“Thank you Pratik. It is a real eye opening. By choice the majority of my models are dark skin women. With your explanations I am a bit more confident on how to make my end products more appealing. Thank you and happy holidays.”

“Absolutely wonderful example of how to retouch darker skin tones! Watching Pratik work his way through a full retouch is delightful. His manner is easy going and the way he explains the how and why of utilizing a particular technique is excellent. I was unsure about my retouching abilities on darker skin before watching this (overwhelmed and terrified actually). Now I am confident that I can consistently achieve a look that is similar because of the way Pratik explains everything. Highly recommended!”
