Does PowerDirector 19 Ultimate have functionality that can be used to adjust video to make people look prettier (such as smooth skin, dark grey hairs, look younger, etc.)?

Thanks & regards.

If you want to make people look prettier, try alcohol...later in the evening can be helpful... HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
Nvidia GTX 960(4GB)/16GB DDR3/
Canon Vixia HV30/HF-M40/HF-M41/HF-G20/Olympus E-PL5.
Tape capture using 6 VCR, TBC-1000, Elite BVP4+, Sony D8 camcorder with TBC.

It may be far better to apply a diffusion filter for smooth skin while recording video like the pros do in Hollywood. See this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAxlTFi2bG4 . I agree with Barry. Some mirrorless, smartphone, camcorder, and name brand cameras that I have seen have a beauty face or soft skin setting to make people have smooth skin and look younger in the videos. This would save in post production time without having to buy a filter or drink an excessive amount of alcohol.

Too bad PD 19 Ultimate users cannot get this plug in for free. Otherwise, I could give it a try.

Thanks & regards.

Thanks for the info but it's too late to take alchole as I need to edit existing videos.
