SRY I CANT ADD A PSD FILE, BECAUSE IT IS TOO BIG, ALSO IF I MADE IT IN A ZIP. SORRY.

Remember, I was a bit drunk, when I did this

Hey everyone.
As I already told, -Here- I will show you how to "Photo Retouch".At first, there are different ways, some are really difficult, but I will show here a EASY way to do it. And what I really don't like in "Photo Retouch" is, that most beginners make this retouch and you know, it really looks not real, so please let retouch look realistic!I will show you how to do.
You can use this methodes for every picture.

I will use exactly the same picture like where I said to write this tutorial.Download this picture Here

At first, open the picture in Photoshop.
Now(I do it with every picture) duplicate this background layer.
Now watch the picture. What do you have to change?

I really don't like this little thing over her right(we have it left) eye.
So select your "Spot Healing Brush Tool".
Just go over this little thing and click.



WOW this has been removed completly! With clicking one time. So this tool is very useful.(You can remove this little hairs over her eye -but you don't really have to- with the same methode.)


Now we`re lucky, her skin is already smooth enough, I think, because now it looks really real, if you change her skin to really smooth, nothing just smooth, it won't look very real.So just stay with that.

Ok, what now?
Let's change her lips to a better color!There are different ways to do it, but I will do it with the "Burn Tool and the Dodge Tool".
Ok duplicate this layer you got again.
Select your "Burn Tool".
Use a normal brush and set the hardness to "0".Now just go over her lips.



Now select your "Dodge Tool". Again use a normal brush and set the hardness to "0". Just go over her under lip just to let it look at bit glossy.(Yeah I know, I could let her lips look a bit more smoother, but this maybe in another tutorial)



Your picture can now look like this.(Maybe decrese the opactity to something about 70-80)



What now?
I will change her Eye color to a blue(most people like this, but I really like green, too) Again, don't make her eyes to unrealistic!

Make a new layer and name this "Eyecolor"
Select a nice light blue.Maybe 15bac4
Select a normal brush again, hardness to 100% and choose a size of her eyes, so just that what you want gets blue.Click one time over every eye.
Now set the blend mode to "Overlay" or "Color"
Don't forget to decrease the opacity to about 85-90, to let it look more realistic.
You can erase the blue you don't need.

After you got the eyes you can have sth like this.



Let her hair look a bit better.
Make a new layer, and name itHair
Use a brush, hardness "0" and a darker color, about 3e0e0e(or what color you want: maybe 214615) and brush over her hair.-Or use both-



Set the blend mode to Soft LightOpacity, about 50%.

Oh we forget the little extra Make Up.
Her eyelashes are great already(There will come a tutorial how to create them).
But how about a little Eyeshadow?

New layer, "Eyeshadow"
Select the color you want, I use ba01fd
Brush a bit over her eyes, set the opacity to about 37% and erase the things you don't need.

Let's make her eyes again a bit better.
Use a black brush(Flow to about 55%) and brush around her eyes!
NOW Select your SMUDGE TOOL.(Strenght: 35%)
Make this like in the image.Just go over the black with up and down.(Difficult to explain^^)



Then set the opacity to 37%(Sorry for this picture, i made this desktop screenshot, when the picture was at 150 % or something like that, that's because it isn't really sharp)

You can do so much with this programm, but I will finish this tutorial here, but this is just a tutorial, so there are a lot more things you can do.

final image.
