I have adobe photoshop elements 15 and i bought it as a one time package that I downloaded onto my computer- why does it look so basic??? Also I cannot find the colour match option- where is it???? It looks like something from 2007 not 2017???

sumann9683650  wrote I have tried it with that dropper tool and it doesn't extract the colour like for like- it extracts what it thinks is a similar colour and I cannot find that colour match option in guided edits, how do I achieve this???

1. Go to Expert tab
2. Open both pictures so that you can see them side-by-side (2 up).
3. Activate the eye dropper tool and click on the lip with the color that you wish to capture. Your foreground color chip should change to this color.
4. On the destination picture, use the selection brush or the lasso tool to select the lips. (Probably best to do one lip at a time).
5. Place the selected lip on its own layer (CTRL+J)
6. Then, go to Edit>Fill selection>Contents>Use foreground color
7. Open a Hue/saturation adjustment layer above the layer with the lip and clip the adjustment layer to the layer with the lip below (CTRL+G). Work the hue/saturation/lightness sliders to fine-tune the color. You can adjust the layer opacity in the layers palette, if necessary.
8. Repeat for the other lip.

You may want to check that the resolution of both pictures is identical, or at least close. You can do that via Image>resize>image size and read the value in px.in.
