What does the Skin Tan effect change?

Skin Tan 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 Skin Tan?

Choose Skin Tan for profile pictures with natural texture, mature-skin retouching, or professional headshots 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.
