    This video documents an intricate photo retouching session focusing on perfecting a subject's eyelashes for a client's project. Sarah is faced with the challenge of mirroring an eye to match the other due to the perfect eyelashes on one side, while dealing with less than ideal lighting conditions. Throughout the session, techniques such as copying, pasting, flipping, layer masking, and adjusting opacity are employed. The retoucher also ventures into skin smoothing, dodge and burn techniques, and various adjustments to enhance the photo while striving to keep edits non-destructive. The script includes interactions with participants, providing a step-by-step guide through the retouching process, emphasizing the importance of lighting and makeup in achieving a realistic yet flawless result.
