How to Brighten Face in Photoshop

How To Whitening Skin In Photoshop
Here is a tutorial on how to whitening the skin or Brighten Face in Photoshop. The first step is to duplicate the Background layer and then make a selection using your favorite selection tool. For this tutorial, I will use the Quick Selection Tool and Lasso Tool. After finished making the selection, create a mask. Furthermore, please apply the adjustment levels, curves, hue/saturation, black & white, and color balance, to get a natural and white skin color. To remove color on the eyebrows you can use the Brush Tool.

Step 1: Make Selection

After opening photo using File> Open, duplicate background layer by choosing Layer>Duplicate Layer. Then make a selection on the skin using a selection tool. I will use the Quick Selection Tool. Finally, create a mask by choosing Layer> Layer Mask> Reveal Selection. For this Photoshop tutorial, I'll use this image that I downloaded from Pixabay


Step 2: Create a Levels Adjustment

Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Levels. Adjust the level slider to get a whiter skin color.

Step 3: Create a Curves Adjustment

Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Curves. Adjust the curves to look for natural skin color that is not too bright.

Step 4: Create a Hue Saturation Adjustment

Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Hue Saturation. Adjust the Saturation slider to get skin color that is not too sharp.

Step 5: Create Black & White Adjustment

Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Black & White. Set the blending mode to Luminosity. Set opacity to the value of approximately 35%. Black & White is needed to color the skin look smoother.

Step 6: Create a Color Balance Adjustment

Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Color Balance.

Step 7: Group All Layers

While pressing the Shift key, click on all layers except the Background, then the group layer by choosing Layer> Group Layer.

Step 8: Clean Up Incorrect Color On Eyebrows

Click on Brush Tool icon. Press D to reset the foreground color/background to default. 

Click-drag mouse on the eyebrows.

Step 9: Adjust Curves For Hair

Click on the background layer. Create a selection on the hair using Quick selection tool. Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Curves. Please adjust the curves so the hair looks a little brighter.
