OnOne (On1) portraiture retouching workflow
Pre-editing for Batch Proofing
quick skin retouch for multiple images for proofing
in Develop, general adjust exposure, highlights, white balance
go to Effects
Overall settings
Add Filter
Choose Skin Retouching
grab dropper tool for skin colour and select a mid tone of subject's skin (eg. forehead)
increase the skin colour range as desired
do NOT create a mask as we want to apply this to all other images from the shoot and a mask is not appropriate for this
set your skin retouch layer settings
go back to Browse
select all the images you wish to apply it to
from the menu at top, choose Sync
Retouching workflow

go to Effects
Overall settings
Add Filter
Choose Skin Retouching
grab dropper tool for skin colour and select a mid tone of subject's skin (eg. forehead)
increase the skin colour range to maximum to get as much skin as possible included - this will include non-skin but that will be excluded via a mask:
On the Mask menu at top of program, choose View Mode and select Red Overlay and turn on Mask Preview (O or icon at bottom of screen) to make it easier to see where you will paint in on the skin (the red area will be the parts NOT included in the mask)
click on masking icon to left of layer title
click on Invert so you can then paint in the effect on the skin
masking brush on far left should already be selected
ensure the settings at top of screen are Paint In, set feather to around 50, adjust size of brush
consider using the Perfect Brush, especially if subject has darker coloured hair
paint over the skin you wish to be included, does not need to be super accurate
now fine tune the retouch:
zoom in to see it better
blemish slider helps to reduce medium sized issues such as acne, wrinkles - adjust as desired, perhaps around 30
smoothing slider reduces the pore structure so perhaps use a mid setting (makes it a bit plasticky if too much)
shine reduces shine so adjust as needed perhaps in mid settings
evenness slider evens out hue variations - may need to use around 30 (too high looks fake)
zoom out to Fit view as one tends to apply too much in the zoom view
use the layer opacity slider to adjust how much of the effect you want
