not sure if the question is for Processing or for GN talk...
I am having dificultes to post-process and retouch skin from my last shower-shoot(1st time ever). Normaly I do a surface blur layer and ajust it and mask it...but it is really hard when you have water all over the model and you do want to keep that part sharp. Can anyone help?
thnx in advance.

Duplicate layer, apply high-pass at a radius that suits the water drops, blend to linear light mode. keep this layer above whatever layer you retouch skin on and adjust the opacity to suit.

No matter what you do to the base layer after that, the water drops will still be there.
