Hey y'all, so I have photoshop cs2 and have been using photoshop in general for about a year. I am semi-decent with it, but I am having trouble figuring out how to get a look similar to this:

What I looking to do is to get skin tones white and flawless looking like that. I have tried several different things (levels adjustment, desaturation, dodging, etc) to get a similar look, but they never quite look right. Anyone have any ideas?

Don't really feel like I'd be much help if I went into detail, but I suggest the clone stamp tool. _________________ A.D. |

Also after you use clone I suggest you use the smear a little cause the clone tool leaves things a little choppy. _________________ Don't Panic |

and another thing, I usually create a new layer, and then just check the "use all layers" box (next to opacity and flow) in the toolbar.
and i also use alot of layers. some things can look good at first, but aren't right in the finished product _________________ A.D. |

You need to apply the necessary corrections to only a selected part of the image, not the complete image. Should't be too difficult once you have the right selection in combination with levels and/or curves. Here's an idea: post two images, the original image and the one you modified and I'll show you how to do it better. |
