance and framing. The big button says “Create my first AI image”, with a little note that it’s free to try and takes ten seconds. There’s no maze of menus. You’re one click from your first result.
Scroll down and the “AI Toolbox” section breaks out what’s inside. It covers AI model training on your photos, HQ video generation “with expressive animations”, and a styles library the site describes as hundreds of looks. The pricing blocks say “100+ Styles + Loras”. Both realistic and anime output are on the menu. Turning yourself into an anime character is one of the headline tricks, and honestly it’s the one I’d go for first, because it’s the most fun.
The site says 100,000+ creators are using it. There’s an affiliate program in the footer, a Discord link, and an FAQ that covers the questions you’d actually ask: how fast training is, whether video is included, whether Rubies or trained models expire, and whether it works on mobile.
How the model training works
This is the clever bit and the reason to pick Magik Face over a plain prompt box. Instead of hoping a generic model makes something that looks vaguely like you, you upload a set of your own photos and it trains a custom model on them. The pricing cards call it “2-Min Fast Training”. So the promise is you feed it your selfies, wait a couple of minutes, and you’ve got a personal model you can reuse.
From there the flow the site lays out is simple. You pick a style from the library, enter a prompt, and get an image “in seconds”. Want a studio headshot? Pick that. A painted look, a cinematic scene or a full anime version of yourself? Same idea, different style. The meta description is careful to promise “consistent characters”, which is exactly what training a personal model is meant to deliver. Whether your face survives the tenth style swap as well as the first is the question no homepage can answer, and it’s the one that decides whether you’ll keep coming back.
Video is the other half. You take an image and animate it into a short clip, which is where the NSFW image-to-video tools category comes in. Magik Face sits at the foot of that ranking, and the reason is simple. Video is a bonus feature bolted onto a portrait studio, not the main event. If moving clips are the whole reason you’re shopping, DeepX is built far more squarely around adult images and video.
The site also mentions retraining your model. That’s handy if your first batch of photos was a bit samey and you want to give it better source material.
Rubies, packs and which one to grab
Magik Face runs on Rubies, a credit currency, and the site makes a point of it: “Flexible credit system - only pay for what you create, no subscriptions.” There are four packs, and every one of them includes AI model training, HQ video generation, the 100+ styles and LoRAs, and the fast training. The difference is simply how many Rubies you get. Try It gives you 50 Rubies and is pitched as “best for a quick test drive”. Casual gives you 200. Elite gives you 500 and wears the “Most Popular” badge. Then there’s a Power Pack for agencies and heavy users with 5,000 Rubies. Nothing is locked behind a higher tier, which I like a lot. The cheap pack gets the same toys as the big one.
My advice as a mate: do the free first image, and if you smile at the result, buy Try It rather than jumping straight to Elite. The public page doesn’t list how many Rubies a training run, an image or a video costs. So the small pack is how you find out your own burn rate before committing. If you end up using it weekly, Elite is where the bigger packs usually get more generous per Ruby. The Power Pack is only for people turning out content by the bucket. Overall it sits at the friendly end of the category for trying something out, because there’s no monthly charge ticking away in the background.
Good to know before you start
Use good source photos. The whole thing runs on the model it trains from your pictures, so give it a decent spread: different angles and lighting, clear shots of your face. The two-minute training is only as good as what you feed it, and a retrain costs you Rubies you’d rather spend on output.
Try the anime conversions and styles before the video. Images are the core of the tool and where the styles library does its work. Once you’ve found a look you love, animate that one, rather than spraying Rubies on video of experiments.
Read the FAQ on Rubies expiry. The site has a dedicated answer to “Do Rubies expire?” and “Do trained models expire?”. Skim those before buying a bigger pack so you know how long your balance and your trained model stick around. The web app is the main home. The site also mentions the App Store and has a Discord if you like hanging out with other users.
If you want a harder-edged generator instead, the wider AI porn generators ranking has plenty that are built for that. FreeMode.ai is a good one to look at for images, video and characters from a single prompt. Magik Face lands in the lower half of the AI porn image generators list and near the bottom of the NSFW image-to-image tools ranking. That’s mostly because it’s a selfie studio first and an adult tool second, not because it does its own job badly. You can read how we rank if you want the details.
Hit “Create my first AI image”, let it have a go at your face for free, and see if the glow-up is worth a handful of Rubies.
