To convert a layer style to image layers

To customize or fine-tune the appearance of layer styles, you can convert the layer styles to regular image layers. After
you convert a layer style to image layers, you can enhance the result by painting or applying commands and filters.
However, you can no longer edit the layer style on the original layer, and the layer style no longer updates as you
change the original image layer.
Note: The layers produced by this process may not result in artwork that exactly matches the version using layer styles.
In Photoshop, you may see an alert when you create the new layers.
In the Layers palette, select the layer containing the layer style that you want to convert.
1
Choose Layer > Layer Style > Create Layers.
2
You can now modify and restack the new layers in the same way as regular layers. Some effects—for example, Inner
Glow—convert to layers within a clipping mask.
You can also drag a layer style to the New Layer button at the bottom of the Layers palette to generate a new layer
from an existing style.
Adjustment and fill layers

Adjustment layers and fill layers

An adjustment layer applies color and tonal adjustments to your image without permanently changing pixel values.
For example, rather than making a Levels or Curves adjustment directly on your image, you can create a Levels or
Curves adjustment layer. The color and tone adjustments are stored in the adjustment layer and apply to all the layers
below it.
at the bottom of the Styles palette.
