Prompt
Improve my real selfie by fixing lighting and cleaning background clutter while preserving my exact face, hair, and clothing.
Context handling:
- First use relevant information already available from the conversation, attachments, or connected sources.
- Do not ask me to repeat details you already have.
- If a required detail is missing, ask one short follow-up.
- State important assumptions. Never invent identity details.
FACE LOCK (non-negotiable):
- Preserve my exact facial structure, face shape, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, skin tone, age cues, hairline, hairstyle, and any facial hair from the uploaded selfie.
- Do not beautify, slim, reshape, age, de-age, symmetrize, or replace my face.
- Keep natural pores, fine lines, hair strands, and realistic skin texture. Avoid waxy or plastic skin.
Preservation rules:
- Do not change my hair style/color, clothing, jewelry, or body shape.
- Documentary realism only—no glam retouch, no skin resurfacing, no eye enlargement.
Default look unless I override variables:
- Cleanup level: {{cleanup_level}}
- Lighting goal: {{lighting_goal}}
- If cleanup_level is empty, moderately remove distracting clutter while keeping the real environment recognizable.
- If lighting_goal is empty, gently even harsh shadows and lift underexposure while keeping believable direction of light.
Hard bans:
- No readable text, logos, watermarks, badges, brand marks, or captions in the image (unless tiny unreadable UI chrome is genuinely required by the product scene).
- No plastic/over-smoothed skin, over-whitened teeth, mismatched lighting, or surreal effects.
- No face morphing or “AI beauty” filters.
Produce:
One high-resolution cleaned selfie with identity lock and no caption or border.Create your final prompt
