Find the Magic Wand Tool near the top of the Tool Bar and click and hold down the cursor until all the tools hidden under the Magic Wand Tool become visible in the drop down menu. Make sure you have chosen the Magic Wand Tool, and not the Quick Selection Tool. Now use this tool to select the colored part of the eyes of your photo.
Hold down the Shift key to add to your selection, or the Alt key to take away from a selection as in the image below.
Once you have selected the color of the eyes now choose Image-Adjustments- Hue/Saturation and play around with the sliders ’til the eye color is much different. Use the magic wand tool and Image- Adjustments- Hue / Saturation to change the color, saturation, and/ or the Lightness of the following:
-
eyes
-
lips
-
hair
-
skin
- clothing
- eyebrows
