Today we gonna do a pastel colors in Photoshop. Also I’m not only show how exact do one photo in pastel colors, I also will explain the principle by which you need to process photos to make them looks as pastel tones.

It was first my retouch for magazine. In april 2011. At that time for skin retouch I don’t use any «fast» method, I use only dodge and burning. Currently I use many techniques — dodge&burn, frequency separation, portraiture… But any of these methods can do beauty result. All if needed careful use of these techniques.
