Blemish removal
Use blemish removal to clean up small imperfections while keeping skin texture natural.
Starting from version 3.2.0, it is possible to use Blemish Protection tool to mark areas that won't be affected by Blemishes (Blemish Removal) slider.
Tap Protect Areas and brush over the blemishes you want to protect. Blemish Protection works like a brush, so you can adjust Size, Hardness, Opacity, and Flow to match your edit.
Turn on Include Neck Area if you want the adjustments applied to the neck as well.
To remove protected spots, switch the toggle and brush them away.
Dark circle reduction
Reduce the appearance of dark circles by softening shadows under the eyes without flattening detail.
Even skin
Even skin reduces contrast across facial areas, smoothing tonal differences and creating a more uniform appearance. The Texture slider lets you control how much of the original skin texture is preserved, from a softer finish to a more natural look.
Select Include Neck Area to make sure the neck receives the same adjustments.
Contouring
Contouring adds subtle depth and definition by darkening selected areas with shadow adjustments, helping features stand out.
You can also enable Include Neck Area to extend the adjustments to the neck.
Eye Retouching
Use the Eye Retouch tool to enhance the eyes with controlled, natural adjustments. You can choose to retouch Both eyes at once, or adjust the Left and Right eye separately for more precise control.
The tool includes two main sliders:
Iris slider let you adjust brightness, saturation, and clarity within the colored part of the eye.
Sclera slider help reduce redness and gently brighten the white of the eye for a cleaner, more balanced look.
