The Beauty Retouch panel is a Photoshop plugin for professional, high-end beauty, fashion, and portrait retouching. Designed for creative professionals who want a faster retouching workflow, improved consistency of skin and tonal work, and a decluttered workspace.

- ✓Visual Aid check layers that expose luminosity shifts and blotchiness, so you can do more precise Dodging & Burning work.
- ✓Proprietary Luminosity Selections set for unparalleled precision in color correction, color grading, and highlight/midtone/shadow work.
- ✓Final-pass & Quality Control discipline to eliminate oversight errors before anything leaves your desk.

The Beauty Retouch panel is for photographers and retouchers in beauty, fashion, and portraits, who want a faster retouching workflow, more consistent skin and tonal results, and a decluttered workspace.
It isn't a replacement for skill. It's most helpful once you already know the core retouching techniques, and it gives beginners a professional structure to work within.
Among our 16,700+ Beauty Retouch users worldwide are working photographers and retouchers in beauty, fashion, editorial, and portrait work, and some rely on the panel for product retouching too. Professionals and ambitious beginners alike: see what they say in their testimonials.
Brand new to retouching? Start with the free Photoshop Essentials for Beauty Retouching course included with your panel and accessible from your Member Account after the purchase, and grow into the workflow from there.
The RA Panels are subscription-based, which is the industry standard for professional software. Most of our users are working photographers and retouchers who rely on the panels nearly every day, so when a regular Photoshop update breaks something, we fix it quickly.
Maintaining the panels and providing daily Customer Support is a full-time job for our small team. And the little ongoing fixes are only half of it: we keep improving the panels, and new versions land in your Member Account at no extra cost while your subscription is active.
Your annual Maintenance & Support fee $39.99 (roughly $0.10 a day) keeps our Customer Support and Development teams always ready to respond to your support requests, and the panels compatible with new Photoshop versions, and improving over time. Your first year of Maintenance & Support subscription is included in your purchase.
Prefer to pay once? The lifetime license is there for that.
Absolutely. We created the MUA Retouch panel as a makeup companion for the Beauty Retouch panel, which carries the core of the beauty, fashion and portrait retouching workflow. Each panel can be used independently, and together they are most helpful for professionals who do beauty, fashion and female portrait work: compare the panels.
We offer $50+ off the MUA Retouch panel when you buy both.
You'll get two emails: one to create your account and set a password, and a second with your order confirmation, download link and invoice. More detail here: Right after your RA Panel purchase.
