I took a pretty good picture after I had just been out in the sun but I had raccoon eyes from having sunglasses on. Great pic and would love to use it as my profile pic on social media but these white circles around my eyes stand out. |

Welcome to the forum, this technique will have to be adjusted with masks and perhaps cloning/healing.
Culled from this thread: Tan Lines
New curves adjustment layer.
Select the layer, not the mask.
Select the white point eyedropper tool, double click to go into choosing a default white point, and pick a colour in the image that is the tanned part.
Confirm that you want to change the default white point.
Now click white point eyedropper tool once to choose it, and select the light portion of the skin.
Mask as needed.

As dumb as this sounds I didn't realize this forum was exclusively for Adobe Photoshop....how much can I get this software for, is there a free trial version? Is there other less expensive software I could accomplish the same thing with? Thanks! |
