Beauty retouching editing is a type of photo editing focused on enhancing a person’s appearance in a natural, polished, or glamorized way often used in fashion, portrait, and commercial photography. The goal is to make the subject look their best while maintaining a realistic and flattering look (unless the style calls for a more surreal or stylized result).

Here’s a breakdown of what it typically involves:

Skin Smoothing & Texture Preservation

• Reducing blemishes, acne, redness, and uneven tones.

• Keeping natural pores and skin texture so it doesn’t look plastic or over-edited.

Eye Enhancement

• Whitening the sclera (whites of the eyes), sharpening the iris, and defining lashes and brows.

• Removing red veins and shadows around the eyes.

Teeth Whitening

• Lightening and brightening teeth while avoiding an unnatural bluish tint.

Hair Retouching

• Boosting shine, and filling in sparse areas.

Blemish Removal

• Removing pimples, scars, fine lines, and distracting elements without erasing permanent features like moles (unless requested).
