    So this is weird one and I hope it's ok.

    There's a been a couple of threads requesting The Secret Sauce from
    https://hellolittleprops.com/collec...cret-sauce-finishing-action-set-for-photoshop

    I nearly went ahead and purchased it...then I did a bit of work and had a look at what it does.
    So from various other actions available on the site I made a set of actions that do the same thing.

    Give it a try and let me know what you think.

    It looks like you made a worthy duplicate. Works great for my portraiture work. Thanks!

    That's great mate...glad you like it...There's a couple of things I left out that I normally use as well...I could add them and update it. Or maybe best to leave it as is?

    Maybe you could create a section inside it (named MyBonusWork) and add it to your Set

    Will do that...It's basically a couple of thing that suit certain images more.
