Using the concept of Contouring and Highlighting in makeup, we will use simple lines to perform Dodging and Burning to bring out the best features of the face and make the portrait pop. In this lesson, we will use the almighty Curves along with a unique masking technique to add depth and dimension to the portrait. To achieve a more natural result, we’ll also learn to use Blend If to limit the highlights and shadows. I hope this video helps you. Thank you so much for watching 🙂
