Choose your editing mode

You will have two options: auto mode and manual mode.

Auto mode

In auto mode, select Other from the list of objects and a prompt box will appear where you have to describe the area clearly.

Select the color using the preset panel or click the palette icon to enter a custom hex code.

Click Generate to apply the new color.

This process should cost one credit for nonsubscribers.

For a full makeover beyond eyes, you can also change your hairstyle in photos with AI.

Manual mode

If you are not satisfied with the result of the auto mode, switch to manual mode.

Use the Brush tool to paint directly over the eyes and adjust the brush size for accuracy.

Use the Eraser tool to clean up the edges.

Choose your desired color or enter a hex code.

Click Generate once you finish your selection.

When you are happy with the result, click Download to save the image to your device.

Tips for better results

Zoom in for precise manual brush work.

Use a custom hex code for exact shades, which is great for matching real life eye colors.

Try both modes and compare the results for best accuracy.
