Original pictures and renderings
Video pictures generally have characteristics such as low pixels, heavy color casts, and many noise spots.
Therefore, when processing, we must first adjust the color cast. First of all, look at this picture. The color is yellowish and dry, which shows that MM’s skin is very poor.
In this way, we can see the steps. First, we need to correct the color cast, and then we need to polish the skin.
1. Duplicate a layer, Image-----Adjustment-----Auto Color (Auto Contrast, Auto Level----choose these two yourself, use your own eyes to identify the effect)
The effect is not like this after automatic color. Some curves and saturation adjustments are added here. However, I forgot how to adjust it, haha. That’s the idea. Everyone can adjust it appropriately according to their own feelings.)
2. Start microdermabrasion. If you don’t know how to microdermabrasion, the simple method is to use a blur tool to avoid the eyebrows and apply it. Here I will talk about a medium-difficulty adjustment method that is easier to control.
Click the Quick Mask tool
Stipple brush tool, color black.
Apply on MM's face, avoiding hair, eyebrows, eyes, mouth, nostrils and both sides of nose
There is a problem to pay attention to here. On the edge, you need to reduce the transparency of the brush so that the effect will not be too hard. So as not to wear it out at the end, like a mask.
Use the eraser tool to erase the wrong places.
Remove. After checking the uniformity, exit the mask, and a selection will appear, feathering the 2-phase pixels. Invert selection CTRL+J
At this time, MM’s face will appear in a new layer. Do you feel it’s scary? Beauty’s painted skin /////
Filter---Blur---Gaussian Blur, haha, MM has become beautiful, the numerical value, you can see for yourself, the effect is very intuitive, if it feels fake, adjust it a little bit smaller, if you like a more dreamy feeling, just make it a little bigger . Not much to say here.
3. Then start modifying MM’s facial features.
Then adjust MM's eyes. To adjust eyes, you mainly use tools such as burn, dodge, black brush, and sharpen.
Enlarge MM's eyes. Use the dodge tool
Repeatedly click on the white part of the eyes, remembering to lower the value. It's easier to master this way. You can zoom in and out repeatedly to see the effect to avoid overshooting.
Use the burn tool
Click on the dark part of the eye (hey, I don’t know what to call it, pupil?). If the MM’s eyes are small, you can appropriately enlarge the dark part of the eye, so that the effect of big eyes can be achieved.
Create a new layer and use a black brush (transparency no more than 30%) to draw MM’s eyeliner and eyelashes. Girls who know how to put on makeup must know how to apply eyeliner and mascara, so I won’t go into details. If your male compatriots don’t know how to draw, , just enlarge your eyes, little by little.
After painting, adjust the transparency of the eyelash layer appropriately and it will look natural.
Then use the dodge tool to draw highlights on the inner part of the eye (suddenly I remembered that the black part in the Northeast is called the inner part of the eye). The highlight point can make MM's eyes look watery, and then use the sharpening tool
Make eyelashes and eyebrows appropriately sharpened. It will be very three-dimensional.
Huhu, here comes the mouth repair.
Use the lock or pen tool to select MM's mouth, feather it into 2-phase pixels, and increase the saturation appropriately. My lips are missing too much color, so I use the smudge tool.
Painted it a bit,
Use color balance to adjust the color, because I wanted to create a cute effect, so I used peach.
In the areas I drew, I used the Dodge Tool to highlight.
Use the sharpening tool to briefly sharpen it.
If you think the picture is dark, you can create a new layer and change the mode to Screen.
This is basically enough, but I think MM's face is relatively pale, so I decided to put some cute blush on her.
The choice of blush color is very important. It is best to choose a color that is similar to your lips, otherwise the two colors on your face will feel like a palette.
Create a new blank layer. Use the brush tool to click two circles on MM's smiling muscles.
So cute,
Select Filter-----Blur----Gaussian Blur, adjust the value yourself, it is very intuitive, and you can also match the transparency of the layer.
I painted a light eye shadow here. The method is to create a new layer, change the mode to color, and just apply it.
This is basically done. Adjust the curves, saturation, and sharpening tools in the filter according to your own taste.
If it feels dark, copy a layer and change the mode to Screen. If it feels lighter, change it to Soft Light.
In a word, personal tastes are different, adjust according to your own preferences, beauty is in everyone's heart
Add some text, or paint it with a silk or pattern brush, and design it yourself.
There are a lot of pattern brushes in the material library. You can use them yourself. If you don’t have money, just reply more and you will get them. Haha
Completed picture:
Done and call it a day
Although I dare not say that every girl is beautiful, but every girl has her own most beautiful side
Sometimes I come across some pictures that I don’t know how to fix, but after I actually fix them, the results are often amazing.
Lao Mao, I am not a professional designer. If it is makeup, I would be more professional. What I write is inevitably a bit too simple.
