2. Auto Focus.
The second method to blur your face in a photo on Canva is by using the Auto Focus tool.
This is a quicker method than the first, and is great because you can blur multiple parts of an image.
Plus, the blur looks more professional than the first method. However, I find that at times it’s not super accurate.
Here’s the step-by-step guide:
1. Upload your photo or image you want to blur (same way as shown above).
2. Select ‘Edit photo’.
3. Click ‘Auto Focus’ under ‘Effects’.
4. Adjust the blur intensity using the intensity slider.
5. Adjust the blur focus position using the intensity slider to blur different parts of the image.

3. Full Image Blur
The third and final way you can blur your face in a photo on Canva is by blurring the whole image.
This method also works well if you want to upload and layer two different images.
For the purpose of this guide, I’ve chosen two separate stock photos from Canva, and will just blur one of those images.
1. Upload your photo or images.
2. Make sure you have the correct image you want to blur selected.
3. Select ‘Edit photo’ then the ‘Blur’ effect
4. Adjust the blur intensity using the intensity slider.
