At first glance, the color of this photo is relatively dark. The first step is to brighten the image and copy a layer of this image.
Select the blending mode to "Screen" and adjust the opacity as needed. This tutorial is set to 45%.
Enlarge the image, select the soften tool, select the brush as needed, and choose a lower pressure, tentatively set at 24%. Soften the model's skin. If you encounter larger spots, use the Copy Stamp tool. Softening is a job that requires patience. You must take your time and choose different brush sizes for different skin locations, but the pressure must not be too high. I usually use it below 45. When dermabrasion, pay attention to the eyes, lips, facial contours, etc., and avoid softening these areas. Moreover, softening should not only be done on the face, but also on the exposed skin of the body.

After softening, you should adjust the color. Of course, it is the same if you do this step first. The adjustment of color depends on the individual's color sense. Many people say that the color cannot be adjusted well, but in fact, the color sense is not very good. Color adjustment can use "color balance", "selectable colors", "curves" and so on. . . Let’s make some adjustments with color balance here. Adjust the parameters as shown in the figure:
After adjusting the color balance, I found that the picture was still a bit yellowish. So we use the optional color to adjust the yellow part of the picture. The adjustment parameters are as shown in the figure:
OK, the skin grinding and color adjustment are completed. Next, do a sharpening to make the image sharper. Convert image mode to Lab format.
Select channel - lightness. Select Filter--Sharpening--usm sharpening. The degree of sharpening can be selected according to your own observation. The settings here are as follows:
Convert the image back to RGB format. Okay, all the adjustments are done. Isn’t it very simple? ? ?
