I know he said this a few times in the tutorial, but people please be careful with how much you edit skin tones and make them plastic or fake, I know myself to be guilty of this in the past. This is a very powerful technique but not to be used in every image or as a quick fix solution to bad images. Like all good photographers keep saying time and time again, get it right in camera, so that might mean use a good makeup artist, light the image right, and then make only the necessary adjustments or touch ups in Photoshop. Here is a recent edit using Freq Sep i.imgur.com/qrF7EAC.jpg let me know if it has been over done. Keep the great tutorials coming Phlearn!

Great tutorial , the only addition/suggestion I would add is instead of using lasso tool and gaussian blur. do this instead : alternative: 1. duplicate 'layer 0 copy' apply gaussian blur to the duplicate 2. add a layer mask to the duplicated 'layer 0 copy' that has the blur applied 3.fill the mask with black 4. paint back in the blurs as needed by painting white into the mask there's way more subtlety and control with this method because you can use the brushes instead of awkward lasso selections and you can easily change back if you feel you've added too much blur. hope that made sense

I thought the same thing and it is a comfortable familiar way BUT.... he is applying different strengths of blur to different parts to taste. You cannot do that with the other method and lose some creative control over the picture If you want a medium blur all around it'll work like a charm though.

but the shade of black/white you paint into the mask will dictate the amount of blur

This for instance, I was looking for frequency separation tutorials. I was confused/ worried because takes to long. But this method is so much better. You have such a way of explaining things, and turned them simple. I'm really blown away. Thank you. You really help me a lot.

Wow awesome! I've been using Photoshop for over 20 years but never truly understood how Freq Separation worked and why its so important. I've watched many tuts on how to use it but always thought "why, when i can just fix stuff using the patch or spot healer tools?". Now I get why I've never achieved the results I've been striving for using other methods. I always learn more from you in a shorter time because you explain clearly without condescending, so thank you! I love your teachings! :)

I regularly come back to this video for a refresher if I haven't needed to retouch faces in a while. It blows me away every single time. I downloaded the action several years ago and it is my favorite one to use to retouch. If, like me, you have the action already and you don't need to build the layers and you are just coming back as a refresher, the part you probably want to watch should start at 6:10

You're extremely proficient in explaining more advanced aspects of Photoshop. I like the way to stopped at 5:13 to sort of do a check that we're all at the right point. I also love the way you gave an explanation at the start of the video. Some KZbinrs just jump right in with little context. They say it's skin retouching but don't explain the method at the start, so it feels like you are just blindly following along. I'll definitely try support this channel by subscribing on your website. Thank you!

This is a great tutorial! Anyway, about the scale=2 and offset=128 value. I'm not sure what the scale value does, probably the radius of our texture. But I think why we should set the value of offset=128 because that was the exact value of middle grey for RGB color mode (256 divided by 2 = 128). So, R = 128; G =128; B = 128. Why the middle grey? Because as far as I know, some layer blending modes like Overlay, Soft Light, Hard Light, etc, will makes any pixel in middle grey value is going to be perfectly transparant to the layer beneath it, like it got erased (but it's not). Makes sense? Just try it yourself. Therefore, at Frequency Separation method, the concept is just the same. When we set the offset value to 128, generally the skin would changed to middle grey (which is going to looks transparant as we change the layer blending mode), and the textures changed to lighter or darker pixels. The layer blending mode that work best for this method is Linear Light. At this point, you will see only the textures and our blured skin from the layer beneath it. I'm not even sure if anyone would read this (I mean, it's too long and not that important though), but please, correct me if I'm wrong. Sorry for the complicated explanation, and sorry for my bad english.

I've been struggling to apply this concept in (ancient) Photoshop Elements and JUST figured out how. There is no "apply image" or "subtract blending mode" - but you can make two copies of the original, Gaussian Blur 1st layer by 4px (for example), then highpass second layer at 4px and set it to "Linear Light" at 50% opacity. It's probably 50% opacity because you can't scale the effect by 2 like in "apply image" or something. But I KNEW there was a workaround!

Jacqueline Sy if you do spot healing first you can lose some of your texture that you may want to preserve. not to mention you can use all the retouching tools (clone stamp, Spot heal, patch, etc.) on these layers so there isn't much point in doing it first.

I'm also having this same problem! I've used the tutorial before and it worked fine, but on the image I'm working on today... it's just making the selection dark gray, and not blurring it??

So wait... i've seen two very professional tutorials saying to ( in the apply image dialogue box ) to set the blending mode to ADD. and you set it to SUBTRACT. Whats the difference? because add works too....

if your image is 8 bit, use subtract. If your image is 16bit, use add, then check the invert box then offset = 0

What I'm hearing/seeing are these values to use in the "Apply Image" dialog box: - For 8 bit files: use "Subtract", Scale 2, Offset 128 - For 16 bit files, use "Add", Scale 2, Offset 0, check "Invert" box. Maybe Aaron/Phlearn can confirm if this is correct?

does the layer still need to be changed to 'linear light'?

found my answer, for 16 bit images, you must use 'invert' in the apply image panel to get the middle grey

+Royce Johnson . You should see in the zip a file named [Phlearn Frequency Separation] right under the macosx folder. Copy it on your desktop, double-click it and choose [open with photoshop]. In photoshop, open your action tab Window->Action (or Alt+F9) and you'll see it at the bottom. Choose your layer on your working file, and press the small play button at the bottom of the action tab.
