Default Bridal Before and After using Actions

The eyes are a little over done, but I was working very quickly to see how fast I could get it from before to After. So I wasn't as precise as I usually would be. Took me less than 5 minutes - but like I said, I was playing around and working very fast on purpose.

1. Applied Portrait Enhancement Action that I previously made
2. Used gaussian blur to skin soften
3. sharpened eyes
4. Added maked-up with some make up actions that I previously made
5. Darkened hair

A bit too much work done on the eyes for my taste. They look unnaturally lit.

too much on the eyes for me too and the background could do with some noise reduction. I'm also not a fan of gaussian blur for skin softening as it gives for a plastic effect.
