Retouches, that is. There's something about making somebody look better...

Anyway, Katherine Heigl at the Academy Awards. Am I the only one who thought she looked WAY too made up? Her MA went crazy with the bronzer. I hated how her lipstick matched her dress, too.
Before:


After:
EDIT// Took Mark's advice and took lips from another image (random Scarlett Johansson) in an attempt for more dimension to her lips.

(Previous version)


Toned down the makeup on the lips and cheeks - I think she looks much more natural this way. What do you think?

the truth is so sad. you should try thickening her hair around the hair line.
and maybe reduce some frizz.
