9 AI Structure

Another way of softening skin is to go into the Essentials

section of Edit mode – the Sun icon on the right – and choose AI

Structure. This is a Clarity-like slider that begins by default in the

middle, allowing you to pull it to the left to produce a negative

effect. The Details Enhancer works the same, but if you completely

smear away all detail you end up with a very unnatural look.

10 Glow

Soft focus effects can be achieved with the Glow part of the

Creative Edits – the artist’s palette icon on the right. We like Soft

Focus Bright for the way it brightens skintones and retains

sharpness, but pushing it much over 50% results in a strange,

bloomy look. Experimenting is completely safe, however, as

there’s a reset button at the bottom right behind the ‘...’ menu. Q
