Photoshop Essentials
For Beauty Retouching

In this brief introductory course, we go over the Adobe Photoshop interface, tools, and key techniques used specifically in professional beauty retouching. The full course outline is below.

Retouching is the final stage of the visual production process, and it determines how the work you put into a shoot actually looks when it is published.

Whether it is a portfolio shoot or a paid project you were hired for, retouching can make or break all the effort invested in it. Mobile face apps and AI platforms offer shortcuts that do not hold up to campaign quality, so professionals who offer paid photography and retouching services learn retouching in Photoshop.

If you are completely new to working in Photoshop, or to using it for retouching specifically, this course will prepare you for learning beauty retouching at a professional level.
