Easily Smooth and Soften Skin In Photoshop | High-End Retouching Techniques [FREE Action Included]

In this tutorial, you will learn how to smooth skin in Photoshop!

We will work with two high-end skin softening techniques.

Both methods are non-destructive, which means that you can edit your skin softening effect at any time!

But most importantly, these skin smoothing techniques will leave the skin texture intact. So that you can get beautiful smooth skin, without it looking fake or too soft.

The first skin softening technique will use a brand new feature of Photoshop CC. The Texture Slider in Camera Raw.

If you are in an older version of Photoshop, don’t worry, the second technique will work in Photoshop CS6.

We’ll start this portrait retouching tutorial by removing blemishes and other skin distractions using Photoshop’s Spot Healing Brush Tool.

Then, after the initial clean-up, we’ll learn step-by-step how to smooth and soften skin without blurring skin texture, or other vital areas in the portrait.

Also, check out the link below to download a Free Photoshop Action that will allow you to apply the Skin Smoothing effect in Photoshop with just one click!

I hope that you find this Retouching Photoshop tutorial and the Free Action useful!

Steal the Color Grading From Any Image With GIMP

In this GIMP 2.10.12 tutorial, I show you how to steal the color grading from any photo and use it or transfer it to another photo. This is a great way to create an “aesthetic” for your photos – or to have all your photos contain matching or similar colors and moods. I use a variety of built-in features that come standard with this free photo editor, including the Color Exchange feature, gradient map, palettes, and curves tools.

This is a great tutorial for beginner GIMP users and photographers to help improve your photo editing skills. All skill levels will enjoy this tutorial!
