Retouching… Much Ado About Nothing
By Frédérique Renaut
Is the April issue of French Marie Claire “throwing stones into the water? ” Their whole issue is withoutany retouching! Finally the readers will be exposed to the RAW truthwithout the artificial frills!
Well, almost… We have to pass through the multiplicity of advertising pages that are as expected, heavilyretouched before accessing the first editorial photo that has not beentarnished by that Bad Boy on the Block, Mr. Photoshop. I personallyreally enjoyed the painted portrait of Julia Roberts with absolutelynatural eyelashes for Lancôme and the no eyelid-ed Sharon Stone forDior. You can even see Julia Roberts beauty mark under her eye! Nudge,Nudge, Wink, Wink, say no more, say no more.
Bad digital retouching can be worst enemy of celebrities…
