What does the Shine Remove effect change?

Shine Remove targets the relevant skin region with a restrained local correction, balancing the requested refinement against pores, tonal variation, and recognizable facial texture. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Shine Remove?

Choose Shine Remove for direct-flash portraits, multi-person photographs that need consistent refinement, or beauty and fashion portraits when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains obscured faces, extreme side angles, tiny group-photo faces, or sources where hair and background boundaries cannot be separated reliably.
