    Would love to have more understanding of the controls with the Mixer Brush. The custom choices, wet, load, mix and flow

    This such a great tip!! I have been so frustrated trying to use the replace color tool all theses years.
    Thank you so much!

  3. Working in a lab and pre GREAT adjustment layers, I would do this and then grab the history brush to bring back the lips. Layers were frowned upon in case we forgot to flatten and send it to print. I wish all images given to me to work with had such perfect colors!! 🙂

    I don’t know how you do it – but I needed this very tip for something I’m working on. Great timing! The last thing you did just in time for what I was working on was the path blur. Spooky!

    Thanks for this. It is a great tip. I used this method from your last video on a project and it made what I thought would be a difficult task very easy and quick. I love these fast tutorials that get right to the point and can be used in real world projects.

    Could you advise if the dress was plain white how to change it to a different colour please. Have been struggling with that.

    Thanks. I’m excited to try this method out–a method I’d never heard of before.
