*"These skin actions are by-far superior than any others out there. **I’m a high-end retoucher by-trade and these actions achieve a very natural appearance.** I still prefer to retouch manually by splitting the image into high & low frequency (and healing on those two passes) because of the control I have, but when I’m in a hurry, this set is absolutely fantastic!"*

*"**This is by far the best skin action I've seen!** I'm a photographer and was doing a lot of what this collection offers manually. I had a series of skin brushes and literally had to paint away blemishes, etc. on my own. This set has eliminated all of the extra work and I'm so glad I happened upon it! This is an invaluable resource. Thank you so much!"*
