Does it rhyme with demon, whizz, or some?
Ewww.. pervy boy. NO! *slaps hand*
I would guess glycerine or vaseline.
Maybe Vaseline... I would think glycerine would burn her eyes.

In case something evaded me ... what's soooooo grrrrreat about performing the most basic dodge&burn step ?
What comes next ? The Ultimate Color Boost (!!!). = Crank up the saturation slider until your eyes hurt. Wow !!
C'mon guys I bet you can do better.
While there was dodging and burning done to the original high key image that isn't what the tutorial is about. It's about bringing out highlights and more detail. Did you even bother watching the video??
Unfortunately I watched the whole vid eagerly waiting for some cool new tricks. And all I got was some basic technique instead of something that brings me (or my highlights) "to the next level". I mean creating a luminosity mask is not what I would call breathtaking.
