You Will Need (1 thing)

  • Gimp

Steps (5 steps, 360 minutes)

  1. 1

    Choose a photo you would like to retouch. I picked this photo of: Adriana Lima with no makeup on. Its not a bad photo, but lets see if we can give it a boost!

  2. 2

    Pick the smudge brush and lightly go over her skin.
    Opacity of brush: should be anything under 12% or it will start to blur and look really bad.

    I lightly when over her skin making it more flawless

  3. 3

    Use your color picker tool and pick a color off her face. Then make a new layer. start to air brush her face. go around her eyes, eyebrows, and lips.

  4. 4

    Play with the layer settings. Here i picked color and lowered the layer opacity to 23%

  5. 5

    Finished. I stopped at Step 4 because the photo didn't need anything else. You can add lip stick, eye shadow, etc if you want.
