Rochas
Three crops at native resolution, 4.5× the frames above. Nothing enlarged.
Brow and under-eye. Marks on the forehead resolved one by one. The frown line was eased with light and shade, not erased. The under-eye was lifted keeping its fold.
Nose and mouth. Redness around the nose and the smile line neutralised by tone. Marks on the cheek and chin resolved. Loose hairs and the shine on the lip are kept.
Forehead and temple. Marks resolved one by one. The horizontal lines were eased by volume, not by blur. The hairline is cut against the background with no halo.
Happy to walk you through any of these images, layer by layer.
