Quick answer: when should you use Light Leak Effect?

Use Imagic AI Light Leak Effect when you need to add a soft, colorful light-leak overlay. It is best for dreamy portraits, travel photos, and nostalgic film-style edits, runs in the browser workflow, and does not require signup for the core tool.

A 40-60% intensity keeps the leak looking like light, not a solid color patch covering the photo.
