Frosted Glass Effect

Blur a Photo Like Bathroom Glass.

Loading…

Frosted glass doesn't blur evenly. It scatters light, so shapes and colors stay roughly in place while every detail is broken up. That's why it hides a face better than a soft blur of the same strength.

The frosting slider sets how far the pixels are scattered. Add blur behind the glass for a thicker pane, and a white tint for the milky look of real frosted panels.

Frequently asked questions

Is frosting safe for hiding private information?

Strong frosting with blur hides detail well. For anything sensitive, cover it with a solid box instead.

How is it different from a normal blur?

A blur smooths. Frosting scatters, which leaves a grainy texture.

Can I frost only part of the picture?

This tool treats the whole picture.

Is the pattern random each time?

No. The same settings give the same result.
