Edit Selfie

Hello guys,

I was wondering how do I edit the selfie images quickly?

I am seeing all those fancy looking girls on Instagram that in reality look terrible (I meet them every day) but I have no clue how they do that?

Are there any simple filters and such that you can apply to the photo in order to look "gorgeous"?

Thank you

I agree. Make sure you start with high resolution, well lit and good images!

There is no one filter that will help you edit selfies.  But once you learn the basics you will be able to create some great images.

And... after you get well practiced you will be able to rock the editing!

Here are some helpful links that I found....

I actually had fun looking these up!  I am guessing there are several influencers in beauty and fashion who have shared their editing tips!

I think you will have a lot of fun learning the various techniques that they use.

Hi jugoslavcc,

Well, there are certain filters available in Instagram which can quickly edit you image in a calculated way. On some images you need to increase the brightness, decrease the contrast and so on. Are you looking to edit images in Photoshop?

You can use the 3rd party skin retouching filters for Photoshop to quickly edit the selfie's or any other portrait images.

Here's the video tutorial: How to retouch skin in Photoshop cc 2017/2018 - YouTube

Regards,

Thank you for the tutorial but I am more interested in filters/plugins that you can use without being very good at photoshop.

In other words, could you recommend me a good plugin for selfies? Thank you again
