SkinFiner

Digital photos taken with a smartphone or a camera are quite the norm nowadays, especially since they can be improved without too much effort.

SkinFiner is one of the apps you can turn to in such situations, as it simplifies the task of retouching your portraits.

This application strives to be as straightforward as possible so that even novices rely on it to retouch the look of their digital pictures.

You only need to load the graphics file you are interested in, either by browsing to its location or by dragging and dropping it onto the main window. Multiple source formats are supported, such as BMP, JPG, PNG or TIFF, but also several RAW filetypes (like ARW, CR2, CRW, DCR, DNG, ERF, MRW, NEF, ORF or RW2).

Once the image has been loaded within SkinFiner, it gets processed automatically, and you examine the differences by analyzing the original and the enhanced pics side by side.

Nonetheless, you can still modify any values if you are not satisfied with the outcome. You can apply one of the available presets, or you can manually tamper with the skin mask or smoothing degree.

You can edit the skin tone by adjusting the hue, saturation, brightness, and contrast, along with the highlights and shadows.

After you are pleased with the result, you can convert the picture to BMP, TIFF, PNG or JPG, then rename it by setting up a suitable pattern. The size and resolution can also be tweaked to your liking.

You can also strip all metadata from the graphics file, namely the camera information, the copyright and author details, or the location and GPS data.

To wrap it up, SkinFiner can prove to be a handy solution if you want to improve the appearance of a digital portrait, then customize its settings before saving it to a location you select.
