Saw a viral Instagram reel showing dreamy photo effects in Photoshop. (@timhosqo) Thought: "Why not make this instant?" Built DreamyGlow in 2,5 days with Lovable AI and cursor. Upload, apply blur/glow/CRT effects, export in 4K no Photoshop needed. Free or $29.99 lifetime, no subscription. There is an interractive demo on the website and free uploads, go create something!

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Jeremy, and I'm excited to share my first project on PH : DreamyGlow! THE STORY Three days ago, I was scrolling Pinterest and stumbled upon an Instagram reel showing how to create dreamy photo effects in Photoshop (yes, on Pinterest) . The result was stunning and right then, seeing that reel after days of thinking about Rexan Wong’s breakthrough with Textbehindimages felt like fate. I thought: "Lets try this" So I opened Lovable AI and typed my first prompt ever on it. 98 messages later, DreamyGlow was live. WHAT IS DREAMYGLOW? Upload any photo. Apply professional dreamy effects with 1 click: • Glow effect (that Instagram aesthetic) • CRT effect (vintage screen vibes) • Starlight effect (IDK ish magic) • Intensity controls (fine-tune everything) Export in 4K quality. No Photoshop skills needed. HOW I BUILT IT - Started: Oct 30, 6:03 PM - Shipped: Nov 2, 11:54 AM - Time: 3 days (mostly evenings) - Tools: Lovable AI (98 prompts) + Cursor for polish and my brain for design - Stack: React, Supabase, Canvas API The entire effect engine runs client-side in the browser using Canvas API. No server processing = instant results. PRICING I hate subscriptions. So: • Free: 4 exports forever • Lifetime: $29.99 one-time (Early Bird, usually $49.99) → Unlimited exports, 4K quality, no watermark, forever No renewal. No hidden fees. Pay once, create forever. WHO IS IT FOR? - Instagram creators wanting that dreamy aesthetic - Photographers adding artistic flair to portfolios - Brands creating eye-catching social content - Anyone who wants Photoshop results without Photoshop I'D LOVE YOUR FEEDBACK This is my first "built in 3 days" project, and I'm curious: 1. What effects would you add next? 2. Is $29.99 lifetime fair, or too high/low? 3. Would you use this for personal or professional work? 4. Is it cool? Worth the buy of a domain? (And I might look for creators that would want their work with effects on my landing page) Try 4 free exports now: https://dreamyglow.lovable.app Thanks for checking it out! 🚀 P.S. The Instagram reel that inspired this: https://www.instagram.com/p/DNGA...

So cool. Cant wait to see this evolve. Feels like a less complex tool than say MidJourney for the folks who may not want to have to go through all that effort is needed. Sorta like how Canva made design accessible to normal non creative folks.

@adam_perlis Thanks so much, Adam! That’s exactly what I was aiming for, making this effect super accessible in just a few clicks. I’m already thinking about adding more effects soon, I have a bunch of ideas for the next steps. For now it’s really just the MVP, but there’s more to come!
