- Open the image you want to edit in Photoshop.

- Now hold down the Alt key and click on an area near a freckle. You use it to copy the "clean" section of skin to lay it over the freckles.
- With the stamp created in this way, click on the freckle. Depending on the preset size, you may have to click on a freckle several times to completely cover it.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 for all freckles you want to work on. Make sure that you create a new stamp in the vicinity. So you adjust the shade to the picture and the skin does not become blotchy.
