Hello and welcome back to GMAX STUDIOS
today have back to show you another quick and dirty tip
in adobe lightroom as to how to retouch skin
I know there are plenty of ways of doing this in Photoshop
but first of all, I
usually do not like to do this it myself
where I'm they're doing stuff like retouching skin
and all of that I prefer to leave it to more
adept people the guys who do this professionally or do it for a living
but anyway I found this way to be a pretty good way to get
compliments specially from your
lady friends I don't know whether it'll fly commercially or not
but here it is so we start with a nice decent picture of a young beautiful girl
and she has got pretty good skin to start with
and but we're going to do just very subtle very minor changes
to enhance it a bit and
see that how that affects the photograph. So we start here
with the adjustment brush
and we have all the settings here at 0
and we start painting over the skin. You won't be able to see anything because
right now every setting is at
0 but you can press the "O" key
to see the mask over where you're painting so that
because you have to be careful to leave out
the eys, the nostrils
and the mouth and not to paint them over.
So here goes and I just zoom in
to basically show you how
I'm doing this more clearly
"MUSIC"
So this is done and in case there some
areas that you have accidentally painted over you can always
no and jus that EA's do
name do would be to fine-tuning here like gambling to do
on nostrils and
dome
so I'm going to be raised some more yeah
something about a spill to want to the hem
see again I'm repeating that this is I don't know how well this
process will fly commercially by that
for friends family you want to get a few compliments from Italy France
I think this works pretty well
said is it I
pressing the okie will removed the mosque
and with this selected now we moved the clarity slider to the left
see what it does I'll pull it all the way left I'm
stick to the middle all the way to the left it softens the skin but we don't
want it so soft that it starts looking artificial
so we take it to a point where it's a bit softer than what we had
and I'm
GNA this looks would not increase the shop miss a beat
to bring back the texture of the skin see this is
at 100 this
me signs a little bit again we're trying to get Mac
with texture the skin so that it does not look
artificial to read us nothing
next we increase the exposure of this mosque by
mom available just to give us like blow to the face
yeah this looks good to me and
them then
we take another adjustment brush and this time
we paint inside eyes
you can see it Press all
you paint inside I S
and now we do again here is we
increase the clarity on the skin
we decrease the clarity here we are increasing body
to make it slightly stand up more but as you can see
that the color is deepening a bit I'm
we take care of them and your
this
this looks okay to me and we increase the exposure
so that the doc and column
and we can bring back some color into the eyes
this bought is very tricky if you
enhance the white of the iced too much the photograph
looks really really freak there is one Nam
ruler who would say is that the white of the
eyes should not be white the them
light dist bot of the face I'm
some announcing it a bit so that
looks nice and we increase the shop miss
little bit see see what it does Makhdoom
just stupid
live bit more
exposure
manly 125
so that is about it
actually thats all that is there to it
for comparison
this is what it looks like probably not too much
but I just think that's made the picture pop up some more
and am want to go out
you can see the difference is much more prominent
a skin is better eyes I shiny a and for a final
retouch what we do is we crush the blacks a bit
increases this situation best for the overall picture
increase the contrast and here because
I want the face to stand out a bit what I'm going to do is take a neutral
density filter and
the graduated from diving
it's called yeah and yes it's a graduated filter short cut key "M"
am and I'm going to pull it across the land image
and just move the exposure a little too was the left
make it a little knock so that her face stands
out some more I'm and
lost but not the least we again
go down right here do
venia small slight again
knocking the sides a bit see this other networks
but we're going to slowly
just a little bit so that the face stands out more
and this is it
final image verses
that the original image I hope you had fun enjoying this
