Following on from the bodily cheats thread, this is a photograph I've had a go at. It's a shot of my wicked step mother (although she's not wicked at all). I used the scott kelby book for CS2. Left is original and right is the worked on shot. Slimmed very slightly, whitened teeth & eyes and enlarged eyes. Removed lines, eye bags & lessened skin redness. Also used liquify pixels on the neck line and added a diffused glow.

Good effort Sarah, except her neck looks a bit odd with no wrinkles at all ... it's as if she isn't so much turning her head toward the camera, but instead her head looks like it grew facing sideways instead of facing front! Can't notice any slimming TBH. Her eyes do look brighter, but her smile has lost its warmth. All in all, I prefer the original, it looks much more natural

The neck was the trickiest and as you say, lack of lines is odd. I did give her a print of this shot, but it was the original, just with the eyes & teeth lightened and the diffuse glow added, It just makes her look refreshed. But as you say this fully tweaked version just isn't natural like most magazine shots now.
