One of the most popular ones was about how to smooth skin in Final Cut Pro without any plugins… but a lot of you said the 1-minute format made it feel way too rushed. Fair. So here’s a brand new version of that tutorial, giving this trick the time it deserves. No paid tools, no gimmicks, just a super clean skin retouching technique using only the built-in tools in Final Cut Pro. Whether you’re editing interviews, weddings, or lifestyle content, this is one of those subtle upgrades that instantly makes your work feel more polished and professional. In this Final Cut Pro tutorial, you’ll learn: ✔️ How to isolate skin tones with a color mask ✔️ How to add a shape mask to refine your selection ✔️ Tips for softening skin without making it look fake ✔️ A clean way to retouch distracting blemishes or roughness in-camera If you want to level up your footage without plugins, this one’s for you.
