Google Photos\u2019 image editor is getting new touch-up tools to allow users to apply subtle edits and fixes, Google announced<\/a> on Monday. You can use the new tools to remove blemishes, refine skin texture, brighten eyes, whiten teeth, and more. <\/p>\n You can access the touch-up tools by selecting a face in a photo, then choosing which tool you want to use: heal, smooth, under eyes, irises, teeth, eyebrows, or lips. Once you choose a tool, you can adjust the intensity of the effect.<\/p>\n The new touch-up tools are gradually rolling out globally in the Google Photos app on Android devices with at least 4 GB RAM and Android 9.0 and up.<\/p>\n By launching its own touch-up tools, Google is likely hoping that people will stay within Google Photos when editing their images instead of navigating to a third-party app to do so. <\/p>\n It\u2019s worth noting that studies<\/a> have shown<\/a> that constantly retouching photos may be harmful and lead to negative emotions, low self-esteem, or body image issues. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
