How to Remove Acne/ Blemishes
If you are reading this blog it means you want to learn Photoshop the easy way…
Sure you can just go on youtube and see videos about it but people use terms like layers or feathering etc… And you say what the heck are they talking about well I’m your solution the simple way out and if my tutorials seem unclear to you in any way please feel free to let me know. By the time you’ve done my tutorials you’ll know Photoshop like your ABC’s.
How To Removing Acne/ Blemishes
Step 1: Open the picture you want to work on. Now once you have that open go to your toolbar and click on the clone stamp tool or Shift + S… The tool that you clicked on should look like this:
You have your picture open and the clone stamp tool clicked on…
Step2: Now zoom in on the area(s) that you want to fix. You can do this by clicking on the zoom slider and moving it to the right to zoom in on the area of your desire or press Ctrl and + on your keyboard.
Step3: Click on Brush and scroll down and double-click on 45 soft round pixel brush.
Step4: Still having your clone stamp tool selected… hold down Alt and click on an area that is clear of blemishes or acne now let go. (Note: when you click on the clear area and click on the acne area it clones the clear area you clicked on earlier, you may have to reset(Alt + left click) the destination of the clear area several times to avoid cloning unwanted areas) Alt + left click on hold should look like this: 
Now click on the spot you want to fix (you may have to also click around the spot until you can’t see it anymore to blend it in)
For Example:
And continue throughout the picture….
P.S. To zoom out press Ctrl and – and also do not drag the clone stamp tool it will blurr the area and that would lose it’s pixels
