Too people who want to get "prettier" and have a "glow up" Do NOT expect it to go over night.
Plenty of people believed that you just become pretty with no effort like you see on TV. It's never that easy. It takes steps, processes and Discipline. Always start with the basics like :
Hygeine
Make a skincare routine for your skin
Know your skin type and build you skincare routine from there
body care for the entire body
Scrubs , lotions and body butters are a must
Exfoliate 1-2 times a week
haircare (hair is everything even if u have a hijab hair care is still possible)
Oil train your hair and know you hair porosity to know what products to use
Use a non sulphate or silicon shampoo
Conditioner and a hair oil of your choice based on your hair problem
Hair mask 1 times a week
Know ur hair pattern to be able to use the right products and not damage your hair pattern
Do not straighten your hair everyday!!!
Use Silk pillows and silk scrunchies instead of elastics!!!
Getting a closet and hair cut for you
Find your best colors and body type
Therefore you would know which colors make you shine the most as well as
Find your seasonal color and which fraction ur in (like winter bright , summer light and etc)
Find which type of hair cuts and bangs suit your facial featured and face shape most
I recommend looksmaxing or the Yt channel Dear Peachie to help you including makeup tutorials, which archetype you are and which closet you can do
Look for styles that match your personality and makes you stand out
Build up a hobby
like sports photography, drawing, crocheting, dancing, and etc.
Doesn't have to be time consuming just something to do when ur bored or free even
Also depends on your time to be careful on what you commit to
Try to explore more options without much costs before fully committing to something that isn't for long-term
Exercise ( unless you already do)
Exercise requires discipline for you to be able to do it continuously for progress
If you can't afford a premium membership take a walk/jog/run around the block,street,park
If you feel unsafe you can do a YouTube work outs as they are effective depending on your goal
I recommend channels like :Madfit ,Hinafit, Shirley kim, April Han, ema wong, and Chloe ting
Take time for yourself (not all the time)
If you dont have time for yourself your body and brain will get stressed (from experience)
It can be as simple as drinking your daily detox water, green juice, coffee, tea or reading a book
Get 8 hours of sleep
Make sure not to stress for something so complete a task when given no matter how far the deadline is!!!
Reduce screen time to 3 hours a day (outside of school/work related stuff)
Diet
Never go too extreme like you see those people online do
Unless you are talking to professionals such as dieticians, Nutritionists and etc. (Bc most public figures do have professionals that they seek help too for these types of situations)
stick to a healthy diet like the 80/20 method
Or you can also do keto/greek/high carb or protein just never go extreme as it will slow down your metabolism
Find who you really are and trying to be better
People never really open up to try different things you should try more to find what you like most or which you are most stable with
See the perspectives on how you act im different situations and see what your mistakes are to try to avoid doing them again
Fix your mentality (watch wizard Liz, Song Jia,) and read quotes to inspire you to do better and the most you can
Always Analyze the situation before commenting or doing action unless its an emergency
Do not let people decide for you or get to your head it is their opinion not yours. You opinion is never invalid and justified in your perspective
Confident vs Arrogant vs Egoistic
Confident people never brag nor do they drag people down. They know they are THAT person and will NOT care about your opinion of them.
Arrogant people like to Brag about something that they have and thinks their all That. They bring down people for not having the luxury they have. But when someone has more and better than them they always try to avoid them, argue with them or get annoyed by them as They want to show supremacy
Egoistic people tend to make fun of people. Self-centered people that only think about themselves without knowing or thinking that they hurt others. Their too preoccupied with themselves to think of others helps or needs
(Sorry its so long and unorganized I made this at 2:30 am bc idk and these are just some tips)

Top 5 Hobbies for a Kawaii Lifestyle
Originally posted to www.onlyfunthings.org on January 11, 2019
Tumblr media
Ciao lovelies! Today here’s 5 “Kawaii Lifestyle” Hobbies!
Now before I begin, I want to say that these hobbies are NOT the only hobbies that can be included in a “Kawaii Lifestyle”! You could do anything for hobbies and still lead a kawaii life. These are just some hobbies that may be considered “Kawaii” traditionally/stereotypically.
So now, let’s get into this super cute hobby list!
#1- Toy Collecting! Many Kawaii Lifestylers that I know of, myself included, collect toys! Some collect vintage toys, some collect modern and some collect both! Toy collecting can be very fun for many reasons. For one, if you have a more childish nature/if you’re an age regressor, you can play with the toys! For two, your toy collection can make great kawaii décor! Toys come in all shapes and colors and sizes, so you can carefully select what you want to display! Some Kawaii toys to collect that I recommend: Num-Noms!
As well as: Calico Critters (also known as Sylvanian Families), Shopkins Lil Secrets (Which are a lot like old school Polly Pockets), Squishies, Molang figures, Monster High Minis….ect! 
And going right along with toy collecting is…
#2- Toy Photography / Doll Photography! Another super fun and “kawaii” hobby is toy photography! Toys and dolls can be easier photo subjects (sometimes) than humans in my opinion because you can pose them exactly how you imagine, and you can take many shots while they hold the same pose! There are many highly poseable kawaii dolls like Monster High, Ever After High, Made-To-Move Barbie, and even BJD!
#3- Crafting/DIY! A big part of Kawaii subculture which isn’t really talked about enough in my opinion is the amount of crafty kawaii lifestylers! I’ve seen so many crafty kawaii lifestylers who make their own clothes, jewelry, accessories, décor… but yet I don’t see much discussion about it, and it can be hard to find good craft tutorials online for that specific niche! But crafty-ness is a big part of kawaii culture! I’ve even recently discovered a good place to get some kawaii stickers and beads for cute resin and jewelry projects, Blippo.com ! Blippo has many very kawaii items for pretty cheaply, just the other night I ordered a BUNCH of stuff for under $12 and free shipping, as well as a free mystery welcome gift! (my full review of Blippo is coming soonish, my orders are still in post). Another great place to find kawaii craft supplies is Aliexpress using search terms like “Kawaii Cabochon” and others like that. Just remember that Aliexpress is similar to Amazon/Ebay and you should always check the reviews before buying anything! (Note- this post was not sponsored by either of these sites, this is just my own opinion).
#4- Baking! Baking can be so much fun, and you don’t even need to make things from scratch to have a good time! Want to know a secret? Some of the best cakes I’ve ever made were with a modified box mix! One of my best tips is: “To make a boxed cake mix really amazing, follow the directions on the box EXCEPT: add 1 more egg than what it calls for, instead of using oil use melted butter (and double the amount), instead of water use milk!” This tip I found on Pinterest, and I’ve used it several times to make some of the best cakes and cupcakes I’ve ever made! ….So I bet you’re wondering how this hobby is particularly “kawaii”? Well, the decorating of course! Decorating cakes, cupcakes, cookies and more is one of the best parts of baking! You can make the baked good as kawaii as you want!
#5- Journaling! I know I mentioned this briefly in Wednesday’s post, but let’s talk quickly about how to make this kawaii. Again, you can use sites like Blippo.com to find cute stickers, washi tape, pens and pencils! You can also doodle in your journal and draw cute things like flowers, animals, and chibis! You can also press flowers in a journal for extra cute-ness. 
What do you think of our suggestions? What do you consider to be “kawaii” hobbies? Let us know in the comments!
Remember to Stay Awesome and Love Yourself!

HOW TO EARN MONEY BY UPLOADING PICTURES
Wait! For simple comprehension and access, it is advised that you view this SHORT VIDEO tutorial before continuing.
Regarding image licensing, you may use the Creative Commons Zero (CC0) license to distribute your photographs on Pixabay and Pexels. Nobody is permitted to claim ownership of your photographs or use them to promote their products, but everyone is free to use them anyway they like. You may still earn money, however, if you contribute or make your photos available for license outside of these channels.
Pixabay and Pexels have arrangements with online stock photo markets like Adobe Stock. You may sign up for these programs and start earning royalties if your photographs are utilized provided your images are licensed via their partner networks.
Original content production: Some photographers choose to charge for their premium or unique content. This might be enhanced versions of their photos, creative creations, or insightful subject matter. The only people who are eligible for these special discounts are those who are willing to pay for premium material.
Building a lucrative Portfolio: You need to develop a lucrative portfolio if you want to increase your chances of making money on Pixabay and Pexels. Upload images with excellent technical quality, alluring appearances, and a range of subjects and themes. More people are lured in, increasing the likelihood that they will download your photographs.
To accurately describe your photos, use the right words and phrases. As a result, it will be simpler for users to locate your photographs while doing theme-related research.
Regular uploads: Keep posting new photos to your portfolio to keep it fresh and colorful. As a result, you use the platforms more often and actively.
promote Your Work: In order to increase awareness of your work and attract potential clients, you must market it.
Post details about your images on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Use relevant hashtags, engage with your fans, and direct them to your Pixabay or Pexels profile to enhance exposure.
Take part in discussions, provide criticism of other photographers' work, and leave comments about it. Creating connections in your community could boost your profile and bring in new clients.
Planning theme collections or collaborative photography projects while working with other photographers. As a consequence, a larger audience will be exposed to your work, and chances for cross-promotion may present themselves.
Monitoring and Analyzing Performance: By keeping an eye on your performance, you may figure out which strategies are working best for you and make the required adjustments.
Monitoring views and downloads: Check the information provided by Pixabay and Pexels to learn which of your photos are doing well and getting more downloads. You could spot repeating trends and increase the engagement of your subsequent postings if you do this.
Finding out about fads: Keep an eye out for the photo categories that are most sought-after and schedule your next uploads to coincide with those trends. If you do this, users are more inclined to download and pay for your photographs.
To boost your earnings on Pixabay and Pexels, take into account the following strategies. If you provide premium material, experimenting with price may help you discover the ideal balance between attracting customers and increasing earnings.
Increasing your presence on other platforms: Pixabay and Pexels are well-known websites for stock photography, but you may want to check into other ones to reach a larger audience and diversify your income streams.
creating one-of-a-kind, restricted-edition content that is only available through Pexels or Pixabay. This could appeal to those who are actively hunting for unusual things and are willing to pay more for them.
To sum up, photographers may take use of Pixabay and Pexels by using monetization options, building a solid portfolio, effectively promoting their work, and tracking success. Accept and refine these strategies
4 SIMPLE WAYS TO USE PEXELS Pexels is a well-known online source for free pictures and videos. It offers a sizable collection of free movies and images that were created by a team of talented filmmakers and photographers. The website serves as a cluster of resources for bloggers, designers, marketers, and anybody else in need of eye-catching photographs. Users are free to browse and download these images from Pexels without any form of license restrictions or other restrictions.
Pexels provides a vast array of top-notch photographs for both personal and business use, as well as a mechanism for users to make money. In this article, we'll examine a number of strategies you may utilize to profit from the site and make money for yourself.
Tips for Using Pexels A website called Pexels was developed to let professional photographers and videographers share their work and start earning money from it. When you submit the pictures or videos and a user downloads them, you will be paid through PayPal. Each download will bring in $0.25 for you.
How to Use Pexels to Make Money You may monetise your work using Pexels in a number of ways, such as by participating in Pixel challenges. One way to accomplish it is to participate in Pexels' challenges and earn money from them. Pexels often hosts contests where photographers and videographers can display their diverse skills and compete for substantial financial incentives. Therefore, by participating in any of these challenges, you'll get recognition and respect in the photography community in addition to money. You must carry out the following tasks in order to take part in the Pexels challenges:
Look For The Current Challenges: To find out more about the ongoing and current jobs, visit the Pexels website and explore the challenges section. Once you've arrived at the challenge section, navigate the several tasks to choose the one that most closely resembles your style of photography.
Upload your best photos after taking them: Create outstanding images that meet the challenge's current theme and submit them for assessment on the Pexels website. Make sure your photographs follow the guidelines and that the submission complies with the specifications.
Find Support For Your Submission: At this point, you could decide to upload the photos you used for the challenges on a photography forum, a social networking site, etc. to increase their visibility to your audience and earn more fans from the photography community.
Engage in community interaction by talking to other participants and photographers, praising their work, and so on. This is essential since it will let you build effective partnerships and widen opportunities.
Utilize your email address to register for a Pexels account by visiting the website and following the steps. You'll be able to upload pictures and videos to Pexels as a result.
Post Your High-Quality images: After creating your account, upload your most glamorous and best images to the Pexels website. Make sure the photographs completely adhere to the platform's regulations before posting them to avoid penalties.
Enhance the Titles and Descriptions of Your Photographs: After uploading your best photos, the next step is to use relevant keywords and provocative titles to draw in more viewers.
Organize Your photographs: Group your photographs into distinct, relevant groups to make them more visible to visitors.
supply commercial licenses to users: Since the website enables users to download photos and videos without requiring a license, you must supply commercial licenses to users in order to draw in more visitors.
Track Your Pexels Profits: Pexels subscribers have access to a dashboard where they can track the number of downloads, views, and sales they get for their images. With this dashboard, you can keep an eye on all of your Pexels sales. Cooperate with businesses and organizations
Another way to get money on Pexels is to work for different businesses and organizations. Due to your talent as a photographer, you could get the attention of various businesses, which will surely improve your revenue chances. Simply use the following steps to get brands and agencies' attention:
Promote Your Expertise With Your Portfolio: Showcase the best images from your Pexels portfolio, which will include a range of top-notch skills and aesthetics. Businesses and agencies are constantly seeking for skilled photographers to develop visual material, so if you provide them top-notch photographs, they could hire you. This is no longer breaking news.
Create A Professional Portfolio Or Website: You can increase your visibility on the Pexels platform and make it easier for businesses and agencies to discover you by presenting your abilities online via a portfolio or website.
Collaboration With Notable Bloggers And Influencers: Work with well-known bloggers and influencers that need top-notch product photographs. As a result, if you can provide them the best photographs, they could work with you and introduce you to a bigger audience.
Be Open To Requests And Questions: It is usually preferable to respond as quickly as you can to requests and questions from other groups in order to promote closer collaboration.

ART TIP #5: THE ART OF BEING A SOCIAL CLIMBER, 3 EASY-STEPS YOU CAN TRY! 
Tumblr media
In todays day and age, the glitter and glamour of a social media post can take you to places, literally. With the worlds most followed people on Instagram being either an international Popstar or a Kardashian, a fight between talent and plastic surgeons. 
It may be a Eureka moment to ask, how can you portray your alter ego in a world dominated by likes and comments feeding peoples kinks and fetishes, if in reality, your lifestyle may not even be as glamorous as Paris Hilton’s dog, don’t cry. To say the least, it must be really difficult to social climb, right? Or isn’t it?
This blog post will walk you through to a 3-step tutorial on how to achieve everything without basically having nothing. And to put a massive disclaimer, this is not basing upon on any personal experience, God forbid.
Tumblr media
STEP 1: UKAY-UKAY IS LIFE
It is not a question about who has the privilege to afford brand-new clothing, but rather a question of who can slay-the-runway the hardest. In todays time, in this type of economy, clothing  shifted from just a mere need to encapsulate your naked body to a want that unleashes confidence and poise. But that mere need requires an extra glitter of cash, and when in a tight budget, who are you going to call? This time its not the ghost busters, but a magical fairyland of pure fashion style that doesn't break the bank, the Ukay-Ukay.
Tumblr media
STEP 2: BE LIKE DORA THE EXPLORER 
Good fashionable outfit is useless if the background of your Facebook profile picture is a stacked domino house, don’t cry. With our childhood hero, Dora The Explorer is here to save the day. The ability to know the right place and in this case it should be for free, since we are on a tight budget, will make any picture worthy of recognition that you, the one reading this is thirsty for, but of course we will not judge, swear.  Iconic structure and crowd-favorite spot that everyone whose part of our little cult surely already knows. 
Tumblr media
STEP 3: THE ART OF MULTIMEDIA ARTS
Lastly, and the most important recipe to achieve a not-so-fake online world lifestyle is the talent to create world-competent content. Photography, to have the ability to capture real-life moments and no it wasn’t sarcasm when we say real-life. Videography, if you have the ability to make dancing videos and tick with the rhythm of the tock. Editing, to enhance the facial features of your vogue-ready face minus the red spots. Copywriting, since a good content requires an opposite utterly not connected caption. Social media management, to check the statistics if the likes made any difference. Digital marketing, to sell off your fantasy of a perfect Kardashian-like lifestyle.
Tumblr media
All of these at the end of the very day are mere creation of pure imagination and to repeat, this does not base to any personal experience. Take note, Fashion whether brand-new or second-hand is not worn by people to social climb or to impress other, it is to express their self-being through woven fabric and be the most comfortable in their skin. Landmark places where normal working people visit is not for them to be up-to-trend but for them to unwind and relax and enjoy the beauty of our nature and infrastructure. And lastly, the talent of multimedia artists is not for people to use to portray an alter ego but rather to unleash talent that may benefit corporate and business sectors or even single clients that allows the industry to creatively grow with the help of the art. This blog may took a U-turn but its a good opportunity to say, theres no such thing as social climbing. Break the Stigma. Support the Art.

Empowering Female-Owned Businesses in the Digital Age
New Post has been published on https://sistamagazine.co.za/empowering-female-owned-businesses-in-the-digital-age/
Empowering Female-Owned Businesses in the Digital Age
Tumblr media
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, female entrepreneurs are leveraging the power of online platforms to carve out their own paths to success. With creativity, determination, and a strategic approach to marketing, women-owned businesses are making their mark in diverse industries worldwide.
However, navigating the digital realm can be daunting, especially with the ever-changing algorithms, trends, and competition. That’s why it’s crucial for female entrepreneurs to arm themselves with effective marketing strategies tailored to their unique strengths and objectives.
Here are some tailored marketing tips for female-owned businesses looking to leverage digital platforms:
Authentic Storytelling: Female-owned businesses often have unique narratives behind their inception. Use digital platforms such as social media, blogs, or video content to share your story authentically. Highlight your journey, challenges overcome, and values that drive your business. This helps in building a strong emotional connection with your audience.
Engage with Your Community: Actively engage with your audience on social media platforms. Respond to comments, messages, and mentions promptly. Create a sense of community around your brand by hosting live Q&A sessions, polls, or discussions on topics related to your industry or niche.
Collaborate with Influencers: Partner with influencers who resonate with your brand values and target audience. Female influencers can be particularly effective in reaching out to female consumers. Collaborate for sponsored content, product reviews, or joint giveaways to increase brand visibility and credibility.
Visual Storytelling: Utilize visually appealing content to showcase your products or services. Platforms like Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok are great for sharing high-quality images, videos, and infographics. Invest in professional photography or graphic design to create visually appealing content that stands out.
Empowerment Marketing: Position your brand as a champion of women’s empowerment. Create campaigns that celebrate female achievements, support gender equality, or raise awareness about women’s issues. By aligning your brand with social causes, you can attract like-minded customers who support your mission.
Email Marketing: Build and nurture your email list to establish direct communication with your audience. Offer incentives such as exclusive discounts, free resources, or newsletters tailored to their interests. Personalize your emails to make subscribers feel valued and connected to your brand.
SEO and Content Marketing: Invest in search engine optimization (SEO) to improve your website’s visibility on search engine results pages. Create high-quality, relevant content that addresses the needs and interests of your target audience. Blog posts, tutorials, guides, and how-to videos can help establish your expertise in your industry.
Utilize E-commerce Platforms: If you sell products, leverage e-commerce platforms like Shopify, Etsy, or Amazon to reach a broader audience. Optimize your product listings with keywords, high-resolution images, and detailed descriptions. Offer secure payment options and provide excellent customer service to enhance the online shopping experience.
Customer Reviews and Testimonials: Encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews and testimonials on your website or social media profiles. Positive feedback builds trust and credibility, influencing potential customers’ purchasing decisions. Respond to reviews, whether positive or negative, to show that you value customer feedback and are committed to customer satisfaction.
Networking and Collaboration: Connect with other female entrepreneurs and businesses within your industry or related fields. Collaborate on joint ventures, cross-promotions, or co-hosted events to expand your reach and tap into each other’s networks. Building mutually beneficial relationships can lead to new opportunities and growth for your business.
By implementing these marketing strategies, female-owned businesses can effectively leverage digital platforms to increase brand awareness, attract customers, and drive business growth.

This feature is particularly beneficial when shooting in various conditions, allowing beginners to concentrate on composition and creativity rather than intricate technical details.
Image quality is a crucial aspect of any camera, and beginner-friendly options are no exception.

Many beginner cameras offer high-resolution sensors, enabling users to capture detailed and vibrant photographs.

New Beginnings
Tumblr media
               This is a big week for me. On Tuesday, the Spring Semester starts, and I will find myself a full-time student again for the first time in 13 years. This will not be my first experience as a ‘non-traditional’ student. In 2009, at the age of thirty-six, I went back to school to get a CIS degree. But that was while I was raising young children full time and trying to materially and emotionally support a spouse with a full-time teaching career. It was a lot. But I did well, even if I ran out of steam and fell about three credits shy of getting my AA.
               I think this experience will be different. I don’t have kids at home anymore, and my current partner is also a student, so we will be able to support each other. We’re even taking an ASL class together. No, this should be a completely different experience, though I know it won’t be stress-free. Also, I’m no longer singularly responsible for planning and cooking all our meals, and doing all the housework, the way I was before. My current partnership is much more equal than my last one was.
               I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little nervous, though. I’m older than I was, even if I’m just as healthy, I think. In the intervening years, I’ve done a deep dive into how my brain works, and I know how to be productive. Over the past couple of years, I’ve been getting a lot of stuff done, both housework and writing and reading and other stuff. So, I know I can do it. It’s going to be an adjustment, however, having someone else’s external schedule imposed over mine. I’m going to have to get up on time every day (which means breaking my addiction to the snooze alarm, which is already in progress). I’m taking sixteen units, which is kind of a lot. Only one of those classes is online.
               The subject matter is different from anything I’ve ever studied before. I’m going back to earn a certificate in Digital Art and Design, so I’ll be in a lot of Art classes. Starting with line drawing and beginning design, as well as intro to digital art. That’s just this semester. Halfway through, I’ll be adding an Adobe Suite online tutorial class. I’m hoping this will give me a new set of skills that I can use to support my writing career. But this is an entirely new area for me.
               I spent most of my teenage years obsessively drawing, and I loved doing it, even if the art I produced was terrible. I knew nothing about anatomy, or design principles. S put some nice pictures together but had no hope of making most of my projects match the image I had in my head. Through all those years, I never took an art class. So, getting back to this now, at 51, feels like a return to an old vision of myself that was never quite able to develop. Will I be any better with formal training? I’d almost have to be.
               Future classes will take me further into design skills, including graphic design, as well as digital photography, animation, and web design. I’m excited to learn about all of it. My goal is to be able to gain proficiency at formatting my own books and designing my own book covers, and maybe, if I get good enough, earning some extra money by doing that for other people.
               But even as I add this new challenge, I’m not abandoning my writing goals. I still plan to produce 30,000 words a month. I have been on my new writing schedule for the last two weeks, just to make sure it’s realistic. 2-4 on Wednesday and Fridays, 11-2 on Saturdays. I need to produce 7500 words in those three days, and I’ve met or exceeded that in the first two weeks. So, I know this is doable. I also need to work in time for editing and other publishing-related tasks. I want to release three books this year.
               I think it’s important, as we get older, not to settle into old patterns, but to stretch and grow and learn new things, and expand into new areas. It keeps you young, and studies show it can actually extend your life and help stave off dementia. I’m definitely doing that.
               Am I afraid I might suck at this? Absolutely! But really, if I try this, and fail, then I really haven’t lost much. I lose more by never trying, and always wondering if I could have been successful.
               So, this week is a new beginning. I’m really looking forward to it. I feel like I am at the cusp of an entire new life, and I welcome its unfolding.

Unleashing Your Photo Editing Skills: A Simple Guide to High End Photo Retouching
Tumblr media
In the ever-evolving world of photography, the importance of high-quality images has reached the pinnacle of corporate priorities. Whether it's for online businesses or traditional brick-and-mortar establishments, the demand for visually appealing photographs has given rise to the booming picture editing business. High-end photo retouching, a process executed at a professional level using advanced tools like Adobe Photoshop, has become an integral aspect of achieving polished and refined images.
Defining High-End Photo Retouching
Photo retouching is a term familiar even to those outside the photography realm. However, delving deeper reveals the complexity of high-end retouching. At its core, high-end retouching is a meticulous correction process that goes beyond basic touch-ups.
This includes a myriad of adjustments, from altering body forms and cleaning skin to manipulating colors and enhancing overall image quality. Clients often seek major picture adjustments, making high-end retouching the go-to solution for achieving a professional and polished look.
Distinguishing Basic and High-End Retouching
Understanding the distinction between basic and high-end retouching can be challenging for both clients and photographers. Basic retouching involves fundamental adjustments such as light and color correction, blemish removal, and shadow correction.
These changes are noticeable but don't dramatically alter the image. On the other hand, high-end retouching encompasses more significant alterations, from fixing old or damaged images to modifying body shapes, performing color manipulation, and removing distractions.
The depth and complexity of these changes set high-end retouching apart, creating a more refined and professional result.
Trends in High-End Photo Retouching (2022)
As technology advances, new trends emerge in the field of high-end photo retouching. Skin retouching takes center stage, with a focus on eliminating spots, and blemishes, and preserving the natural texture of the skin. Beauty retouching, often employed in fashion and portrait photography, goes beyond skin and hair adjustments, requiring a deep understanding of cosmetics and precise color alterations.
Portrait retouching, especially for fashion photography, emphasizes hair retouching, including tasks like eliminating stray hairs, straightening hair, and enhancing overall patterns. In the realm of fashion retouching, a combination of skin, hair, and beauty retouching is crucial, with an added emphasis on body form manipulation. Product retouching, although comparatively simpler, is essential for e-Commerce, involving color correction, background removal, and attention-grabbing techniques.

Best Apps for High-End Photo Retouching
The availability of a plethora of software options for high-end retouching provides photographers and editors with a range of tools to choose from. Adobe Photoshop stands out as the leading software, offering unparalleled versatility. Adobe Lightroom is the preferred choice for color correction, while Luminar boasts a user-friendly interface. AutoRetouch leverages AI for simple yet effective picture editing, and ON1 Photo Raw excels in portrait editing with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
GIMP is a robust tool for complex manipulation, Portrait Pro specializes in high-end retouching, and DxO Photolab 4 is recognized for its excellence in ISO invariance. Exposure XS4 by Alien Skin Software is particularly effective for picture masking.
Learning High-End Photo Retouching: Effective Methods
Mastering high-end photo retouching is a journey that requires effort, focus, and perseverance. Two primary methods facilitate the learning process: tutorials and high-end retouching courses. Tutorials offer convenience due to their widespread availability, providing a wealth of information that learners can navigate at their own pace.
However, the drawback lies in the absence of precise standards and certifications. On the other hand, enrolling in high-end retouching courses, available both online and offline through platforms like Skillshare, Udemy, CreativeLive, and Linkedin Learning, provides structured learning with step-by-step instructions. While quality courses may require an investment, they offer certifications that can enhance employment prospects.
Conclusion
In the competitive world of photography, where visuals are the first point of contact between customers and goods, mastering high-end photo retouching is paramount. The trends, techniques, and tools outlined for 2022 reflect the dynamic nature of this field. Consistent practice, combined with a dedication to staying updated on industry trends, will not only enhance your skills but also shape your reputation as a professional in the realm of high-end photo retouching.
As your photographs become a reflection of your expertise, the emphasis on delivering high-quality images remains crucial for establishing lasting connections with clients and ensuring success in the ever-evolving landscape of photography.
