How to make glowing eyes in Photoshop?
Ok, so this is going to be an ultra-simple tutorial for making this image. It can add a lot of sexy and elegant yet creepy effects to any of your family photos, so since it’s a quick and easy tut, I sincerely recommend you try it out.
We used a picture of Amy Lee, so for a start, you need to get some photos to work with, though don’t forget that you need someone with light eyes, it won’t work well enough on brown/black eyes.. discrimination, I know.
You can take the picture of Amy Lee that we used as her eyes are really bright.
Duplicate the layer.
Select the upper layer and go to Hues / Saturation and fully reduce the colors of the upper layer.
Select the eraser tool, very small with a sharp edge, we used 5px but u may want to work with even smaller size.
Erase the upper (black n’ white) layer from the inside of the eye. Don’t touch the white area of the eye.
So u will get something like this…
Now to the interesting part.
Select the upper (colorless) layer again, and go to Brightness / Contrast.
The idea is to reduce both Contrast and Brightness dramatically so that the face won’t be anything but a background anymore.
you will get something like this (feel free to play with the settings; depending on the photo, maybe you will need less or more brightness or contrast)
For the final touch, select the layer below (colored) and go to Hue / Saturation. We will add a bit of contrast so that the eyes won’t be that “pale” anymore and will blend in better…
That’s it. I hope u liked this glowing eyes Photoshop tutorial. Do you know of any other way how to make glowing eyes in Photoshop?
oww, was it that simple?
Nice tutorial, nice outcome and easy to follow

Here’s my try at it: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/47333354/
I didn’t want to upload it because I think the image might be too big.
ALSO, while the tut doesn’t work with Brown eyes, you can allways change the eye color.
Great tut.
