So I know that the silver beauty dish is going to kick out a lot harder light. I was wondering though if you could still get really nice specular highlights by adding some light baby oil or suntan oil to the models skin?

Is this how the effect is done naturally in lighting with minimal post processing? Obviously there is some D&B on images but baby oil is common I assume?

Thanks,
Steven

Like so.

I think you should ask that in the "photography" forum.
but in any case I think most of the effect is done in post anyway... you just need a good retoucher wink

I see pictures like this a lot, and I always wonder why the digital artist didn't treat the neck and shoulders in a manner similar to the face.

The whole image has strong shadows so i would remove that a little bit everywhere.
If you remove the shadows in shoulders and neck will not look good cause it has shadows in the head as well.
