Hi Zak,
One trick does it all this is!
Just came here for a quick recap of turning everybody into supermodel with perfect skin. Got a busy summer ahead with loads of shooting and retouching. What’s the big secret? Never tell your clients how easy it is to retouch. I have certainly learnt a thing or two from you.
Keep in touch.
Cheers.

Thanks very much,
Retouching is not that complicated. Most people use same techniques with maybe some variations. Knowing Photoshop to some intermediate level does help. Good Luck.
