Tan the Completely Safe Way in Photoshop Elements

I particularly liked this one in conjunction with the Lighten Skin tones Smart Brush.

Create a Spray Tan Effect Like the Photoshop Elements Smart Brush

  • Select the area that you want to tan
  • Add a Photo Filter Adjustment Layer by clicking on the half-black half-white circle near the top of the Layers Palette
  • Double click on the Adjustment Layer Thumbnail to open the Photo Filter Dialogue box.  Double click on the Color square and type 5a3c06 in the # field of the Select Filter Color box.
  • Adjust the Density to 50% and make sure that there is a check in the Preserve Luminosity box.  Hit OK.
  • Change the blending mode of this layer to Soft Light and adjust opacity as needed.
