I want to make a point and say this is not a color correction tutorial; what I am doing though is overall smoothing out her skin brightening it up a bit and blurring it a little bit. In this tutorial, that's what we'll be doing. So here is what we'll end up with and here is the before. As you'll notice the blemishes are a lot more noticeable and her skin overall is not as even. You can see a lot more of the pores; there's a lot more detail. When we turn it on you can see that overall the skin becomes nice and smooth, a little bit blurred, but the blur only affects her skin and not her eyes. Let's go into 150%; so if you watch her pupil you'll see that her eyes do not become soft; it's just her skin and the way I'm doing this is inside the HSL secondary.
We have a tutorial that Alli has done that talks about this and it's a really powerful effect; so in this one, we're going to be smoothing her skin using the HSL secondary. So I'll delete Lumetri Color and we'll start over here, so inside HSL secondary, let's click on the plus eyedropper and select your skin. That'll make a rough selection and then to see what we've selected, let's click the color gray selection box and let's make some adjustments here. Let's set the blur to about seven or eight percent. That blends the edges a little better and then let's use the plus and minus to dial in this a little better.
We'll just move these parameters around until we're happy with our selection. The point here is to try to get it so that we just have selected her skin and not any of the background, her eyebrows, or her eyes. Okay so something like that is fine, then we'll scroll down, we'll turn off the color gray, and then under the correction besides the color wheel, we can adjust this up and down. First, I'll show you if we go down, it'll make it look like she's sunburned which is not what we're going for here.
I'll undo that and then we'll raise it just a bit so that the overall brightness of the selection becomes a little more even overall in the skin. Let's go up with this. Okay and you can see the difference already.
Alright; and then on the color, that will go up just a bit with this to give a little more orange. That will help blend in the blemishes better with the rest of her skin, and then the last step is to blur it. So within the sharpen effect, if you sharpen it this way, it'll show her pores more, but if you go the other way it will blur her skin.
And that's it for smoothing someone's skin; all you have to do is go into HSL secondary, make your selection, increase the brightness a bit, correct the skin tones a little bit, and then blur the selection that you made; and you're done!
Ok, that should give you a head start on how to get smoother skin inside Premiere Pro CC by blurring and changing some of the settings inside the HSL secondary color correction tab inside lumetri color.
