Back in the day, it required you to bounce from Lightroom to Photoshop and back to Lightroom in order to get any retouching done on a portrait. Well, those days are over and Lightroom is beginning to include some pretty powerful features that allow you to retouch right inside the software without heading into Photoshop.
The next-level breakthrough that has happened is the texture slider. This little slider allows for some really powerful skin-softening abilities right inside of Lightroom.

In my latest video, I will introduce the texture slider and let you see how it can help you edit portraits better than ever before.
There are other tools within Lightroom that will help you retouch portraits as well, and we cover several of those in the video too!
If you haven’t already subscribed to my YouTube channel, make sure to do it. The video’s I release there will help you become a better photographer.
