Eye Shadow / Eyeliner - Photoshop Tutorial
Adding make-up to a person's photograph is a great way to get an idea of how they would look with that make-up in real life. This is a great tool for make-up artists, as well as photoshop artists in general. In this tutorial, we'll take a step-by-step look into the process of adding eye shadow and eyeliner to a person's photograph using Photoshop. Then we'll learn to adjust the coloring of the make-up to get different looks.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Open in Photoshop a photograph of a person. Make sure that photograph is one where the eyes are clearly visible and easy to work with.
2. Create a new layer and name it "Makeup".
3. Choose "black" from the Swatches palette.
4. Select the paint brush tool. Choose a brush size that is proportionate to the size of the eyes in the photograph. Make sure the opacity of the paint brush tool is set to 30%.
5. Begin painting the dark black of the eye shadow around each of the eyes. Since your paint brush is set to an opacity level, try to draw the eye shadow in one shot, meaning do not lift up on the mouse button once you start painting. This is so you can paint an even coat of eye shadow around the eyes.
6. Select the Smudge tool. Set the Strength settings to 35%. Now smudge the eye shadow coloring from Step 5 so that it blends nicely with the eyes.
7. Now for the eyeliner. Select the paint brush tool. Choose a smaller brush size that is proportionate to the lining around the eyes. Set the opacity of the paint brush tool to 70%.
8. With "black" still active as your color. Begin painting around the lining of the eyes.
9. Select the Smudge tool again. Keep it on the same settings as in Step 6 (Strength: 35%). Smudge the eyeliner in strokes going away from the eye, blending it outwards. Don't smudge too much or you will completely smudge away the eyeliner. Just smudge a little so it blends and doesn't stand out so much.
10. You're done. The person in your photograph should now have eye shadow and eyeliner.
11. To change the color of the eyeshadow and eyeliner, make sure that the "Makeup" layer is active. Then goto Image > Adjustments > Color Balance. Adjust the sliders until you get the color eyeshadow and eyeliner that you want.
