using flash in interior shooting has a resault of red faces
does anyone know which tool in photoshop to use to make skin look normal?

I'm sure there is a standard technique
I do manage after all but every time I experience a new way using levels, contrast, color balance, gamma, desaturate or mixing channels
And most of the times I have to select the exact area…

Most of the times it is not possible to put lights on the speaker in order to get the proper resault

Selene,of course you know that i'm not an expert on photoshop,so i will just add here my way :)
Image>adjustments>Replace color >select with the -drop the red,exactly from the part of the photo which you thing that it's too much and then reduce it, reducing the rate of the saturation

If someone knows another way i would like to learn that :)
