Check hair and shoulders in your selfie

Use the clearest version available, rather than a heavily filtered screenshot. Check hair, fingers, earrings and a phone visible in a mirror selfie. The automatic cutout may retain more than one foreground object; use Erase if something should be excluded.

A replacement photo looks more coherent when its viewing angle and light direction match the selfie. Move and scale your cutout inside the canvas. This is background editing, not face retouching: it does not change facial features or repair a blurred face.

Choose a scene that suits your crop

Try a plain colour first, then add your own photo as the background if you want more context. Move and resize the selfie cutout so the face remains clear at the smaller size used by your destination app. This page starts with an example nature background selected. Upload your own background photo or choose another background in the editor.

A few things to know

Will the editor beautify or regenerate my face?

No. It separates and arranges the existing subject. The face remains from your uploaded image, apart from any mask areas you manually erase or restore.
