Beauty Retouching Services

Abiding by the principles of today's photo correction, minimalism and individualism are still seen as key in beauty retouching. The constant progression of technology has allowed cameras to continuously become sharper, with each upgrade separated only by months. For things that specifically require the accentuation of their details, such as jewelry, bags, and clothing, this directly equates to "better". This, however, does not apply to human features.

Prior to the advent of individualism and the culture of democratic self-representation either through ones clothing or through ones art, models used to labor tirelessly in gyms to achieve that look that editors craved for. Now, anyone, regardless of size, skin tone, and different imperfections can pose professionally for a shoot and have the outcome be considered "good". Drastic manipulation and the smearing of generic perfection into shots, which was the standard practice before, is ubiquitous now. Individual quirks are highlighted and authenticity to the naked eye is given more preference than the amount and clarity of details.

Like any other industry, fashion is shaped solely by the people who consume it, which is basically everybody. Subsequently, the post-production that goes in everything produced in its name is also subject to the same fate. Do you think the trends written above are positive ones? Which aspect of them do you like best? Feel free to let us know, and as always, have a great day!


Three Easiest Wood to Turn on a Lathe

Requiring an incredible amount of effort for even the smallest pieces of wood, woodturning enthusiasts meticulously labor in selecting their choice of wood. Even if you are only a beginning turner, it would be imperative to find the most suitable type of wood to optimize your outputs and allow yourself to enjoy the process to its fullest, so without further delays, here are the most popular types of wood for turning and why:

1. Pine is an essential for learning how to turn spindles on the lathe because of its inherent softness. After getting to the point where turning it clean for spindle work comes relatively easily, you may proceed to starting with beads and coves on a pine board. Pine is also regarded as one of the cheapest and most accessible material around. It requires little to no investment so using it as a subject for your training is highly recommended.

2. Soft Maples, commonly found as either the Norway Maple or Silver Maple, are some of the best woods for intermediate turners. Ranging from plain and light to very patterned with curls or ripples, they are a delight for beginning turners who would love trying to add diversity in their crafts. To get the most out of it, the blanks must first be processed by rough turning them quickly since they do not save well even if you use Anchorseal on its ends. Upon initial cutting, the sap would be running and the wood would easily get molds. In order to preserve its integrity, the rough outs must be bagged and the bags must be changed on a daily basis to seal off moisture that may lead to mold growth.

3. Cherry is a hard wood that requires more skill than either Maples or Pines to turn. Additionally, it is also significantly more expensive especially if you buy it pre-seasoned and in large pieces. The cost however is balanced by the wood's crisp texture and wave-like patterns which can be sheened into perfection. One way to lessen your expenses in getting it would be to find a suitably aged tree and cut it down into uniform cylinders. This will allow the wood to dry evenly and will give you a heads up of where possible cracks might lie.

Woodturning is an archaic art, and as with any art, the subject and the material can greatly hamper or heighten the apparent skill of the artist, so for turning, the wood that you use would be very much become an affecting factor for your product. Choose well and enjoy turning!

There are several different types of sugar babies out there. Some are in college, referred to as college babies, some are small town girls who amuse their benefactors with heir wide-eyed appreciation of the wonders of sophistication, and some are actually even mothers.

These daddies can usually be found within Asian countries such as South Korea and China, where the divide between the poor and the wealthy is all too evident. One particular reason for this is that these countries are framed by technological advances, and the men within the higher ranks of that frame are either too preoccupied to find a stable relationship or are too much of a nerd to approach the girls they want. Nonetheless, it's still a pretty good thing to find out that your sugar daddy isn't really older than both your parents.

3. The Typical Sugar Daddy

This type of daddy is the traditional one that comes in the foreground of our mind when we think of sugar daddies: old, rich, powerful, divorced, and have kids as old as you. These type of daddies are often times the loneliest, and the oldest. These are men who have accomplished everything in their lives but happiness. And as they reach their end game, they try to fill this absence up with sugar babies and other distractions. They usually go for the elegant, well-mannered pretty girls and use them as escort when travelling, attending events, and going on vacations.

These are the three most common types of sugar daddies we have in the Australian sugar bowl. Which one do you think suits you best? Comment below!
