Workflow. Fake HDR in Photoshop. Photoshop Tutorials - Beautify a Face (part 1/7) This Photoshop tutorial will show you how to beautify a face. The corrections that we're going to do will make the face look different, but at the same time we avoid to make the results look unnatural like we tend to see in other Photoshop tutorials. Of course, the face we're going to work on is not going to look the same when we're done, but we will only make necessary and subtle changes. We will use Photoshop to fix skin, remove blemishes and wrinkles, whiten and fix teeth, fix hair, fix eyebrows, increase definition in the eyes and crop and sharpen the image in the final steps.
I'm not only going to show you how to beautify a face, but I will also make suggestions that can be useful for other projects.

I sit not far from Client Relations here at iStock, and sometimes hear the tell-tale signs of a well-meaning, but somewhat disoriented iStock image purchaser: it's the dreaded 72 dpi question. The conversation usually goes something like this: This usually goes on for a while until our poor rep gives up and refunds the purchase, or convinces the nice customer that the laws of mathematics do apply to picture resolution.
This whole business of Dots Per Inch (dpi), Pixels Per Inch (ppi), or even Pixels Per Centimeter (ppc, for our European friends), can be downright confusing, even for seasoned pros (we had a well-known Photoshop writer give us an email tongue-lashing about this very subject. Was she ever embarrassed when we pointed out her mistake). We're going to boil it down to the bare minimum. Here is the important take-away: the dpi of a file is just a way to measure it.
