Why, does it bother you?

A tiny bit. I also don't like the whole artificial look, but a few head wrinkles gone wouldn't hurt the picture haha.



After and Before.

^ that photo needed it more than mine as the colour balance is off and the stray hairs look annoying. I would have also done the same (but probably made her eyes sparkle more as they are a little grey).

Yeah I know, was just showing a comparison. the color balance seems rather different but that's because it's from my fuji raw. in ACR it doesn't look quite as near as the raw.
